    Appleby, Stephen; Kochappan, Joby P; Pravabati, C; Park, Changbom (American Astronomical Society, 2023-01-10)
    The Minkowski tensors (MTs) can be used to probe anisotropic signals in a field, and are well suited for measuring the redshift-space distortion (RSD) signal in large-scale structure catalogs. We consider how the linear ...
