Recently, scale-scale correlations have been detected in the distributions of quasar's Ly$\alpha$ absorption lines and the maps of cosmic temperature fluctuations. In this paper, we investigate the scale-scale correlations in galaxy…
On large scales, the higher order moments of the mass distribution, $S_J=\xibar_J/\xibar_2^{J-1}$, e.g., the skewness $S_3$ and kurtosis $S_4$, can be predicted using non-linear perturbation theory. Comparison of these predictions with…
Models with late time cosmic acceleration, such as the Lambda-dominated CDM model, predict a freeze out for the growth of linear gravitational potential at moderate redshift z<1, what can be observed as temperature anisotropies in the CMB:…
We discuss how different theoretical predictions for the variance $\sigma^2$ of the distribution of radio sources can be matched to measurements from the FIRST survey at different flux limits. The predictions are given by the integration of…
In the near future, cosmology will enter the wide and deep galaxy survey area allowing high-precision studies of the large scale structure of the universe in three dimensions. To test cosmological models and determine their parameters…
We develop a model for correlations of cosmic microwave background anisotropy on the largest angular scales, based on standard causal geometrical relationships in slow-roll inflation. Unlike standard models based on quantized field modes,…
The 2-point angular correlation function of galaxies, \wt, has been computed on equatorial fields observed with the CTIO 4m prime focus, within a total area of 2.31 deg$^2$. In the magnitude range $19\le m_R \le 21.5$, corresponding to…
We attempt to put constraints on different cosmological and biasing models by combining the recent clustering results of X-ray sources in the local ($z\le 0.1$) and distant universe ($z\sim 1$). To this end we compare the measured angular…
Observational evidence shows that gravitational lensing induces an angular correlation between the distribution of galaxies and much more distant QSOs. We use weak gravitational lensing theory to calculate this angular correlation, updating…
In order to investigate whether galaxy structures are compatible with the predictions of the standard LCDM cosmology, we focus here on the analysis of several simple and basic statistical properties of the galaxy density field. Namely, we…
Clustering statistics are compared in the Automatic Plate Machine (APM) and the Edinburgh/Durham Southern Galaxy Catalogue (EDSGC) angular galaxy surveys. Both surveys were independently constructed from scans of the same adjacent UK…
The null hypothesis that the three dimensional power spectrum measured from the APM Survey is consistent with the one dimensional power spectrum measured from the pencil beams surveys of Broadhurst et al and of Szalay et al is tested. The…
We use high-resolution dissipationless simulations of the concordance flat LCDM model to make predictions for the galaxy--mass (GM) correlations and compare them to the recent SDSS weak lensing measurements.We use a simple observationally…
We show how to simulate the clustering of rich clusters of galaxies using a technique based on the Zel'dovich approximation. This method well reproduces the spatial distribution of clusters obtainable from full N-body simulations at a…
We investigate the origin of the large clustering signal detected in the angular distribution of the radio sources in the TGSS catalog. To do so, we cross-correlate the angular position of the radio sources with the Cosmic Microwave…
Cross-correlating the lensing signals of galaxies and comic microwave background (CMB) fluctuations is expected to provide valuable cosmological information. In particular it may help tighten constraints on parameters describing the…
The smaller the angular scales on which the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) are probed the more important their distortion due to gravitational lensing becomes. Here we investigate the maxima and minima of the CMB…
Using numerical simulations of cluster formation in the standard CDM model (SCDM) and in a low-density, flat CDM model with a cosmological constant (LCDM), we investigate the gravitational lensing explanation for the reported associations…
We estimate J-point galaxy averaged correlation functions $\wbar_J(\theta)$ for $J=2,...,9$, in a sample of the APM Galaxy Survey with more than $1.3 \times 10^6$ galaxies and a depth $ \calD \sim 400 \Mpc$. The hierarchical amplitudes…
This paper presents a comparison of the predictions for the 2 and 3-point correlation functions of density fluctuations, xi_2 and xi_3, in gravitational perturbation theory (PT) against large Cold Dark Matter (CDM) simulations. This…
