Abstract The extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) Data Release 14 sample includes 80,118 luminous red galaxies (LRGs). By combining these with the high-redshift tail of BOSS galaxy sample, we form a LRGs at an effective redshift z = 0.72, covering volume 0.9 Gpc 3 . We account for spurious fluctuations caused by targeting and failures, which were validated on set mock catalogs.
