Galaxy Redshifts: Improved Techniques

preprint1993arXivOpen access

Abstract

This paper analyses the effects of random noise in determining errors and confidence levels for galaxy redshifts obtained by cross-correlation techniques. The main finding is that confidence levels have previously been overestimated, and errors inaccurately calculated in certain applications. New formulæ are presented.
