Abstract

A variety of theoretical models are confronted with the correlation function results from the APM Galaxy Survey. We can make rather good estimates of the post-recombination power spectrum out to k ~ 1/(100 h -1Mpc); its slope is n ~ -1 on cluster to supercluster scales, and rolls over to n ≳ 0 at larger scales, but cannot reach n ~ 1 until k ≲ 1/(100 h -1Mpc); thus the microwave background appears to offer the most direct test.
