Redshift-space distortions [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2011
Comparing measurements of redshift-space distortions (RSDs) with geometrical observations of the expansion of the Universe offers tremendous potential for testing general relativity on very large scales. The basic linear theory of RSDs in the distant-observer limit has been known for 25 years and the effect has been conclusively observed ...

EAZY: A Fast, Public Photometric Redshift Code [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We describe a new program for determining photometric redshifts, dubbed EAZY. The program is optimized for cases where spectroscopic redshifts are not available, or are only available for a biased subset of the galaxies.

The age of our universe [PDF]

open access: yesHemijska Industrija, 2008
If we assume that the observed Redshift of starlight is due to the Doppler effect we end up with models of the universe which contradict the basic laws of science. If we assume that the red shift may be due to a tiring of light, an assumption still to be

HIGH-REDSHIFT GALAXIES IN THE HUBBLE DEEP FIELD : COLOUR SELECTION AND STAR FORMATION HISTORY TO Z 4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The Lyman decrement associated with the cumulative effect of H I in QSO absorption systems along the line of sight provides a distinctive feature for identifying galaxies at z ≳ 2.5.

Revisiting a Negative Cosmological Constant from Low-Redshift Data [PDF]

open access: yesSymmetry, 2019
Persisting tensions between high-redshift and low-redshift cosmological observations suggest the dark energy sector of the Universe might be more complex than the positive cosmological constant of the Λ CDM model.

An Optical View of Extragalactic γ-Ray Emitters

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
The Fermi Gamma-ray Observatory discovered about a thousand extragalactic sources emitting energy from 100 MeV to 100 GeV. The majority of these sources belong to the class of blazars characterized by a quasi-featureless optical spectrum (BL Lac Objects).

Radial Redshift Space Distortions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The radial component of the peculiar velocities of galaxies cause displacements in their positions in redshift space. We study the effect of the peculiar velocities on the linear redshift space two point correlation function.

A Future Percent-level Measurement of the Hubble Expansion at Redshift 0.8 with Advanced LIGO [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Simultaneous measurements of distance and redshift can be used to constrain the expansion history of the universe and associated cosmological parameters.

Detecting Helium Reionization with Fast Radio Bursts

open access: yes, 2020
Fast radio bursts (FRB) probe the electron density of the universe along the path of propagation, making high redshift FRB sensitive to the helium reionization epoch.
