The value of $s 8$ is adopted from the cluster abundance. (Figure taken from [46].)	Go To Figure In Article

	Figure 23: Redshift slices of SDSS galaxy data around the equatorial plane. The redshift limits and the thickness of the planes are $z < 0.05$ and $10h- 1 Mpc$ (upper panel), $z < 0.1$ and $15 h-1 Mpc$ (middle panel), and $z < 0.2$ and $-1 20 h Mpc$ (lower panel). The size of points has been adjusted. Note that the data for the Southern part are sparser than those for the Northern part, especially for thick slices. (Figure taken from [32].)

	Figure 24: The power spectrum of the 2dFGRS. The points with error bars show the measured 2dFGRS power spectrum measurements in redshift space, convolved with the window function. Also plotted are linear CDM models with neutrino contribution of $_O_n = 0$ , $_O_n = 0.01$ , and $_O_n = 0.05$ (bottom to top lines). The other parameters are fixed to the concordance model. The good fit of the linear theory power spectrum at $k > 0.15 h Mpc - 1$ is due to a conspiracy between the non-linear gravitational growth and the finger-of-God smearing [72].

	Figure 31: MFs as a function of $nf$ for $RG = 5 h-1 Mpc$ for SDSS data. Averaged MFs of the mock samples are plotted for LCDM (solid lines) and SCDM (long dashed lines).
