Approximating the peculiar velocity distribution of dark matter halos with Tsallis statistics

Jun Pan, Ming Li

Dark matter halos, which host galaxies and galaxy clusters, have peculiar velocities far from thermal equilibrium. Characterizing the nonlinear and non-Gaussian features of this ve…

Halo Mass of ULIRGs at Cosmic Noon

Jun Pan, Ming Li, Cheng Cheng +1

We present a clustering analysis of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) at , uniformly selected by flux and IRAC colors in the COSMOS and BOO…

Numerical convergence of pre-initial conditions on dark matter halo properties

Tianchi Zhang, Shihong Liao, Ming Li +1

Generating pre-initial conditions (or particle loads) is the very first step to set up a cosmological N-body simulation. In this work, we revisit the numerical convergence of pre-i…

About One-point Statistics of the Ratio of Two Fourier-transformed Cosmic Fields and an Application

Ming Li, Jun Pan, Pengjie Zhang +7

The Fourier transformation is an effective and efficient operation of Gaussianization at the one-point level. Using a set of N-body simulation data, we verified that the one-point…

The optimal gravitational softening length for cosmological N-body simulations

Tianchi Zhang, Shihong Liao, Ming Li +1

Gravitational softening length is one of the key parameters to properly set up a cosmological -body simulation. In this paper, we perform a large suit of high-resolution -bod…

The abundance of satellite galaxies in the inner region of CDM Milky Way sized haloes

Ming Li, Liang Gao, Jie Wang

The concordance CDM cosmology predicts tens of satellite galaxies distributed in the inner region ($<40\ \lkpc$) of the Milky Way (MW), yet at most were discovered at prese…

Resolution of the apparent discrepancy between the number of massive subhaloes in Abell 2744 and ΛCDM

Tian-Xiang Mao, Jie Wang, Carlos S. Frenk +5

Schwinn et al. (2017) have recently compared the abundance and distribution of massive substructures identified in a gravitational lensing analysis of Abell 2744 by Jauzac et al. (…

Matched filter optimization of kSZ measurements with a reconstructed cosmological flow field

Ming Li, Raul E. Angulo, Simon D. M. White +1

We develop and test a new statistical method to measure the kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect. A sample of independently detected clusters is combined with the cosmic flow…

The Mass Profile and Accretion History of Cold Dark Matter Halos

Aaron D. Ludlow, Julio F. Navarro, Michael Boylan-Kolchin +6

We use the Millennium Simulation series to study the relation between the accretion history (MAH) and mass profile of cold dark matter halos. We find that the mean density within t…

Bulk flow of halos in ΛCDM simulation

Ming Li, Jun Pan, Liang Gao +10

Analysis of the Pangu N-body simulation validates that the bulk flow of halos follows a Maxwellian distribution which variance is consistent with the prediction of the linear theor…

The Dynamical State and Mass-Concentration Relation of Galaxy Clusters

Aaron D. Ludlow, Julio F. Navarro, Ming Li +3

We use the Millennium Simulation series to study how the dynamical state of dark matter halos affects the relation between mass and concentration. We find that a large fraction of…
