Extreme Scale Survey Simulation with Python Workflows
A. S. Villarreal, Yadu Babuji, Tom Uram +3
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will soon carry out an unprecedented wide, fast, and deep survey of the sky in multiple optical bands. The data…
The LSST DESC DC2 Simulated Sky Survey
LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration, Bela Abolfathi, David Alonso +77
We describe the simulated sky survey underlying the second data challenge (DC2) carried out in preparation for analysis of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and…
How to Optimally Constrain Galaxy Assembly Bias: Supplement Projected Correlation Functions with Count-in-cells Statistics
Kuan Wang, Yao-Yuan Mao, Andrew R. Zentner +6
Most models for the connection between galaxies and their haloes ignore the possibility that galaxy properties may be correlated with halo properties other than mass, a phenomenon…
Updated Results on the Galaxy-Halo Connection from Satellite Kinematics in SDSS
Johannes U. Lange, Frank C. van den Bosch, Andrew R. Zentner +2
We present new results on the relationship between central galaxies and dark matter haloes inferred from observations of satellite kinematics in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS)…
Maturing Satellite Kinematics into a Competitive Probe of the Galaxy-Halo Connection
Johannes U. Lange, Frank C. van den Bosch, Andrew R. Zentner +2
The kinematics of satellite galaxies moving in a dark matter halo are a direct probe of the underlying gravitational potential. Thus, the phase-space distributions of satellites re…
The Galaxy Clustering Crisis in Abundance Matching
Duncan Campbell, Frank C. van den Bosch, Nikhil Padmanabhan +5
Galaxy clustering on small scales is significantly under-predicted by sub-halo abundance matching (SHAM) models that populate (sub-)haloes with galaxies based on peak halo mass, $M…
The Immitigable Nature of Assembly Bias: The Impact of Halo Definition on Assembly Bias
Antonia S. Villarreal, Andrew R. Zentner, Yao-Yuan Mao +6
Dark matter halo clustering depends not only on halo mass, but also on other properties such as concentration and shape. This phenomenon is known broadly as assembly bias. We explo…
Constraints on Assembly Bias from Galaxy Clustering
Andrew R. Zentner, Andrew Hearin, Frank C. van den Bosch +2
We constrain the newly-introduced decorated Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) model using SDSS DR7 measurements of projected galaxy clustering or r-band luminosity threshold sampl…
New light curves and ephemeris for the close eclipsing binary V963 PER
Andrew P. Odell, Patrick Wils, Clarissa Dirks +4
We have obtained CCD photometry in 2010-11 of V963 Per (=GSC3355 0394), which is a recently identified close binary star with unequal eclipse depths. The seven new eclipse timings…
