We have developed a model to describe two-point correlation functions of clusters of galaxies in X-ray flux-limited surveys. Our model properly takes account of nonlinear gravitational evolution of mass fluctuations, redshift-space…
We cross-correlate the 100 um Improved Reprocessing of the IRAS Survey (IRIS) map and galaxy clusters at 0.1 < z < 0.3 in the maxBCG catalogue taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, measuring an angular cross-power spectrum over multipole…
Weak gravitational lensing alters the apparent separations between observed sources, potentially affecting clustering statistics. We derive a general expression for the lensing deflection which is valid for any three-point statistic, and…
The population of compact extragalactic sources contribute to the non-Gaussianity at Cosmic Microwave Background frequencies. We study their non-Gaussianity using publicly available full-sky simulations. We introduce a parametrisation to…
We extend the Fourier transform based method for the analysis of galaxy redshift surveys of Feldman, Kaiser & Peacock (1994: FKP) to model luminosity-dependent clustering. In a magnitude limited survey, galaxies at high redshift are more…
We show that the predictions of the recent physical model by Granato et al. (2001) are fully consistent with the available estimates of the clustering properties of galaxies at (sub)-mm wavelengths. The model is then exploited to compute…
We study the observed evolution of galaxy clustering as a function of redshift. We find that the clustering of galaxies decreases as we go from observations of the local Universe to $z \sim 2$. On the other hand, clustering of the Lyman…
Naive estimates of the statistics of large scale structure and weak lensing power spectrum measurements that include only Gaussian errors exaggerate their scientific impact. Non-linear evolution and finite volume effects are both…
The two-point angular correlation function of galaxies, \wte, has been computed from a new survey of faint galaxies covering a 2 deg$^2$ area near the North Galactic Pole. This survey, which is complete to limiting magnitudes \jmag=24 and…
We present a study on the variations of the luminosity function of galaxies around clusters in a numerical simulation with semi-analytic galaxies, attempting to detect these variations in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey. We subdivide the…
The WARPS cluster survey is based on the ROSAT PSPC archive of pointed observations. It includes extended X-ray sources, detected with the Voronoi Tessellation and Percolation algorithm (VTP), and point-like X-ray sources with non-stellar…
(abridged) The evolution of galaxy clustering from z=0 to z=4.5 is analyzed using the angular correlation function and the photometric redshift distribution of galaxies brighter than I_{AB}\le 28.5 in the HDF North. The reliability of the…
We present our results on multiplicity and $p_T$ fluctuations at LHC energies in the framework of the clustering of color sources. In this approach, elementary color sources -strings- overlap forming clusters, so the number of effective…
Constraints on the validity of the hierarchical gravitational instability theory and the evolution of biasing are presented based upon measurements of higher order clustering statistics in the Deeprange Survey, a catalog of $\sim710,000$…
We describe the angular power spectrum of resolved sources at 3.6 microns (L-band) in Spitzer imaging data of the GOODS HDF-N, the GOODS CDF-S, and the NDWFS Bootes field in several source magnitude bins. We also measure angular power…
We investigated the optical properties of 7 clusters of galaxies observed in three colors over the range of absolute magnitudes -24 < M < -12. Our aim is to estimate the Luminosity Function and the total cluster luminosity of our sample in…
We compute the two-point angular correlation function $w(\theta)$ for a sample of $\sim$ 1700 galaxies to a magnitude-limit equivalent to $R \sim 29.5$ using a catalog derived from the Hubble Deep Field images. A non zero value of…
In Stage-IV imaging surveys, a significant amount of the cosmologically useful information is due to sources whose images overlap with those of other sources on the sky. The cosmic shear signal is primarily encoded in the estimated shapes…
Galaxy clusters are hotter and more X-ray luminous than in quiescence while they undergo major mergers, which also transiently increase their strong-lensing efficiency. We use semi-analytic models for both effects to study how cluster…
We investigate the implications for the Planck Surveyor of the recent sub-millimetre number counts obtained using the SCUBA camera. Since it observes at the same frequency as one of the higher frequency science channels on Planck, SCUBA can…
