Correlation function for two different redshift slices, ﹩0.16< z< 0.36﹩ (black line) and ﹩0.36< z< 0.47﹩ (red line). The latter is somewhat noisier, but the two are quite similar and both show evidence of the acoustic peak. The differences are within the expected statistical variations, as tested by χ². Note that the vertical axis mixes logarithmic and linear scalings.
