Description

In an earlier paper we inferred, from the distribution of galaxy redshifts in three small fields ~30{deg} apart, the existence of a 10^6^Mpc^3^ void in the distribution of galaxies in the constellation of Bootes. In this paper, we describe a redshift survey undertaken to test that hypothesis. Galaxies were selected by eye from 283 small fields distributed between the three original fields, and redshifts were measured for 239 of them. We confirm the existence of a large, roughly spherical void, of radius 62Mpc, centered at {alpha}=14h50, {delta}=+46{deg}, v=15500km/s. The low density of this region is of high statistical significance and does not appear easily reconcilable with any of the popular models for the growth of structure in the universe. This void does contain some unusual galaxies characterized by strong, high-excitation emission spectra, but not in sufficient numbers to compensate for the absence of more usual objects.
