Scientific paper

If the disk of the spiral galaxies have a moderated value of the mean optical depth, the observed luminosity function should be corrected for the combined effect of the inclination and the opacity of the galactic disk. We obtain the corrected luminosity function for current models of opaque matter distribution. We use the the Limber's equation and the two point angular correlation function to study the influence of the opacity on the determination of the spatial correlation lenght. We assume that the opaque matter has been formed at low redshift zd.
