Scientific paper

The authors discuss the problem of galaxy correlations by considering the various methods by which this information can be obtained. They focus in particular on the volume limited three dimensional examples and discuss a new way to increase the scale of their statistical validity. From previous results for all available catalogues they conclude that galaxy correlations show fractal properties with dimension D ≍ 2 up to the present observational limits (200 h-1 - 800 h-1 Mpc, depending on the catalogue) without any tendency towards homogenization. The authors also discuss the compatibility of this result with the galaxy counts as a function of magnitude and the angular catalogues.
