Halo asymmetry in the modelling of galaxy clustering

Anna Durkalec, Agnieszka Pollo, Ummi Abbas

Conventional studies of galaxy clustering within the framework of halo models typically assume that the density profile of all dark matter haloes can be approximated by the Navarro…

Differential Astrometric Framework for the Jupiter Relativistic Experiment with Gaia

Ummi Abbas, Beatrice Bucciarelli, Mario G. Lattanzi

We employ differential astrometric methods to establish a small field reference frame stable at the micro-arcsecond (as) level on short timescales using high-cadence simulated o…

Measures of Galaxy Environment - III. Difficulties in identifying proto-clusters at z ~ 2

Genevieve M. Shattow, Darren J. Croton, Ramin A. Skibba +3

Galaxy environment is frequently discussed, but inconsistently defined. It is especially difficult to measure at high redshift where only photometric redshifts are available. With…

Measures of galaxy environment -- II. Rank-ordered mark correlations

Ramin A. Skibba, Ravi K. Sheth, Darren J. Croton +4

We analyze environmental correlations using mark clustering statistics with the mock galaxy catalogue constructed by Muldrew et al. (Paper I). We find that mark correlation functio…

Strong clustering of underdense regions and the environmental dependence of clustering from Gaussian initial conditions

Ummi Abbas, Ravi K. Sheth

We discuss two slightly counter-intuitive findings about the environmental dependence of clustering in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. First, we find that the relation between cluste…

The environmental dependence of galaxy clustering in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Ummi Abbas, Ravi K. Sheth

A generic prediction of hierarchical clustering models is that the mass function of dark haloes in dense regions in the Universe should be top-heavy. We provide a novel test of thi…
