/ Abstract
We explore the cosmological implications of the angle-averaged correlation function, ξ (s), and the clustering wedges, ξ ⊥(s) and ξ � (s), of the LOWZ and CMASS galaxy samples from Data Releases 10 and 11 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III) Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey. Our results show no significant evidence for a deviation from the standard � cold dark matter model. The combination of the information from our clustering measurements with recent data from the cosmic microwave background is sufficient to constrain the
