What can galaxy clustering really tell us about the galaxy-halo connections?
Xiaoju Xu, Xiaohu Yang, Zhongxu Zhai +6
Subhalo abundance matching (SHAM) is a commonly used framework for modeling the galaxy-halo connection. Yet, its standard implementation has difficulty reproducing the observed gal…

Establishing HI mass v.s. stellar mass and halo mass scaling relations using an abundance matching method
Yi Lu, Xiaohu Yang, Chengze Liu +5
We combined data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey (ALFALFA) to establish the HI mass vs. stellar mass and halo mass scaling relation…
