The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: baryon acoustic oscillations in the Data Release 9 spectroscopic galaxy sample
This paper (with an alphabetical author list) presented, and interpreted, early Baryon Acoustic Oscillation measurements from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS). Percival co-led the working group that jointly wrote this paper, organising meetings and telecons dedicated to this work. He calculated the galaxy and random catalogues on which the analysis was based, and made the power spectrum calculations and BAO fits. He served as one of the paper’s editors, writing most of sections 1, 3, 6 and Appendix B3, and contributing to all others; he also made all corrections required by the referee and wrote the referee reply.
