This grant is to suppport research to extend the method of power                spectrum analysis of discrete objects from two to three                         dimensions, and then to apply the resulting procedure to the                    analysis of quasar positions.                                                                                                                                   The new procedure should avoid the problem associated with                      equidistant sampling of a distribution (only variations on scales               exceeding the Nyquist scale can be detected), and make full use of              all the data available.  It will also provide an alternative to                 the two-point correlation function as a way of looking at the                   data.  Since the power spectrum of a distribution is the Fourier                transform of the autocorrelation function,  the three dimensional               power spectrum should be equivalent to the evaluation of the                    quasar autocorrelation function.  The principal data base for the               project will be the new Burbidge and Hewitt (1987) catalog of                   quasi-stellar objects, from which subsets will be selected.                                                                                                     The application of the new procedure should shed some light on the              apparently vexing question of the scale of quasar clustering in                 three dimensions.
