DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stz901
Abstract: This article explores three usual estimators, noted as $v_{12}$ of the pairwise velocity, $\psi_1$ and $\psi_2$ of the observed two-point galaxy peculiar velocity correlation functions. These estimators are tested on mock samples of {\it Cosmicflows-3}… read more here.
