Cosmology with Stacked Schmidt Plates

  • S. J. McNally (a1), J. A. Peacock (a2) and M. R. S. Hawkins (a2)
Abstract

Digital stacking of Schmidt Plates greatly increases the depth of the data allowing detection of galaxies at ∼ 1. We can probe the angular correlations of galaxy and cluster positions over scales of ∼ 500h −1 Mpc. Radial distance information can be obtained by identifying radio galaxies in the field and using their “standard candle” properties. A search for cosmic string effects, beginning with the stacked dataset, has now been extended to ∼ 100 equatorial J-plates.
