We use rich clusters of galaxies in the Northern and Southern Galactic hemispheres up to a redshift z=0.12 to determine the cluster correlation function. We show that superclusters of galaxies and voids between them form a moderately…

We investigate the distribution of clusters of galaxies and determine the cluster correlation function and power spectrum. Clusters of galaxies located in rich superclusters with at least 8 members form a quasiregular network of…

We use the two-point correlation function in redshift space, $\xi(s)$, to study the clustering of the galaxies and groups of the Nearby Optical Galaxy (NOG) sample, which is a nearly all-sky, complete, magnitude-limited sample of $\sim$7000…

We have developed a parameter-independent method to detect local maxima of the two-point correlation function. By applying it to two samples of rich Abell clusters of galaxies with redshift limits z<0.08 and z<0.12 we detect three maxima…

We measure the angular two-point correlation function of sub-millimeter galaxies (SMGs) from 1.1-millimeter imaging of the COSMOS field with the AzTEC camera and ASTE 10-meter telescope. These data yields one of the largest contiguous…

We present new estimates of the spatial two-point correlation function of rich clusters of galaxies selected from the APM Galaxy Survey. We have measured redshifts for a sample of $364$ clusters out to a depth of $\sim 450\hmpc$. The…

We present measurements of the angular correlation function of galaxies selected from a B_J=23.5 multicolour survey of two 5 degree by 5 degree fields located at high galactic latitudes. The galaxy catalogue of approximately 400,000…

We present measurements of the angular correlation function of galaxies selected from the first field of the H-ATLAS survey. Careful removal of the background from galactic cirrus is essential, and currently dominates the uncertainty in our…

We investigate properties of the correlation function of clusters of galaxies using geometrical models. On small scales the correlation function depends on the shape and the size of superclusters. On large scales it describes the geometry…

We identify close pairs of galaxies from 278 deg^2 of Sloan Digital Sky Survey commissioning imaging data. The pairs are drawn from a sample of 330,041 galaxies with 18 < r^* < 20. We determine the angular correlation function of galaxy…

Galaxies are not uniformly distributed in space. On large scales the Universe displays coherent structure, with galaxies residing in groups and clusters on scales of ~1-3 Mpc/h, which lie at the intersections of long filaments of galaxies…

The two-point correlation function of the galaxy distribution is a key cosmological observable that allows us to constrain the dynamical and geometrical state of our Universe. To measure the correlation function we need to know both the…

We have found that the two-point correlation function of the APM clusters of galaxies has an amplitude much higher than that claimed by the APM group. As the richness limit increases from R = 53 to 80, the correlation length increases from…
