VizieR Online Data Catalog: VIPERS. Searching for cosmic voids (Micheletti+, 2014)
Abstract
File voidtable.dat lists the catalogue of maximal spheres detected in VIPERS samples, divided in groups corresponding to individual voids. The spheres have been associated with larger under-densities using the percolation method, thus we associate each sphere with a void index indicating larger empty regions.
The identification number (ID) of each maximal sphere is composed of: the VIPERS field to which the maximal sphere belongs (W1 or W4); a void index indicating to which void the sphere belongs (VVVV); a sphere index SSSS indicating the size rank of the sphere relative to other maximal spheres within the same void. The complete ID has the form Wx.VVVV.SSSS. For each maximal sphere of our catalogue we provide: its ID; its comoving radius in Mpc (Ωm=0.27, ΩΛ=0.73 and H0=70km/s/Mpc); the right ascension, declination, and redshift of the sphere's centre; a p-value giving the detection significance with respect to a Poisson distribution. Voids are sorted in ascending redshift order, with the redshift associated with each void being that of its largest sphere. Spheres inside each void are sorted in decreasing radius order.
