The Large-Scale Structure of the Universe [PDF]
Physics Bulletin, 1981 An instant landmark on its publication, this book remains the essential introduction to this vital area of research. Written by one of the world's most esteemed theoretical cosmologists, it provides an invaluable historical introduction to the subject, and an enduring overview of key methods, statistical measures, and techniques for dealing with cosmic

Large-Scale Structure of the Universe
The Evolving Universe and the Origin of Life, 2019By naked eye, we can easily detect only three galaxies: the Andromeda galaxy in the northern sky, and the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds in the southern sky. Pictures taken via large telescopes contain millions of galaxies, and it is estimated that there are hundreds of billions of faint galaxies all over the sky.

Large Scale Structure of the Universe
2001Now it is generally recognized that on large scales the universe is isotropic and homogeneous while on smaller scales it is extremely clumpy. Indeed, detected small variations of CMB anisotropy by COBE - ΔT/T ≈ 10−5- restrict the possible inhomogeneities on larger scales, while existence of so prominent galaxy concentrations as, for example, groups and

The Large-Scale Structure of the Universe [PDF]
Scientific American, 1983 A survey is given of theories for the origin of large-scale structure in the universe: clusters and superclusters of galaxies, and vast black regions practically devoid of galaxies. Special attention is paid to the theory of a neutrino-dominated universe—a cosmology in which electron neutrinos with a rest mass of a few tens of electron volts would ...

Large-scale structure in the Universe
Physica Scripta, 1991I present the latest results from three new surveys of the galaxy distribution which have been specially designed to detect large scale structure. The surveys provide strong evidence that our Universe contains more structure on scales 10h-1 Mpc than would have been expected in simple versions of the Cold Dark Matter model and pose a challenge for ...

The large scale structure of the universe
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1990Recent developments concerning the large scale structure of the universe are discussed. All seem to indicate inhomogeneities on much larger scales than previously thought. Specific observations from above the atmosphere can aid in understanding several outstanding questions, like the spatial distribution of various absorbers, the global geometry of the

ON THE UNIVERSAL CHARACTER OF THE LARGE SCALE STRUCTURE OF THE UNIVERSE
International Journal of Modern Physics D, 1992We review different theories on the formation of the large scale structure of the Universe. Special emphasis is put on the theory of inertial instability. We show that, for a large class of initial spectra, the resulting two point correlation functions are similar.

The large‐scale structure of the Universe
European Review, 1997The study of the distribution of matter in the Universe is at the forefront of modern astronomy, and stimulates numerous research programmes both in theory, observation and experiment. The distribution of galaxies has a cell-like structure resulting from the alternation of sheets and voids with the topological properties of a ‘sponge’.

Multiscaling Properties of Large-Scale Structure in the Universe [PDF]
Science, 1995 The large-scale distribution of galaxies and galaxy clusters in the universe can be described in the mathematical language of multifractal sets. A particularly significant aspect of this description is that it furnishes a natural explanation for the observed differences in clustering properties of objects of different density in terms of multiscaling ...

The large-scale structure of the universe
Contemporary Physics, 1996Abstract The search for a theory that explains the origin of galaxies and large-scale structure in the Universe is at an exciting stage. Observational advances, including measurements of the anisotropy in the cosmic microwave background and systematic surveys of galaxy redshifts, are confronting theoretical calculations of the distribution of matter ...
