Defining the scale of transition to homogeneity as the scale at which $\mathcal{D}_2(r)$ reaches 3 within $1\%$, i. e. $\mathcal{D}_2(r)>2. 97$ for $r>\mathcal{R}_H$, we find $\mathcal{R}_H = (63. 3\pm0. 7) \ h^{-1}\ \mathrm{Mpc}$, in agreement at the percentage level with the predictions of the $\Lambda$CDM model $\mathcal{R}_H=62. 0\ h^{-1}\ \mathrm{Mpc}$.

Splitting the sample into multiple overlapping redshift slices to extract the redshift information of galaxy clustering, we obtain a measurement of $D_A(z)/r_d$ and $H(z)r_d$ at nine effective redshifts with the full covariance matrix calibrated using MultiDark-Patchy mock catalogues.

We use microwave temperature maps from two seasons of data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACTPol) at 146 GHz, together with the Constant Mass CMASS galaxy sample from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey to measure the kinematic Sunyaev-Ze\v{l}dovich (kSZ) effect over the redshift range z = 0. 4 - 0. 7.
