The Intermediate‐Scale Clustering of Luminous Red Galaxies
Open accessAbstract
We report the intermediate-scale (0.3-40 h -1 Mpc) clustering of 35,000 luminous early-type galaxies at redshifts 0.16-0.44 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We present the redshift space two-point correlation function ξ( s ), the projected correlation function w p ( r p ), and the deprojected real space correlation function ξ( r ), for approximately volume-limited samples. As expected, the galaxies are highly clustered, with the correlation length varying from 9.8 ± 0.2 to 11.2 ± 0.2 h -1 Mpc, dependent on the specific luminosity range. For the -23.2 < M g < -21.2 sample, the inferred bias relative to that of L * galaxies is 1.84 ± 0.11 for 1 h -1 Mpc < r p ≲ 10 h -1 Mpc, with yet stronger clustering on smaller scales. We detect luminosity-dependent bias within the sample but see no evidence for redshift evolution between z = 0.2 and z = 0.4. We find a clear indication for deviations from a power-law in the real space correlation function, with a dip at ~2 h -1 Mpc scales and an upturn on smaller scales. The precision measurements of these clustering trends offer new avenues for the study of the formation and evolution of these massive galaxies.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
