Features of the Spatial Distribution of Galaxy Clusters
A statistical analysis of anisotropic quasiperiodic features of the spatial distribution of galaxy clusters obtained on the basis of spectroscopic and photometric redshifts in the interval $0.1 \leq z \leq 0.47$ has been carried out. Based on data from the SDSS~III catalog, we show that the preferential direction previously detected in the northern hemisphere (a narrow cone of directions: $\alpha_0=170^\circ \pm 5^\circ, \ \delta_0= 29^\circ \pm 5^\circ$), along which the one-dimensional distribution of projections of the Cartesian coordinates of clusters contains a significant ($\gtrsim (4 - 5) \sigma$) quasi-periodic component, can also be found using photometric redshifts, achieving a certain accuracy ($\Delta z \lesssim 0.013$). Based on data from the photometric DES$\times$unWISE catalog, we have analyzed the spatial distribution of clusters in the southern hemisphere, where a cone of close directions was also detected ($\alpha_0=346^\circ \pm 5^\circ,\ \delta_0= - 29^\circ \pm 5^\circ $), which are approximately an extention of the directions revealed in the northern hemisphere. The power spectra of one-dimensional distributions along these directions contain significant ($\gtrsim (4 - 5) \sigma$) features in the same interval of wave numbers $0.04 \lesssim k \lesssim 0.06~h$~Mpc$^{-1}$.
