The Universe

The aim of the survey is to sample a relatively large, randomly chosen volume of the Universe in order to study the large-scale distribution of galaxies using the two-point correlation function, the peculiar velocities between galaxy pairs and to provide an estimate of the galaxian luminosity function that is unaffected by density inhomogeneities and Virgo infall.

Redshift Survey

We compare the luminosity function and the two-point spatial correlation function for the two slices of the CfA redshift survey extension to mB(0) ≤ 15.5 [8h ≤ RA. ≤ 17h and 26.5° ≤ DEC. ≤ 38.5°], with those for the early survey limited to mB(0) ≤ 14.5 [bII ≥ 40°, and DEC. ≥ 0°]. The derived properties of the two samples agree within the errors. The parameters of the luminosity function are M* = −19.1±0.1 and α = −1.2±0.1 for the 15.5 sample, and M* = −19.3±0.1 and α = −1.1 ± 0.1 for the 14.5 sample. We use an inhomogeneity-independent method to calculate the luminosity function. The slopes of the correlation functions for the two samples are −1.5 ± 0.35, shallower than the canonical slope of −1.8. The correlation lengths are 7.5 ± 5h−1 Mpc, larger than the correlation length of 5h−1 Mpc matched to the theoretical models. Because of the 25% uncertainty in the mean density of the 15.5 sample, the correlation function is indeterminate on scales larger than ∼ 20h−1 Mpc.
