Zusammenfassung |
The recent availability of
complete three
dimensional samples of galaxies and clusters permits a
direct
study of their spatial properties. We present a brief
review
of galaxy correlations based on the methods modern
statistical
Physics. These methods which able to identify
self-similar
and non-analytical prop ties, allow us to test the
usual
homogeneity assumption of luminous matter distribution.
We conclude that both the three dimensional prop ties,
and the
angular log N - log S relation, point out the
fact that the
distribution of galaxies and clusters fractal with
D ≈ 2 up to the deepest scale probed luminous matter (≈≥
1000h-1 Mpc).
This result has important implications for the
theoretical
framework that should be adopted. |
