Two-point correlation function of high-redshift objects on a light-cone: Effect of the linear redshift-space distortion
Abstract
A theoretical formulation for the two-point correlation function on a light-cone is developed in the redshift space. On the basis of the previous work by Yamamoto & Suto (1999), in which a theoretical formula for the two-point correlation function on a light-cone has been developed in the real space, we extend it to the formula in the redshift space by taking the peculiar velocity of the sources into account. A simple expression for the two-point correlation function is derived. We briefly discuss QSO correlation functions on a light-cone adopting a simple model of the sources.
