Assembly bias in the clustering of dark matter haloes
Liang Gao,Simon D. M. White +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a very large simulation of structure growth in a Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) universe to study assembly bias, the fact that the large-scale clustering of haloes of given mass varies significantly with their assembly history.

TL;DR: In this article, the angular spectrum of the CMB was measured at 144 GHz from Cerro Toco in the Chilean altiplano, where the angular anisotropy of the spectrum was found to have the same properties as the spectrum at 30 and 40 GHz.

Linear redshift distortions: A Review
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the measurements of β from linear redshift distortions published up to mid 1997 and reported the average and standard deviation of the reported values is β optical= 052 ± 026 for optically selected galaxies, and β IRAS = 077 + 022 for IRAS selected galaxies.

Improved Forecasts for the Baryon Acoustic Oscillations and Cosmological Distance Scale
TL;DR: In this article, the cosmological distance errors achievable using the baryonic acoustic oscillations as a standard ruler are presented. But they do not consider the Lagrangian displacement distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI
The physics of microwave background anisotropies
TL;DR: The residual radiation from the Big Bang is observable as the cosmic microwave background as discussed by the authors, a near-uniform sea of photons with an average temperature of 2.7 K. Analysis of the physical mechanisms by which these anisotropies formed shows how they may be used to constrain fundamental cosmological parameters and provide insight into the origin of large scale structure in the Universe.
