Gravitational clustering broadens the count-in-cells distribution of galaxies for surveys along uncorrelated (well-separated) lines of sight beyond Poisson noise. A number of methods have proposed to measure this excess "cosmic" variance to…
Focusing on the electron and positron spectrum measured with CALET, which shows characteristic structures, we calculate flux contributions of cosmic rays escaped from supernova remnants, which were randomly born. We adopt a Monte Carlo…
A technique to compute the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) of the Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise-Ratio (SINR) for a wireless link with a multi-antenna, Linear, Minimum-Mean-Square-Error (MMSE) receiver in the presence of…
Photon counts statistics have recently been proven to provide a sensitive observable for characterizing gamma-ray source populations and for measuring the composition of the gamma-ray sky. In this work, we generalize the use of the standard…
Collisionless shocks are one of the most powerful particle accelerators in the Universe. In the heliosphere, type II solar radio bursts are signatures of electrons accelerated by collisionless shocks launched at the Sun. Spectral…
Optimal analyses using the 2-point functions of large-scale structure probes require accurate covariance matrices. A covariance matrix of the 2-point function comprises the disconnected part and the connected part. While the connected…
A method of counts-in-cells analysis of galaxy distribution is investigated with arbitrary smoothing functions in obtaining the galaxy counts. We explore the possiblity of optimizing the smoothing function, considering a series of…
The relative positions of the high and low surface brightness regions of radio-loud active galaxies in the 3CR sample were found by Fanaroff and Riley to be correlated with their luminosity. We revisit this canonical relationship with a…
The cosmic radio dipole is an anisotropy in the number counts of radio sources, analogous to the dipole seen in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Measurements of source counts of large radio surveys have shown that though the radio…
We present a novel technique for calculating the two-point autocorrelation function of the Lyman-alpha forest based on the relation between the two-point correlation function and the Neighbor Probability Distribution Functions. The…
We introduce a model for the spatial distribution of cell phone antennas in a urban environment. After showing that the complete spatial randomness (homogeneous Poisson distribution) hypothesis does not hold, we propose a model in which…
Accurate mock catalogues are essential for assessing systematics in the cosmological analysis of large galaxy surveys. Anisotropic two-point clustering measurements from the same simulation show some scatter for different lines of sight…
We derive in this paper expressions for the covariance matrix of the cosmic shear two-point correlation functions which are readily applied to any survey geometry. Furthermore, we consider the more special case of a simple survey geometry…
This article considers the detection of point sources in two dimensional astronomical images. The detection scheme we propose is based on peak statistics. We discuss the example of the detection of far galaxies in Cosmic Microwave…
The observed two-point angular correlation function, w(theta), of mJy radio sources exhibits the puzzling feature of a power-law behaviour up to very large (almost 10 degrees) angular scales which cannot be accounted for in the standard…
In a companion paper we presented a statistical model for the blazar population, consisting of distributions for the unbeamed radio luminosity function and the Lorentz factor distribution of each of the BL Lac and Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar…
Due to late time non-linearities, the location of the acoustic peak in the two-point galaxy correlation function is a redshift-dependent quantity, thus it cannot be simply employed as a cosmological standard ruler. This has motivated the…
We report the investigation of spatial distribution of quasars using two different methods: the statistical study by means of 2-point correlation function and direct search for structures such as previously reported Large Quasar Groups.…
Weak gravitational lensing requires precise measurements of galaxy shapes and therefore an accurate knowledge of the PSF model. The latter can be a source of systematics that affect the shear two-point correlation function. A key stake of…
Low-frequency radio observations are revealing an increasing number of diffuse synchrotron sources from galaxy clusters, dominantly in the form of radio halos or radio relics. The existence of this diffuse synchrotron emission indicates the…
