OUTLINE
 What is the 2MASS Redshift Survey?
 What is the acceleration on our Local Group
of galaxies?
 Why do I think I am right?
Main Assumptions
 CMB dipole is due to the motion of the Sun.
 Linear theory of density perturbations is
acceptable.
 The 2MASS has constant mass-to-light ratio
and linear bias.

Number Weighting Technique
If we have a perfect 3-dimensional
galaxy catalogue with same mass, with no selection
effects, no z-distortions and with linear biasing then

Gal 2 with d = 100 km/sec v pec= -20 km/sec
Thus calculated distance=80 km/sec
Thus calculated dipole = 64 % more than the
Real dipole
Gal 1 with d=100 km/sec v pec = 20 km/sec
Thus calculated distance=120 km/sec
Thus calculated dipole= 44% less than
the real dipole
Net effect: A spurious contribution to the LG dipole from
All the galaxies.

To summarise…
 The flux weighted galaxy dipoles are better.
 Most of the LG dipole is caused by the tug-of-war
between the GA and Per-Pis. The dipole
converges by ~ 60 Mpc/h.
 If dipole converged β2mrs = 0.4±0.1
 Small discrepancy between LG and CMB dipoles
are due to ZoA, 2nd and 3rd assumptions
mentioned in the earlier slide and structure
beyond. But no big deal!
