Scientific paper

Under reasonable assumptions, a model taking into account the effect of variable obscuration on the observed clustering of galaxies shows that clump absorption could both change the amplitude and slope of the intrinsic galaxy autocorrelation function corresponding to that observed, and produce the break in the observed galaxy autocorrelation function which is generally believed to be of dynamical origin. The cross-correlation of the Zwicky and Shane-Wirtanen catalogs provides an independent argument in support of the present model.
