We examine the effect of redshift space distortions on the galaxy two-point correlation function $\xi(r_p,\pi)$ as a function of separations parallel ($r_p$) and perpendicular ($\pi$) to the line of sight. We find that the relative velocity…
We report numerical results for velocity correlations in dense, gravity-driven granular flow down an inclined plane. For the grains on the surface layer, our results are consistent with experimental measurements reported by Pouliquen. We…
We present a new method of analysing and quantifying velocity structure in star forming regions suitable for the rapidly increasing quantity and quality of stellar position-velocity data. The method can be applied to data in any number of…
We analyze the deviations from Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics found in recent experiments studying velocity distributions in two-dimensional granular gases driven into a non-equilibrium stationary state by a strong vertical vibration. We show…
We compare the peculiar velocities measured in the SBF Survey of Galaxy Distances with the predictions from the density fields of the IRAS 1.2 Jy flux-limited redshift survey and the Optical Redshift Survey (ORS) to derive simultaneous…
Zagarola and Smits developed an empirical velocity parameter for scaling the outer region of the turbulent boundary layer velocity profile that has been widely applied to experimental datasets. Plots of the scaled defect profiles indicate…
We characterize the peculiar velocity field of the local large-scale structure reconstructed from the $2M++$ survey, by treating it as a fluid, extracting the divergence via different approximations over a range pf averaged scales. This…
New arguments supporting the reality of large-scale fluctuations in the density of the visible matter in deep galaxy surveys are presented. A statistical analysis of the radial distributions of galaxies in the COSMOS and HDF-N deep fields…
The diffusive properties in velocity fields whose small scales are parameterized by non $\delta$-correlated noise is investigated using multiscale technique. The analytical expression of the eddy diffusivity tensor is found for a 2D steady…
This work reports on a study of the spatially coarse-grained velocity dispersion in cosmological N-body simulations (OCDM and Lambda-CDM models) as a function of time (redshifts z=0-4) and of the coarsening length (0.6-20 Mpc/h). The main…
I address the following issues: All bulk velocity measurements (but one) are consistent with our standard gravitational instability theory. New accurate data and reconstruction methods allow high-resolution dynamical analysis nearby,…
The energy density of a scalar field $\phi$ with potential $V(\phi) \propto \phi^{-\alpha}$, $\alpha > 0$, behaves like a time-variable cosmological constant that could contribute significantly to the present energy density. Predictions of…
We propose a method for deriving a dynamical lower bound on $\Omega$ from diverging flows in low-density regions, based on the fact that large outflows are not expected in a low-$\Omega$ universe. The velocities are assumed to be induced by…
The standard method of measuring the galaxy pairwise velocity dispersion on small scales is heavily weighted by the densest regions in a way that is difficult to calibrate. We propose a new statistic which measures the small-scale velocity…
We show that spatial correlations in a stochastic large scale velocity field in an otherwise smooth intergalactic medium (homogeneous comoving density) superposed on the general Hubble flow, may cause a `line-like' structure in QSO spectra…
(Abridged) In our previous work we found a statistically significant offset Delta V = 27 m/s between the radial velocities of the HC3N(2-1) and NH3(1,1) transitions observed in molecular cores from the Milky Way. This may indicate that the…
We present an analysis of the two-point peculiar velocity correlation function using data from the CosmicFlows catalogues. The Millennium and MultiDark Planck 2 N-body simulations are used to estimate cosmic variance and uncertainties due…
The closely related issues of (1) reconstructing density and velocity fields from redshift survey and distance indicator data and (2) determining cosmological parameters from such data sets are discussed. I focus on possible explanations…
We study the possibility of consistent extension of MDI full-disc helioseismic campaigns with the growing data set of HMI observations. To do so, we down-sample and filter the HMI Dopplegrams so that the resulting spatial power spectrum is…
We study the formation and the dynamics of correlations in the velocity field for 1D and 2D cooling granular gases with the assumption of negligible density fluctuations (``Homogeneous Velocity-correlated Cooling State'', HVCS). It is shown…
