Abstract

This IAU Joint Discussion proposes to address the subject of redshift surveys in the 21st century. This paper, however, deals with two major new redshift surveys that those involved sincerely hope will be completed in the 20th century. Nonetheless, these surveys are relevant to the topic of the meeting, as they clearly foreshadow the scope and style of redshift surveys, if not in the coming millennium, at least in the coming decade. The surveys are being carried out with the new Two Degree Field (2dF) facility on the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT), a 400-fibre multi-object spectrograph with the capability, as described in Section 2, to increase the size of redshift surveys by an order of magnitude over current best efforts. The main scientific goals, survey strategy and some preliminary results from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey are outlined in Section 3, while Section 4 similarly describes the 2dF QSO Redshift Survey. Further information can be found on the WWW at http://www.aao.gov.au/2df/ for the 2dF facility, at http://msowww.anu.edu.au/~colless/2dF/ for thegalaxy survey and at http://www.aao.gov.au/local/www/rs/qso_surv.html for the QSO survey.
用2DF观测红移
这次国际天文学联合会联合讨论建议解决21世纪红移调查的问题。然而,本文涉及的是两个重要的新红移测量,这些研究人员真诚地希望能在20世纪完成。尽管如此,这些调查与会议的主题相关,因为它们清楚地预示了红移调查的范围和风格,如果不是在下一个千年,至少在未来十年。这些调查是在英澳望远镜(AAT)上的新的二度场(2dF)设施上进行的,AAT是一个400纤维的多目标光谱仪,如第2节所述,它的能力比目前最好的努力增加了一个数量级的红移调查。第3节概述了2dF星系红移调查的主要科学目标、调查策略和一些初步结果,而第4节类似地描述了2dF QSO红移调查。更多的信息可以在WWW上找到:http://www.aao.gov.au/2df/关于2dF设施,http://msowww.anu.edu.au/~colless/2dF/关于星系调查,http://www.aao.gov.au/local/www/rs/qso_surv.html关于QSO调查。
