MAHGIC: A Model Adapter for the Halo-Galaxy Inter-Connection

Yangyao Chen, H. J. Mo, Cheng Li +5

We develop a model to establish the interconnection between galaxies and their dark matter halos. We use Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to reduce the dimensionality of both the…

Finding proto-clusters to trace galaxy evolution: I. The finder and its performance

Kai Wang, H. J. Mo, Cheng Li +1

We develop a method to identify proto-clusters based on dark matter halos represented by galaxy groups selected from surveys of galaxies at high redshift. We test the performance o…

How to empirically model star formation in dark matter halos: I. Inferences about central galaxies from numerical simulations

Yangyao Chen, H. J. Mo, Cheng Li +1

We use TNG and EAGLE hydrodynamic simulations to investigate the central galaxy - dark matter halo relations that are needed for a halo-based empirical model of star formation in g…

Identifying galaxy groups at high redshift from incomplete spectroscopic data: I. The group finder and application to zCOSMOS

Kai Wang, H. J. Mo, Cheng Li +2

Identifying galaxy groups from redshift surveys of galaxies plays an important role in connecting galaxies with the underlying dark matter distribution. Current and future high-…

Alignments of dark matter halos with large-scale tidal fields: mass and redshift dependence

Sijie Chen, Huiyuan Wang, H. J. Mo +1

Large scale tidal field estimated directly from the distribution of dark matter halos is used to investigate how halo shapes and spin vectors are aligned with the cosmic web. The m…

Galaxy Ecosystems: gas contents, inflows and outflows

Zhankui Lu, H. J. Mo, Yu Lu

We use a set of observational data for galaxy cold gas mass fraction and gas phase metallicity to constrain the content, inflow and outflow of gas in central galaxies hosted by hal…
