Cosmic strings and the formation of galaxies and clusters of galaxies

Abstract

As many speakers have discussed at this meeting, recent observations of the universe on very large scales have revealed a great deal of structure. Large voids, filaments and sheets with dimensions of 50-100 h-1Mpc stand out in the observed distribution of galaxies. Rich clusters of galaxies are significantly clumped on scales of at least 100 h-1Mpc.
