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’.

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 ...

The large-scale structures of the Universe
Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 2000Abstract The present status of our understanding of the large-scale structures of the Universes is reviewed. The different methods that have been employed to probe the large-scale structures are presented, together with a discussion of their interests. Special emphasis is put on the implications of the observational results to the dark matter issue.

Large scale structure of the universe
Space Science Reviews, 1995The current situation with the cosmological model and fundamental constants is briefly reviewed. Here, we concentrate on evolutionary effects of large-scale structure formation, in particular, the relationship with the quasar distribution and dynamics is discussed.

Large Scale Structure of the Universe
2016The universe is full of stars. But how are all the stars distributed? Are they all huddled together, like freezing people around a fire? Or are they sprinkled evenly, as raisins in bread? The short answer is: both! The longer answer is surprisingly complex.

The Large Scale Structure of the Universe
1998Our current picture of how matter and radiation are distributed in the Universe on a large scale is derived from a wide variety of different types of observation. In this chapter, we concentrate upon the large-scale distribution of matter and radiation in the Universe and deal with galaxies and clusters of galaxies in Chaps. 3 and 4 respectively.

Large-Scale Structure of the Universe
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.

The Structure of the Universe on Large Scales [PDF]
, 1991 A possible explanation of the results from a quantitative analysis of the deep galactic surveys is suggested. The theoretical model taking into account the influence of the potential on the galaxy distribution is given. This model allows explaining the galaxy distribution on superlarge scales and the formation of large voids.

The Large Scale Structure of the Universe
1989We discuss the constraints that three different class of observations can set on various model for the formation of the large scale structure of the Universe. These observations involve measurements of galaxy peculiar velocity and gravity, and the cosmic microwave background angular distribution.

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.
