TY  - JOUR
AB  - <jats:p>            The motions of galaxies can be used to constrain the cosmological density parameter Ω and the clustering amplitude of matter on large scales. The mean relative velocity of galaxy pairs, estimated from the Mark III survey, indicates that Ω = 0.35            <jats:sub>−0.25</jats:sub>            <jats:sup>+0.35</jats:sup>            . If the clustering of galaxies is unbiased on large scales, Ω = 0.35 ± 0.15, so that an unbiased Einstein–de Sitter model (Ω = 1) is inconsistent with the data.          </jats:p>
