Galaxy redshift surveys have achieved significant progress over the last couple of decades. Those surveys tell us in the most straightforward way what our local Universe looks like. While the galaxy distribution traces the bright side of the Universe, detailed quantitative analyses of the data have even revealed the dark side of the Universe dominated by non-baryonic dark matter as well as more mysterious dark energy (or Einstein's cosmological constant). We describe several methodologies of using galaxy redshift surveys as cosmological probes, and then summarize the recent results from the existing surveys. Finally we present our views on the future of redshift surveys in the era of precision cosmology.

通过星系红移巡天测量我们的宇宙。


星系红移调查在过去几十年中取得了重大进展。这些调查以最直接的方式告诉我们我们当地的宇宙是什么样子。虽然星系分布追踪了宇宙的光明面，但对数据的详细定量分析甚至揭示了由非重子暗物质以及更神秘的暗能量（或爱因斯坦的宇宙学常数）主导的宇宙的黑暗面。我们描述了使用星系红移调查作为宇宙学探测器的几种方法，然后总结了现有调查的最新结果。最后，我们提出了对精密宇宙学时代红移巡天的未来的看法。
