Filament and shape statistics: a quantitative comparison of cold + hot

Filament and shape statistics: a quantitative comparison of cold + hot

A new class of geometric statistics for analysing galaxy catalogues is presented. Filament statistics quantify filamentarity and planarity in large-scale structure in a manner consistent with catalogue visualizations. These statistics are based on sequences of spatial links which follow local high-density structures. From these link sequences we compute the discrete …
