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…

We present a comparison between the peculiar velocity fields measured from the SFI all-sky Sbc-Sc Tully-Fisher catalog and that derived from the \iras 1.2 Jy redshift survey galaxy distribution. The analysis is based on the expansion of…

We have used the Optical Redshift Survey (ORS; Santiago et al. 1995) to construct the gravity field due to fluctuations in the galaxy density field out to distances of 8000 km/s. At large scales where linear theory applies, the comparison…

We present analysis of local large scale flows using the Surface Brightness Fluctuation (SBF) Survey for the distances to 300 early-type galaxies. Our models of the distribution function of mean velocity and velocity dispersion at each…

(abridged) We perform a reconstruction of the cosmological large scale flows in the nearby Universe using two complementary observational sets. The first, the SFI++ sample of Tully-Fisher (TF) measurements of galaxies, provides a direct…

Recent progress in the measurement of relative distances to galaxies has been quite substantial, and catalogs of 3000 galaxies with distances are soon to become available. The peculiar {\it velocity} field (deviations from Hubble flow)…

We present a self consistent nonparametric model of the local cosmic velocity field based on the density distribution in the PSCz redshift survey of IRAS galaxies. The error analysis, carried out on mock PSCz catalogues constructed from…

We compare the peculiar velocities of nearby SNe Ia with those predicted by the gravity fields of full sky galaxy catalogs. The method provides a powerful test of the gravitational instability paradigm and strong constraints on the density…

We compare Tully-Fisher (TF) data for 838 galaxies within cz=3000 km/sec from the Mark III catalog to the peculiar velocity and density fields predicted from the 1.2 Jy IRAS redshift survey. Our goal is to test the relation between the…

We compare the peculiar velocity field within 65 $h^{-1}$ Mpc predicted from 2MASS photometry and public redshift data to three independent peculiar velocity surveys based on type Ia supernovae, surface brightness fluctuations in…

The properties of the velocity field in the local volume (cz < 550 km/s) have been difficult to constrain due to a lack of a consistent set of galaxy distances. The sparse observations available to date suggest a remarkably quiet flow, with…

We present a comparison between the peculiar velocity field measured from the ENEAR all-sky $D_n-\sigma$ catalog and that derived from the galaxy distribution of the IRAS PSCz redshift survey. The analysis is based on a modal expansion of…

Given a redshift survey of galaxies with measurements of apparent magnitudes, we present a novel method for measuring the growth rate $f(\Omega)$ of cosmological linear perturbations. We use the galaxy distribution within the survey to…

We test and reject the claim of Segal et al. (1993) that the correlation of redshifts and flux densities in a complete sample of IRAS galaxies favors a quadratic redshift-distance relation over the linear Hubble law. This is done, in…

We present a measurement of the Hubble constant $H_0$ from surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) distances for 63 bright, mainly early-type galaxies out to 100 Mpc observed with the Wide Field Camera 3 Infrared Channel (WFC3/IR) on the…

We compare the peculiar velocities derived from the I-band Tully-Fisher (TF) relation for 989 field spiral galaxies in the SFI catalogue with the predicted velocity field derived from the IRAS PSCz galaxy redshift survey. We assume linear…

Redshift space distortions on large scales can be used to measure the linear growth rate parameter $\ff \approx \Omega^{0.6}/b$. I report here measurements of such distortions in the IRAS 2 Jy, 1.2 Jy, and QDOT redshift surveys, finding…

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…

We only see a small fraction of the matter in the universe, but the rest gives itself away by the impact of its gravity. The distortions from pure Hubble flow (or peculiar velocities) that this matter creates have the potential to be a…

All direct measurements of peculiar velocities of glaxies assume the Hubble law at low redshifts. However, it has been suggested by Segal et al (1993) that the correlation of redshifts and fluxes in a complete sample of IRAS galaxies is…
