Significant uncertainties exist in the measured amplitude of the angular two-point correlation function of galaxies at magnitudes $I\approx26$ and fainter. Published results from HST and ground-based galaxy catalogs seem to differ by as…

Images of the Hubble Deep Field at 3.2 um, taken with the 10-m Keck Telescope, are presented. The images cover a total area of ~2.5 arcmin^2. To a 5-sigma limit of [3.2](total)=17.5 mag (Vega-relative), 11 sources are detected, 9 of which…
We present a method for measuring the Hubble parameter, H(z), and angular diameter distance, D_A(z), from the two-dimensional two-point correlation function, and validate it using LasDamas mock galaxy catalogs. Applying our method to the…
