Peculiar Hubble Flows in Our Local Universe
A formalism that simultaneously searches for the monopolar and dipolar peculiar velocities is presented. The formalism is applied to (1) the Mark III catalogue, (2) Lauer and Postman’s Abell cluster catalogue, and (3) Riess et al.’s Type Ia supernova sample. The emphasis is drawn to the monopolar peculiar velocities, i.e., peculiar Hubble flows, within these samples. The samples show inconsiste...
متن کاملLarge scale perturbations in the open universe.
When considering perturbations in an open (Ω0 < 1) universe, cosmologists retain only sub-curvature modes (defined as eigenfunctions of the Laplacian whose eigenvalue is less than −1 in units of the curvature scale, in contrast with the super-curvature modes whose eigenvalue is between −1 and 0). Mathematicians have known for almost half a century that all modes must be included to generate the...
متن کاملLarge-Scale Structure in the Universe
How is the universe organized on large scales? How did this structure evolve from the unknown initial conditions to the present time? The answers to these questions will shed light on the cosmology we live in, the amount, composition and distribution of matter in the universe, the initial spectrum of density fluctuations, and the formation and evolution of galaxies, clusters of galaxies, and la...
متن کاملLarge Scale Structure of the Universe Introduction
The changes of main paradigms on the structure and evolution of the Universe are reviewed. Two puzzles of the modern cosmology, the mean density of matter and the regularity of the Universe on large scales, as well as the possibility to solve these puzzles by the introduction of more complicated form of inflation, are discussed. 1 Changes of paradigms in cosmology Until mid-70's it was generall...
متن کاملLarge Scale Structure of the Universe
How is the universe organized on large scales? How did this structure evolve from the unknown initial conditions of a rather smooth early universe to the present time? The answers to these questions will shed light on the cosmology we live in, the amount, composition and distribution of matter in the universe, the initial spectrum of density fluctuations that gave rise to this structure, and th...
