12 Feb 1997 | Subject: | astro-ph | Abstract: | Reconstruction of the linear power spectrum from observational data provides a way to compare cosmological models to a large amount of data, as Peacock & Dodds (1994, 1996) have shown. By applying the appropriate corrections to the observational power spectrum it is possible to recover the underlying linear power spectrum for any cosmological model. Using extensive N-body simulations we demonstrate that the method is applicable to a wide range of cosmological models. However, we find that the recovery of the linear power spectrum from observations following PD94 is misleading because the corrections are model- dependent. When we apply the proper corrections for a given model to the observational power spectrum, we find that no model in our test group recovers the linear power spectrum well for the bias suggested by PD94 between Abell, Radio, Optical, and IRAS catalogs 4.5:1.9:1.3:1, with b_IRAS=1. When we allow b_IRAS to vary we find that: (i)CHDM models give very good fits to observations if optically-selected galaxies are slightly biased b_Opt=1.1 (ii) Most LCDM models give worse but acceptable fits if blue galaxies are considerably antibiased: 0.6 | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9702099 | Other source: | [GID 495772] astro-ph/9702099 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
