The power spectrum (PS) of {\it mass} density fluctuations, independent of ``biasing", is estimated from the Mark3 Catalog of Peculiar Velocities of galaxies using Bayesian statistics. A parametric model is assumed for the PS, and the free…

We consider a measure of the peculiar velocity field derived from the Mark III compilation of 2900 spiral galaxies (Willick \etal 1996b), using an analysis that is substantially free of bias (Nusser and Davis 1995). We expand the velocity…
Amongst the most popular explanations for dark energy are modified theories of gravity. The galaxy overdensity and peculiar velocity fields help us to constrain the growth rate of structure and distinguish different models of gravity. We…

Scatter in distance indicators introduces two conceptually distinct systematic biases when reconstructing peculiar velocity fields from redshifts and distances. The first is distance Malmquist bias (dMB) that affects individual distance…
Cosmological parameters can be measured by comparing peculiar velocities with those predicted from a galaxy density field. Previous work has tested the accuracy of this approach with N-body simulations, but generally on idealised mock…
