Clustering in the Caltech Faint Galaxy Redshift Survey

Abstract

The Caltech Faint Galaxy Redshift Survey has collected 2000 spectra taken with multi-slit masks using the Low Resolution Imaging Spectrograph at the Keck Observatory (Oke et al 1995) in two widely separated fields on the sky, each 1 x 1 deg2. Most of these objects are faint field galaxies; about 10% are Galactic stars and about 1% are broad-lined AGNs. I summarize the small scale clustering of this sample as well as the evidence in support of large scale structure.
