Methods for inferring the velocity field from the peculiar velocity data are described and applied to old and newer data. Inhomogeneous Malmquist bias and ways to avoid it are discussed and utilized. We infer that these biases are probably…
Our statistical studies comprise the mean relative velocity and velocity correlation for pairs of galaxies as a function of separation, and a bulk flow analysis determined on spheres of $10 h^{-1}$ $Mpc$ radius. In order to test the…
Galaxy peculiar velocities are excellent cosmological probes provided that biases inherent to their measurements are contained before any study. This paper proposes a new algorithm based on an object point process model whose probability…
Galaxy distances and derived radial peculiar velocity catalogs constitute valuable datasets to study the dynamics of the Local Universe. However, such catalogs suffer from biases whose effects increase with the distance. Malmquist biases…
Much current interest in cosmology has revolved around the peculiar velocity field of galaxies. Many methods have been proposed to derive this, probably the most prominent being POTENT (Dekel et al. 1990). However, this is prone to many…
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…
This paper investigates the impact of Malmquist bias on the distance to the Virgo cluster determined by the H_0 Key Project using M100, and consequently on the derived value of H_0. Malmquist bias is a volume-induced statistical effect…
This paper examines the use of Monte Carlo simulations to understand statistical concepts in A/B testing and Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs). We discuss the applicability of simulations in understanding false positive rates and estimate…
How do peculiar velocities affect observed voids? To answer this question we use the VIDE toolkit to identify voids in mock galaxy populations embedded within an N-body simulation both with and without peculiar velocities included. We…
Recent advancements in multispectral (MS) and hyperspectral (HS) microscopy have focused on sensor and system improvements, yet sample processing remains overlooked. We conducted an analysis of the literature, revealing that 40 percent of…
Upcoming surveys for galaxy clusters using the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect are potentially sensitive enough to create a peculiar velocity catalog. The statistics of these peculiar velocities are sensitive to cosmological parameters. We…
Monte Carlo simulations are based on the manipulation of random numbers to evaluate probable outcomes, with applicability in a variety of different fields. By assigning probabilities, which can be determined a priori, to various events, it…
The reconstruction of the peculiar velocity field from the 1.936~Jy iras selected sample of galaxies is compared to a similar reconstruction from an optically selected sample. A general method for combining different samples to reconstruct…
We compare the set of local galaxies having dynamically measured black holes with a large, unbiased sample of galaxies extracted from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We confirm earlier work showing that the majority of black hole hosts have…
We present a forward-modelled velocity field reconstruction algorithm that performs the reconstruction of the mass density field using only peculiar velocity data. Our method consistently accounts for the inhomogeneous Malmquist bias using…
Pixel-space full spectrum fitting exploiting non-linear $\chi^2$ minimization became a \emph{de facto} standard way of deriving internal kinematics from absorption line spectra of galaxies and star clusters. However, reliable estimation of…
In this paper the influence of galaxy cluster halo environment on the deflection properties of its galaxies is investigated. For this purpose circular and elliptical projected cluster haloes obeying Einasto density profiles are multiply…
We present an analysis of selection biases in the M-sigma relation using Monte- Carlo simulations including the sphere of influence resolution selection bias and a selection bias in the velocity dispersion distribution. We find that the…
The microturbulent approximation of turbulent motions is widely used in radiative transfer calculations. Mainly motivated by its simple computational application it is probably in many cases an oversimplified treatment of the dynamical…
This paper presents an in-depth mathematical analysis of the Monte Carlo replica method, commonly used in global fitting studies within the high-energy physics theory field. For the first time, we offer a rigorous derivation of the…
