The authors calculated the two-point galaxy-galaxy correlation function ξ within the cosmic string model and compared with the observed result of Davis and Peebles and found that the model can satisfactorily explain the observed ξ-curve. One interesting result is that, using the cosmic string scenario, one can naturally obtain a feature that other cosmological models have difficulty in accounting for, namely, the "bend" of the 1+ξ curve at rc ≈ 3 h-1Mpc, when the exponent in the power law changes from -2 to -0.85.
