Scientific paper

The statistical properties of power spectra obtained from pencil-beam redshift surveys are examined, with emphasis on the study by Broadhurst et al. (1990). Attention is given to tests of the null hypothesis that the long-wavelength 1D power spectrum found in such surveys is generated by the known small-scale clustering of galaxies. In particular it is shown that both the amplitude and the relative isolation of the peak at lambda = 128/h Mpc in their power spectrum are well consistent with the null hypothesis in which the universe is uniform apart from the known clustering on scales of 1-10 Mpc.
