| Abstract: | The manuscript attempts to explore the periodicity in the distribution of galaxies in the recently
reported Saraswati supercluster and the Stripe 82 region containing it as an example. The report
of 120 Mpc periodicity in the Abell galaxy clusters by power spectrum analysis is the motivation
behind the study. The power spectral analysis across the central part of the Stripe 82 region
shows a periodic variation of 3.09° or 71 Mpc in fractal dimension whereas an average angular
periodicity of 3.45° or 94 Mpc is observed across the Stripe 82 region. This refers to the
periodicity of complexity or cluster density of galaxy distribution. The texture of the distribution
pattern understood through lacunarity analysis indicates a near symmetric distribution. Fractal
dimensions like box-counting dimension, information dimension and correlation dimension are
also found through multifractal analysis. While the information dimension tells about the
distribution density of galactic points, the correlation dimension details the distribution of
galaxies in the neighbourhood |
