Shaun Cole,Will J. Percival,John A. Peacock,Peder Norberg,Carlton M. Baugh,Carlos S. Frenk,Ivan K. Baldry,J. Bland-Hawthorn,T. Bridges,R. D. Cannon,Matthew Colless,Chris A. Collins,W. J. Couch,Nicholas Cross,Gary Dalton,Vince Eke,R. De Propris,Simon P. Driver,George Efstathiou,Richard S. Ellis,Karl Glazebrook,Carole Jackson,Adrian Jenkins,O. Lahav,Ian Lewis,Stuart Lumsden,Steve Maddox,Darren Madgwick,Bruce A. Peterson,William J. Sutherland,Keith Taylor +30 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a power spectrum analysis of the final 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey is presented, employing a direct Fourier method, and the covariance matrix for the power-spectrum estimates is determined using two different approaches to the construction of mock surveys.
Journal ArticleDOI
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: correlation functions, peculiar velocities and the matter density of the Universe
Ed Hawkins,Steve Maddox,Shaun Cole,Ofer Lahav,Darren Madgwick,Peder Norberg,John A. Peacock,Ivan K. Baldry,Carlton M. Baugh,Joss Bland-Hawthorn,T. Bridges,R. D. Cannon,Matthew Colless,Chris A.

Percival,Bruce A. Peterson,William J. Sutherland,Keith Taylor +29 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed analysis of the two-point correlation function, from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS), was presented, which can be fit by a power-law, with r_0=5.05+/-0.28 Mpc/h.
Journal ArticleDOI
A measurement of the cosmological mass density from clustering in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey
John A. Peacock,Shaun Cole,Peder Norberg,Carlton M. Baugh,Joss Bland-Hawthorn,T. Bridges,R. D. Cannon,Matthew Colless,Chris A. Collins,Warrick J. Couch,Gavin Dalton,K. Deeley,R. De Propris,Simon P. Driver,George Efstathiou,Richard S. Ellis,Carlos S. Frenk,Karl Glazebrook,Carole Jackson,Ofer Lahav,Ian Lewis,Stuart Lumsden,Steve Maddox,Will J. Percival,Bruce A. Peterson,Ian Price,William J. Sutherland,Keith Taylor +27 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the redshifts of more than 141,000 galaxies from the two-degree-field galaxy redshift survey to determine the parameter beta = Omega 0.43 +- 0.07, where Omega is the total mass-density parameter and b is a measure of the bias of the luminous galaxies in the survey.
Journal ArticleDOI
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The bias of galaxies and the density of the Universe
Licia Verde,Alan Heavens,Will J. Percival,Sabino Matarrese,Carlton M. Baugh,Joss Bland-Hawthorn,T. Bridges,R. D. Cannon,Shaun Cole,Matthew Colless,Chris A. Collins,Warrick J. Couch,Gavin Dalton,R. De Propris,Simon P. Driver,George Efstathiou,Richard S. Ellis,Carlos S. Frenk,Karl Glazebrook,Carole Jackson,Ofer Lahav,Ian Lewis,Stuart Lumsden,Steve Maddox,Darren Madgwick,Peder Norberg,John A. Peacock,Bruce A. Peterson,William J. Sutherland,Keith Taylor +29 more
TL;DR: In this article, the bias parameter of the 2dFGRS data set was used to measure the strength of clustering of the galaxies relative to the mass in the universe, and it was shown that optically selected galaxies do indeed trace the underlying mass distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The dependence of galaxy clustering on luminosity and spectral type
Peder Norberg,Carlton M. Baugh,Ed Hawkins,Steve Maddox,Darren Madgwick,O. Lahav,Shaun Cole,Carlos S. Frenk,Ivan K. Baldry,Joss Bland-Hawthorn,T. Bridges,R. D. Cannon,Matthew Colless,Chris A.

Sutherland,Keith Taylor,dFGRS Team +27 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the dependence of galaxy clustering on luminosity and spectral type using the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) using the principal component analysis of Madgwick et al.
