The Intergalactic Newtonian Gravitational Field and the Shell Theorem
The release of the 2MASS Redshift Survey (2MRS), with it’s 44599 galaxiesallows the deduction of the galaxy’s masses in nearly complete sample. Acubic box with side of 37 Mpc containing 2429 galaxies is extracted and theNewtonian gravitational eld is evaluated both at the center of the box aswell in 101 x 101 x 101 grid points of the box. The obtained results are thendiscussed at the light of the shell theorem which states that at the internalof a sphere the gravitational eld is zero.keywordsmethods: statistical; cosmology: observations; (cosmology): large-scale struc-ture of the Universe
