摘要
We produce several public void catalogs using a volume-limited subsample of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (SDSS DR7). Using new implementations of three different void-finding algorithms, VoidFinder and two ZOBOV-based algorithms (VIDE and REVOLVER), we identify 1159, 534, and 518 cosmic voids with radii >10 Mpc/h, respectively, out to a redshift of z = 0.114. We compute effective radii and centers for all voids and find none with an effective radius >54 Mpc/h. The median void effective radius is 15-17 Mpc/h for all three algorithms. We extract and discuss several properties of the void populations, including radial density profiles, the volume fraction of the catalog contained within voids, and the fraction of galaxies contained within voids. Using 64 mock galaxy catalogs created from the Horizon Run 4 N-body simulation, we compare simulated and observed void properties and find good agreement between the SDSS~DR7 and mock catalog results.
