Abstract
For convenience, we begin with a collection of the most useful formulae for relating luminosity functions in various wavebands to observations. For derivations see e.g. Weinberg (1972), Gunn (1978). These relations depend on the current values of the parameters H & Ω (we dispense with the usual zero subscript); where important, dependence of results on these values will be indicated, defining h ≡ H/100 kms−1 Mpc−1. Often, the effect of varying h & Ω is an unimportant scaling and for simplicity numerical values will then be quoted assuming h = 1/2, Ω = 1.
