The galaxy luminosity function and the redshift-distance controversy (A Review) [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1986 The mean relation between distance and redshift for galaxies is reviewed as an observational question. The luminosity function for galaxies is an important ingredient and is given explicitly. We discuss various observational selection effects that are important for comparison of the linear and quadratic distance-redshift laws. Several lines of evidence

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 ABSTRACT We present the ‘Cosmological Jellyfish’ project – a citizen-science classification program to identify jellyfish (JF) galaxies within the IllustrisTNG cosmological simulations. JF are satellite galaxies that exhibit long trailing gas features – ‘tails’ – extending from their stellar body.

EXTRACTING ANGULAR DIAMETER DISTANCE AND EXPANSION RATE OF THE UNIVERSE FROM TWO-DIMENSIONAL GALAXY POWER SPECTRUM AT HIGH REDSHIFTS: BARYON ACOUSTIC OSCILLATION FITTING VERSUS FULL MODELING [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2009 We present a method for extracting the angular diameter distances, $D_A$, and the expansion rates, $H$, of the universe from the {\it two-dimensional} Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) in the galaxy power spectrum. Our method builds upon the existing algorithm called the "fit-and-extract" (FITEX) method, which allows one to extract only $D_A^2/H$ from

Directly observed relations in complete galaxy samples and the predictions of redshift-distance power laws [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1986 Directly observed relations in complete galaxy samples (apparent magnitude or diameter vs. redshift) are compared with the predictions of redshift-distance power laws. The predictions are obtained by an objective, nonparametric, statistically uniform, and fully reproducible procedure.

Measuring the distance-redshift relation with the cross-correlation of gravitational wave standard sirens and galaxies [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2016 Gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries are known to be an excellent absolute distance indicator, yet it is unclear whether electromagnetic counterparts of these events are securely identified for measuring their redshifts, especially in the case of black hole-black hole mergers such as the one recently observed with the Advanced LIGO. We
