Clustering of HI galaxies in the HI parkes all sky survey and arecibo legacy fast alfa survey
(Oxford University Press, 2011)
We investigate the clustering of H I-selected galaxies in the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA
Survey (ALFALFA) and compare results with those obtained for the H I Parkes All Sky
Survey (HIPASS). Measurements of the angular ...
Disentangling non-gaussianity, bias, and general relativistic effects in the galaxy distribution
(American Physical Society, 2012)
Local non-Gaussianity, parametrized by
f
NL
, introduces a scale-dependent bias that is strongest at large scales, precisely where general relativistic (GR) effects also become significant. With future data, it should ...
On the time delay between ultra-relativistic particles
(Elsevier, 2016)
The time delay between the receptions of ultra-relativistic particles emitted simultaneously is a useful observable for both fundamental physics and cosmology. The expression of the delay when the particles travel through ...
Reconstruction of dark energy and expansion dynamics using Gaussian processes
(IOP Publishing, 2012)
An important issue in cosmology is reconstructing the effective dark energy equation
of state directly from observations. With few physically motivated models, future dark
energy studies cannot only be based on constraining ...
Nonlinear galactic dynamos and the magnetic pitch angle
(American Astronomical Society, 2015)
Pitch angles p of the large-scale magnetic fields B of spiral galaxies have previously been inferred from
observations to be systematically larger in magnitude than predicted by standard mean-field dynamo theory. ...
Statistical gamma-ray decay studies at iThemba LABS
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
Abstract. A program to study the γ -ray decay from the region of high-level density has been established
at iThemba LABS, where a high-resolution gamma-ray detector array is used in conjunction with silicon
particle-telescopes. ...
Relativistic mean field formulation of clustering in heavy nuclei
(IOP, 2010)
Very little is known about clustering in heavy nuclei and in particular the
interaction between the correlated cluster nucleons and remaining core nucleons. Currently
the phenomenological Saxon-Woods plus cubic Saxon-Woods ...
Intrinsic scatter of caustic masses and hydrostatic bias: An observational study
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
All estimates of cluster mass have some intrinsic scatter and perhaps some bias with true mass even in the absence of measurement
errors for example caused by cluster triaxiality and large scale structure. Knowledge of ...
