Constraining the mass of the Local Group
Edoardo Carlesi, Yehuda Hoffman, Jenny G. Sorce +1
The mass of the Local Group (LG) is a crucial parameter for galaxy formation theories. However, its observational determination is challenging - its mass budget is dominated by dar…
Galaxy Three-Point Correlation Functions and Halo/Subhalo Models
Hong Guo, Zheng Zheng, Peter S. Behroozi +9
We present the measurements of the luminosity-dependent redshift-space three-point correlation functions (3PCFs) for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR7 Main galaxy sample. We…
How did the Virgo cluster form?
Jenny G. Sorce, Stefan Gottloeber, Yehuda Hoffman +1
While the Virgo cluster is the nearest galaxy cluster and therefore the best observed one, little is known about its formation history. In this paper, a set of cosmological simulat…
The tangential velocity of M31: CLUES from constrained simulations
Edoardo Carlesi, Yehuda Hoffman, Jenny G. Sorce +4
Determining the precise value of the tangential component of the velocity of M31 is a non trivial astrophysical issue, that relies on complicated modeling. This has recently lead t…
