Fig. 6: Angular correlation functions.

From: Distinct distributions of elliptical and disk galaxies across the Local Supercluster as a ΛCDM prediction

Fig. 6

The graph shows the angular correlation functions ω(θ) of disks (blue) and ellipticals (red) in the SIBELIUS simulation (light solid lines) and the 2MRS data (dark dashed lines) in four redshift ranges. The top left chart corresponds to Fig. 1, while the top right chart and all bottom charts correspond to Fig. 5. Shaded areas provide an estimate of the statistical uncertainty. In each redshift range within and beyond the Local Supercluster and in both 2MRS and SIBELIUS, elliptical galaxies show significantly stronger clustering than disks.
