CONSTRAINING THE LUMINOUS RED GALAXY HALO OCCUPATION DISTRIBUTION USING COUNTS-IN-CYLINDERS

CONSTRAINING THE LUMINOUS RED GALAXY HALO OCCUPATION DISTRIBUTION USING COUNTS-IN-CYLINDERS

The low number density of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) suggests that LRGs occupying the same dark matter halo can be separated from pairs occupying distinct dark matter halos with high fidelity. We present a new technique, Counts-in-Cylinders (CiC), to constrain the parameters of the …
