A sample of galaxy pairs identified from the LAMOST spectral survey and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Shiyin Shen, M. Argudo-Fernández, Li Chen +23
A small fraction() of SDSS main sample galaxies(MGs) have not been targeted with spectroscopy due to the the fiber collision effect. These galaxies have been compiled into t…
Strong bimodality in the host halo mass of central galaxies from galaxy-galaxy lensing
Rachel Mandelbaum, Wenting Wang, Ying Zu +3
We use galaxy-galaxy lensing to study the dark matter halos surrounding a sample of Locally Brightest Galaxies (LBGs) selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We measure mean ha…
A weak gravitational lensing recalibration of the scaling relations linking the gas properties of dark halos to their mass
Wenting Wang, Simon White, Rachel Mandelbaum +3
We use weak gravitational lensing to measure mean mass profiles around Locally Brightest Galaxies (LBGs). These are selected from the SDSS/DR7 spectroscopic and photometric catalog…
The orbital PDF: the dynamical state of Milky Way sized haloes and the intrinsic uncertainty in the determination of their masses
Jiaxin Han, Wenting Wang, Shaun Cole +1
Using realistic cosmological simulations of Milky Way sized haloes, we study their dynamical state and the accuracy of inferring their mass profiles with steady-state models of dyn…
The orbital PDF: general inference of the gravitational potential from steady-state tracers
Jiaxin Han, Wenting Wang, Shaun Cole +1
We develop two general methods to infer the gravitational potential of a system using steady-state tracers, i.e., tracers with a time-independent phase-space distribution. Combined…
Planes of satellite galaxies: when exceptions are the rule
Marius Cautun, Sownak Bose, Carlos S. Frenk +5
The detection of planar structures within the satellite systems of both the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31) has been reported as being in stark contradiction to the predictions…
