Biased galaxy formation refers to the process whereby galaxies form in regions of higher density in the universe, influenced by gravitational effects. This phenomenon occurs because matter is not evenly distributed; rather, it tends to clump together, leading to the formation of structures like galaxies in areas with more mass concentration. This bias impacts the large-scale structure of the universe and helps to explain the distribution and evolution of galaxies over cosmic time.
congrats on reading the definition of biased galaxy formation. now let's actually learn it.
