Projected Three-Point Correlation Functions and Galaxy Bias
The three-point correlation function (3PCF) can now be measured in large galaxy redshift surveys, but in three dimensions its interpretation is complicated by the presence of redshift-space distortions. I investigate the projected 3PCF, where these distortions are eliminated by integrating over the redshift dimension, as is commonly done for the two-point correlation function. The calculation o...
متن کاملFast n-point correlation functions and three-point lensing application
We present a new algorithm to rapidly compute the two-point (2PCF), three-point (3PCF) and n-point (n-PCF) correlation functions in roughly O(N) time for N particles, instead of O(Nn) as required by brute force approaches. This technique exploits node-to-node correlations of a recursive bisectional binary tree. A balanced tree construction minimizes the depth of the tree and the worst case erro...
متن کاملInterpolating and Integrating Three-point Correlation Functions on a Lattice
Various methods of estimating eeective properties of composite materials require geometrical or topological information contained in the statistical three-point correlation functions. If these three-point correlation functions are measured using digital image processing techniques, the values are computed for a discrete set of admissible triangular arguments corresponding to triangles whose ver...
متن کاملMeasuring the Galaxy-Galaxy-Mass Three-point Correlation Function with Weak Gravitational Lensing
We discuss the galaxy-galaxy-mass three-point correlation function and show how to measure it with weak gravitational lensing. The method entails choosing a large of pairs of foreground lens galaxies and constructing a mean shear map with respect to their axis, by averaging the ellipticities of background source galaxies. An average mass map can be reconstructed from this shear map and this wil...
متن کاملThe 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Higher order galaxy correlation functions
We measure moments of the galaxy count probability distribution function in the two-degree field galaxy redshift survey (2dFGRS). The survey is divided into volume limited subsamples in order to examine the dependence of the higher order clustering on galaxy luminosity. We demonstrate the hierarchical scaling of the averaged p-point galaxy correlation functions, ξ̄p, up to p = 6. The hierarchica...
