The Impact of Baryonic Effects on the Dynamical Masses Inferred Using Satellite Kinematics
Josephine F. W. Baggen, Frank C. van den Bosch, Kaustav Mitra
Satellite kinematics offers a powerful method to infer dynamical halo masses and has been demonstrated to yield tight constraints on the galaxy-halo connection. However, previous s…
Constraining the Low Mass End of the Stellar Halo Mass Relation with Surveys of Satellite Galaxies
J. Sebastian Monzon, Frank C. van den Bosch, Kaustav Mitra
The abundance of satellite galaxies is set by the hierarchical assembly of their host halo. We leverage this to investigate the low mass end ()…
Denser Environments Cultivate Larger Galaxies: A Comprehensive Study beyond the Local Universe with 3 Million Hyper Suprime-Cam Galaxies
Aritra Ghosh, C. Megan Urry, Meredith C. Powell +5
The relationship between galaxy size and environment has remained enigmatic, with over a decade of conflicting results. We present one of the first comprehensive studies of the var…
A candidate runaway supermassive black hole identified by shocks and star formation in its wake
Pieter van Dokkum, Imad Pasha, Maria Luisa Buzzo +13
The interaction of a runaway supermassive black hole (SMBH) with the circumgalactic medium (CGM) can lead to the formation of a wake of shocked gas and young stars behind it. Here…
The Halo Occupation Distribution of Obscured Quasars: Revisiting the Unification Model
Kaustav Mitra, Suchetana Chatterjee, Michael A. DiPompeo +2
We model the projected angular two-point correlation function (2PCF) of obscured and unobscured quasars selected using the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), at a median r…
Halo Occupation Distribution of Infrared Selected Quasars
Kaustav Mitra
We perform a Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) modeling of the projected two-point correlation function (2PCF) of quasars that are observed in the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explo…
