Toward accurate measurement of property-dependent galaxy clustering I. Comparison of the Vmax method and the "shuffled" method

Lei Yang, Yipeng Jing, Zhigang Li +1

Galaxy clustering provides insightful clues to our understanding of galaxy formation and evolution, as well as the universe. The redshift assignment for the random sample is one of…

Using the Modified Nearest Neighbor Method to Correct Fiber-collision Effects on Galaxy Clustering

Lei Yang, Yipeng Jing, Xiaohu Yang +1

Fiber collision is a persistent problem faced by modern spectroscopic galaxy surveys. In this work, we propose a new method to correct for this undesired effect, focusing on the cl…

Mapping the Real Space Distributions of Galaxies in SDSS DR7: II. Measuring the growth rate, clustering amplitude of matter and biases of galaxies at redshift

Feng Shi, Xiaohu Yang, Huiyuan Wang +9

We extend the real-space mapping method developed in Shi et at. (2016) so that it can be applied to flux-limited galaxy samples. We use an ensemble of mock catalogs to demonstrate…

ELUCID V. Lighting dark matter halos with galaxies

Xiaohu Yang, Youcai Zhang, Huiyuan Wang +16

In a recent study, using the distribution of galaxies in the north galactic pole of SDSS DR7 region enclosed in a 500$\mpch$ box, we carried out our ELUCID simulation (Wang et al.…

Revealing the cosmic web dependent halo bias

Xiaohu Yang, Youcai Zhang, Tianhuan Lu +7

Halo bias is the one of the key ingredients of the halo models. It was shown at a given redshift to be only dependent, to the first order, on the halo mass. In this study, four typ…

Mapping the real space distributions of galaxies in SDSS DR7: I. Two Point Correlation Functions

Feng Shi, Xiaohu Yang, Huiyuan Wang +8

Using a method to correct redshift space distortion (RSD) for individual galaxies, we mapped the real space distributions of galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Re…

An empirical model to form and evolve galaxies in dark matter halos

Shijie Li, Youcai Zhang, Xiaohu Yang +8

Based on the star formation histories (SFH) of galaxies in halos of different masses, we develop an empirical model to grow galaxies in dark mattet halos. This model has very few i…
