The AURORA Survey: Determining the Production Mechanism for OI Emission in Star-forming Galaxies at Cosmic Noon

Leonardo Clarke, Alice E. Shapley, Zhiwei Shao +11

We analyze deep JWST/NIRSpec observations of 58 star-forming galaxies at in the AURORA survey to investigate the origin of the permitted OI emission feature.…

Extending the Stellar-to-Halo Mass Relation to Dwarf Galaxies with DESI DR1

Z. Shao, Y. Zu, A. Salcedo +51

Constraining the dark matter halos of the smallest galaxies offers fundamental insights into the nature of dark matter and stellar feedback. Using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Ins…

Electron temperature relations and the direct N, O, Ne, S and Ar abundances of 49959 star-forming galaxies in DESI Data Release 2

D. Scholte, F. Cullen, J. Moustakas +42

We present the largest direct-method abundance catalogue of galaxies to date, containing measurements of 49959 star-forming galaxies at z < 0.96 from DESI Data Release 2. By direct…

Direct Measurement of Galaxy Assembly Bias using DESI DR1 Data

Zhiwei Shao, Ying Zu, Andrés N. Salcedo +54

We report the first direct measurement of galaxy assembly bias, a critical systematic in cosmology, from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Bright Galaxy Survey. We in…

Core to Cosmic Edge: SIMBA-C's New Take on Abundance Profiles in the Intragroup Medium at z = 0

Aviv Padawer-Blatt, Zhiwei Shao, Renier T. Hough +9

We employ the SIMBA-C cosmological simulation to study the impact of its upgraded chemical enrichment model (Chem5) on the distribution of metals in the intragroup medium (IGrM). W…

\texttt{Simba}-\texttt{C}: the evolution of the thermal and chemical properties in the intragroup medium

Renier T. Hough, Zhiwei Shao, Weiguang Cui +5

The newly updated \texttt{GIZMO} and \texttt{Simba} based simulation, \texttt{Simba-C}, with its new stellar feedback, chemical enrichment, and recalibrated AGN feedback, allows fo…

Cool and gusty, with a chance of rain: Dynamics of multiphase CGM around massive galaxies in the Romulus simulations

Vida Saeedzadeh, S. Lyla Jung, Douglas Rennehan +8

Using high-resolution {\sc Romulus} simulations, we explore the origin and evolution of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in the region 0.1 $\leq \mathrm{R}/\mathrm{R}_\mathrm{500} \…

Is the large-scale structure traced by the BOSS LOWZ galaxies consistent with ?

Zhiwei Shao, Ying Zu, Huanyuan Shan

Recently, several studies reported a significant discrepancy between the clustering and lensing of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) galaxies in the $\textit{Planc…

The Sphere of Influence of the Bright Central Galaxies in the Diffuse Light of SDSS Clusters

Xiaokai Chen, Ying Zu, Zhiwei Shao +1

The bright central galaxies (BCGs) dominate the inner portion of the diffuse cluster light, but it is still unclear where the intracluster light (ICL) takes over. To investigate th…

Strong Conformity and Assembly Bias: Towards a Physical Understanding of the Galaxy-Halo Connection in SDSS Clusters

Ying Zu, Yunjia Song, Zhiwei Shao +6

Understanding the physical connection between cluster galaxies and massive haloes is key to mitigating systematic uncertainties in next-generation cluster cosmology. We develop a n…

Does Concentration Drive the Scatter in the Stellar-to-Halo Mass Relation of Galaxy Clusters?

Ying Zu, Huanyuan Shan, Jun Zhang +10

Concentration is one of the key dark matter halo properties that could drive the scatter in the stellar-to-halo mass relation of massive clusters. We derive robust photometric stel…
