Tg. Brainerd et Jv. Villumsen, THE REDSHIFT SPACE POWER SPECTRUM OF GALAXIES IN A COLD DARK-MATTER UNIVERSE, The Astrophysical journal, 415(2), 1993, pp. 120000067-120000070
The redshift space power spectrum of dark galaxy halos in a standard c
old dark matter (CDM) universe on scales 0.1 Mpc-1 less than or simila
r to kh-1 less than or similar to 2.5 Mpc-1 (2.5 Mpc less than or simi
lar to rh less than or similar to 63 Mpc) is determined. An N-body sim
ulation is evolved to a linear bias factor, b, of 1.0, and groups of p
articles that are overdense by a factor of approximately 250 are selec
ted as halos. On the scales that can be investigated in this simulatio
n, the redshift space power spectrum of all the halos has the same sha
pe as the power spectra of the IRAS galaxies and the CfA galaxies and
an amplitude that falls between that of the CfA and IRAS galaxies. The
power spectrum of halos with masses greater-than-or-equal-to 9.8 x 10
(12) M. agrees well with the power spectrum of IRAS galaxies. If it is
assumed that one luminous galaxy would reside in each of the halos, a
standard CDM universe that is normalized to the observed cosmic micro
wave background fluctuations does not predict excessive power in the g
alaxy distribution on small scales.
