Domain-specific

• Halo Mass Function
  • Press and Schechter established the foundational analytical connection between the statistics of the initial density field and the abundance of collapsed objects

    This sourceEstablishes the original analytic link between Gaussian density-field statistics and halo abundance via a spherical-collapse threshold.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
