The galaxy–dark matter halo connection: which galaxy properties are correlated with the host halo mass?
We demonstrate how the properties of a galaxy depend on the mass of its host dark matter subhalo, using two independent models of galaxy formation. For the cases of stellar mass and black holemass, themedian property value displays amonotonic dependence on subhalomass. The slope of the relation changes for subhalomasses for which heating by active galactic nuclei becomes important. The median p...
متن کاملLinking halo mass to galaxy luminosity
In this paper we present a new, essentially empirical, model for the relation between the mass of a dark matter halo/subhalo and the luminosity of a galaxy hosted in it. To estimate this, we replace the assumption of linearity between light and mass fluctuations with the assumption of monotonicity between galaxy light and halo or subhalo mass. We are enabled to proceed with this less restrictiv...
متن کاملThe influence of halo assembly on galaxies and galaxy groups
We study the variations of group galaxy properties according to their assembly history in groups identified in the SDSS-DR6 (hereafter SDSS) catalogue. Using mock SDSS group catalogues, we find that the isolation and concentration of a galaxy group are good observational discriminators of group assembly. However, analysing the mean spectral type of SDSS groups as a function of concentration and...
متن کاملThe Dependence of Galaxy Type on Host Halo Mass
We examine the relation between galaxy properties and environment in the SDSS DR2, quantifying environment in terms of the mass of the host halo, which is obtained with a new iterative group finder. We find that galaxy type fractions scale strongly and smoothly with halo mass, but, at fixed mass, not with luminosity. We compare these findings with the semi-analytical galaxy formation model of C...
متن کاملGalaxy Groups in the Sdss Dr4: Ii. Halo Occupation Statistics
We investigate various galaxy occupation statistics of dark matter halos using a large galaxy group catalogue constructed from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4 (SDSS DR4) with an adaptive halo-based group finder. The conditional luminosity function (CLF), which describes the luminosity distribution of galaxies in halos of a given mass, is measured separately for all, red and blue gal...
