We measure the projected correlation function w_p(r_p) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey for a flux-limited sample of 118,000 galaxies and for a volume limited subset of 22,000 galaxies with absolute magnitude M_r<-21. Both correlation…
We discuss the large scale properties of standard cold dark matter cosmological models characterizing the main features of the power-spectrum, of the two-point correlation function and of the mass variance. Both the real-space statistics…
We report the intermediate-scale (0.3 to 40 Mpc/h) clustering of 35,000 luminous early-type galaxies at redshifts 0.16 to 0.44 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We present the redshift-space two-point correlation function \xi(s), the…
The number of galaxies with measured redshifts > 1 is at present rapidly increasing, allowing for measurements of their correlation function. The correlations function is measured in redshift space, as a function of angular separation and…
Using the apparatus of correlation Gamma-function (``conditional density''), we have analyzed spatial clustering of objects from several different samples of galaxies, clusters and superclusters. On small scales the distribution of objects…
We use sample of 813 Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) with 2.6<z<3.4 to perform a detailed analysis of the redshift-space (z-space) distortions in their clustering pattern and from them derive confidence levels in the [Omega_m,beta(z=3)] plane.…
We use ensembles of high-resolution CDM simulations to investigate the shape and amplitude of the two point correlation function of rich clusters. The standard scale-invariant CDM model with $\Omega=1$ provides a poor description of the…
Presented are measurements of the observed redshift-space galaxy-galaxy autocorrelation function, xi(s), for the Las Campanas Redshift Survey (LCRS). For separations 2.0/h Mpc < s < 16.4/h Mpc, xi(s) can be approximated by a power law with…
A precise determination of the mass function is an important tool to verify cosmological predictions of the $\Lambda$CDM model and to infer more precisely the better model describing the evolution of the Universe. Galaxy clusters have been…
We examine the nature of galaxy clustering in redshift space using a method based on an expansion of the galaxian density field in Spherical Harmonics and linear theory. We derive a compact and self-consistent expression for the distortion…
We report on results from the Durham/UKST Galaxy Redshift Survey where we have found large scale ``cellular'' features in the galaxy distribution. These have spatial 2-point correlation function power significantly in excess of the…
We measure the two-point angular correlation function of a sample of 4,289,223 galaxies with r < 19.4 mag from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey as a function of photometric redshift, absolute magnitude and colour down to M_r - 5log h = -14 mag.…
We estimate J-point galaxy averaged correlation functions $\wbar_J(\theta)$ for $J=2,...,9$, in a sample of the APM Galaxy Survey with more than $1.3 \times 10^6$ galaxies and a depth $ \calD \sim 400 \Mpc$. The hierarchical amplitudes…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey is one of the first multicolor photometric and spectroscopic surveys designed to measure the statistical properties of galaxies within the local Universe. In this Letter we present some of the initial results on…
We present a clustering analysis of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) using nearly 9 000 objects from the final catalogue of the 2dF-SDSS LRG And QSO (2SLAQ) Survey. We measure the redshift-space two-point correlation function, xi(s), at the…
We investigate the dependence of galaxy clustering on the galaxy intrinsic luminosity at high redshift, using the data from the First Epoch VIMOS-VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). The size (6530 galaxies) and depth (I_{AB}<24) of the survey allows us…
We investigate how the shape of the galaxy two-point correlation function as measured in the zCOSMOS survey depends on local environment, quantified in terms of the density contrast on scales of 5 Mpc/h. We show that the flat shape…
The two-point angular correlation function, $\w$, is constructed from a catalog of 13,000 objects in 24 fields distributed over an area of 4 deg$^2$ and complete to a limit of $R = 23.5$. The amplitude and slope of our correlation function…
We calculate the correlation function of 79,091 galaxy clusters in the redshift region of $z \leq 0.5$ selected from the WH15 cluster catalog. With a weight of cluster mass, a significant baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) peak is detected…
