The 1.6 bump as a diagnostic of TP-AGB contributions and recent quenching. I. Insights from stellar population models

Pengjun Lu, Song Huang, Shiying Lu +3

The 1.6 bump arises from a minimum in the opacity of the negative hydrogen ion in cool stellar atmospheres. Although it is recognized as a common feature…

The Connection between Halo Assembly History and the Stellar Distribution I: The Central Stellar Mass - Richness Plane

Shuo Xu, Song Huang, Alexie Leauthaud +4

Recent observations suggest intrinsic links between the stellar components of massive halos and their assembly histories. Using massive halos with $\log[M_{\rm halo}/M_\odot] \geq…

The First Systematic Survey of Stellar Halos in High-Inclination Galaxies Reveals Unusually Quiescent Merger Histories of Nearby Galaxies

Bojun Tao, Hong-Xin Zhang, Wenting Wang +8

Stellar halos are the only major stellar component of disk galaxies that lack systematic observational characterization, yet they encode critical information about galaxy merger hi…

Reaching for the Edge II: Stellar Halos out to Large Radii as a Tracer of Dark Matter Halo Mass

Katya Leidig, Benedikt Diemer, Song Huang +3

The diffuse outskirts of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) encode valuable information about the assembly history and mass of their host dark matter halos. However, the low surface…

Testing the Stellar Feedback-driven Breathing Mode in Low-mass Galaxies with Gas Kinematics

Yifei Luo, Joseph Wick, Alexie Leauthaud +7

Hydrodynamic simulations have proposed that stellar feedback and bursty star-formation can produce dark matter cores in low-mass galaxies. A key prediction is that feedback-driven…
