Lower growth rate from recent redshift space distortion measurements than expected from Planck.
We perform a metastudy of recently published redshift space distortion (RSD) measurements of the cosmological growth rate, f(z)σ8(z). We analyze the latest results from the 6dFGS, BOSS, LRG, WiggleZ, and VIPERS galaxy redshift surveys, and compare the measurements to expectations from Planck. In thi...

| description | We perform a metastudy of recently published redshift space distortion (RSD) measurements of the cosmological growth rate, f(z)σ8(z). We analyze the latest results from the 6dFGS, BOSS, LRG, WiggleZ, and VIPERS galaxy redshift surveys, and compare the measurements to expectations from Planck. In this Letter we point out that the RSD measurements are consistently lower than the values expected from Planck, and the relative scatter between the RSD measurements is lower than expected. A full resolution of this issue may require a more robust treatment of nonlinear effects in RSD models, although the trend for a low σ8 agrees with recent constraints on σ8 and Ω(m) from Sunyaev-Zeldovich cluster counts identified in Planck. |
