Connecting the Physical Properties of Galaxies with the Overdensity and Tidal Shear of the Large-Scale Environment
Jounghun Lee, Cheng Li
We have examined the correlations between the large-scale environment of galaxies and their physical properties, using a sample of 28,354 nearby galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digit…
Probing the Intrinsic Shape and Alignment of Dark Matter Haloes using SDSS Galaxy Groups
Yougang Wang, Xiaohu Yang, H. J. Mo +4
We study the three-dimensional and projected shapes of galaxy groups in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4, and examine the alignment between the orientation of the centra…
Modelling and interpreting the dependence of clustering on the spectral energy distributions of galaxies
Lan Wang, Cheng Li, Guinevere Kauffmann +1
We extend our previous physically-based halo occupation distribution models to include the dependence of clustering on the spectral energy distributions of galaxies. The high resol…
Luminosity dependence of the spatial and velocity distributions of galaxies: Semi-analytic models versus the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Cheng Li, Y. P. Jing, Guinevere Kauffmann +3
By comparing semi-analytic galaxy catalogues with data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), we show that current galaxy formation models reproduce qualitatively the dependence…
The Alignment between Satellites and Central Galaxies: Theory vs. Observations
X. Kang, Frank C. van den Bosch, Xiaohu Yang +4
Recent studies have shown that the distribution of satellite galaxies is preferentially aligned with the major axis of their central galaxy. The strength of this alignment has been…
