I describe briefly the Cosmic Microwave Background (hereafter CMB) physics which explains why high accuracy observations of its spatial structure are a unique observational tool both for the...
GALICS I: A hybrid N-body semi-analytic model of hierarchical galaxy formation (2003)
Hatton, Steve, Devriendt, Julien E. G., Ninin, Stephane, Bouchet, Francois R., Guiderdoni, Bruno, Vibert, Didier
This is the first paper of a series that describes the methods and basic results of the GalICS model (for Galaxies In Cosmological Simulations). GalICS is a hybrid model for hierarchical galaxy...
Prunet, Simon, Sethi, Shiv K., Bouchet, Francois R.
We present a method of subtracting the foreground contamination for the measurement of CMB polarization. We calculate the resultant errors on CMB polarization and temperature-polarization cross...
The Structure and Dynamical Evolution of Dark Matter Halos (1996)
Tormen, Giuseppe, Bouchet, Francois R., White, Simon D. M.
(Shortened) We use N-body simulations to investigate the structure and dynamical evolution of dark matter halos in galaxy clusters. Our sample consists of nine massive halos from an EdS universe with...
Previrialization: Perturbative and N-Body Results (1995)
Lokas, Ewa L., Juszkiewicz, Roman, Bouchet, Francois R., Hivon, Eric
We present a series of N-body experiments which confirm the reality of the previrialization effect. We also use weakly nonlinear perturbative approach to study the phenomenon. These two approaches...
LYMAN-ALPHA FOREST CORRELATIONS USING NEIGHBOR COUNTS (1995)
Meiksin, Avery, Bouchet, Francois R.
We present a novel technique for calculating the two-point autocorrelation function of the Lyman-alpha forest based on the relation between the two-point correlation function and the Neighbor...
Moments of the Counts Distribution in the 1.2 Jy IRAS Redshift Survey (1993)
We derive the volume-averaged 2, 3, 4, and 5-point correlation functions from the moments of the Count probability distribution function of a redshift survey of IRAS galaxies, and find them all to be...
The Implications of the COBE-DMR Results for Cosmic Strings (1992)
Bennett, David P., Stebbins, Albert, Bouchet, Francois R.
We compare the anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background radiation measured by the COBE experiment to the predictions of cosmic strings. We use an analytic model for the $\Delta T/T$ power...
