Connecting massive galaxies to dark matter haloes in BOSS – I. Is galaxy colour a stochastic process in high-mass haloes?

Journal Article Saito, Shun ; Leauthaud, Alexie ; Hearin, Andrew P. ; ... - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society

In this work, we use subhalo abundance matching (SHAM) to model the stellar mass function (SMF) and clustering of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) 'CMASS' sample at z ~ 0.5. We introduce a novel method which accounts for the stellar mass incompleteness of CMASS as a function of redshift, and produce CMASS mock catalogues which include selection effects, reproduce the overall SMF, the projected two-point correlation function w_p, the CMASS dn/dz, and are made publicly available. We study the effects of assembly bias above collapse mass in the context of 'age matching' and show that these effects are markedlymore »« less

Compact galaxies and the size–mass galaxy distribution from a colour-selected sample at 0.04 < z < 0.15 supplemented by ugrizYJHK photometric redshifts

Journal Article Baldry, Ivan K. ; Sullivan, Tricia ; Rani, Raffaele ; ... - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society

ABSTRACT The size–mass galaxy distribution is a key diagnostic for galaxy evolution. Massive compact galaxies are potential surviving relics of a high-redshift phase of star formation. Some of these could be nearly unresolved in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging and thus not included in galaxy samples. To overcome this, a sample was selected from the combination of SDSS and UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) photometry to r < 17.8. This was done using colour–colour selection, and then by obtaining accurate photometric redshifts (photo-z) using scaled flux matching (SFM). Compared to spectroscopic redshifts (spec-z), SFM obtained a 1σ scatter of 0.0125 with only 0.3 per cent outliers (|Δln (1 + z)| > 0.06). A sample of 163 186 galaxies was obtained with 0.04 < z < 0.15 overmore »« less

The distribution of neutral hydrogen in the colour–magnitude plane of galaxies

Journal Article Dutta, Saili ; Khandai, Nishikanta - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters

ABSTRACT We present the conditional H i (neutral hydrogen) mass function (HIMF) conditioned on observed optical properties, Mr (r-band absolute magnitude), and Cur (u − r colour), for a sample of 7709 galaxies from Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (40 per cent data release – α.40) which overlaps with a common volume in SDSS DR7. Based on the conditional HIMF, we find that the luminous red, luminous blue, and faint blue populations dominate the total HIMF at the high-mass end, knee, and the low-mass end, respectively. We use the conditional HIMF to derive the underlying distribution function of ΩH i (H i density parameter), p(ΩH i), in the colour–magnitude plane of galaxies. The distribution, p(ΩH i), peaks in the blue cloud atmore »« less

PRESENT-DAY DESCENDANTS OF z = 3 Ly{alpha}-EMITTING GALAXIES IN THE MILLENNIUM-II HALO MERGER TREES

Journal Article Walker-Soler, Jean P ; Gawiser, Eric ; Bond, Nicholas A ; ... - Astrophysical Journal

Using the Millennium-II Simulation dark matter sub-halo merger histories, we created mock catalogs of Ly{alpha}-emitting (LAE) galaxies at z = 3.1 to study the properties of their descendants. Several models were created by selecting the sub-halos to match the number density and typical dark matter mass determined from observations of these galaxies. We used mass-based and age-based selection criteria to study their effects on descendant populations at z {approx_equal} 2, 1, and 0. For the models that best represent LAEs at z = 3.1, the z = 0 descendants have a median dark matter halo mass of 10{sup 12.7} M{submore »« less

IMPROVED MODELING OF THE MASS DISTRIBUTION OF DISK GALAXIES BY THE EINASTO HALO MODEL

Journal Article Chemin, Laurent ; De Blok, W. J. G. ; Mamon, Gary A., E-mail: chemin@obs.u-bordeaux1.fr, E-mail: edeblok@ast.uct.ac.za, E-mail: gam@iap.fr - Astronomical Journal (New York, N.Y. Online)

Analysis of the rotation curves (RCs) of spiral galaxies provides an efficient diagnostic for studying the properties of dark matter halos and their relations with baryonic material. Since the cored pseudo-isothermal (Iso) model usually provides a better description of observed RCs than does the cuspy Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) model, there have been concerns that the {Lambda}CDM primordial density fluctuation spectrum may not be the correct one. We have modeled the RCs of galaxies from The H I Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS) with the Einasto halo model, which has emerged as the best-fitting model of the halos arising in dissipationless cosmological N-bodymore »« less
