How to Grow a Healthy Merger Tree
Jun Zhang, Onsi Fakhouri, Chung-Pei Ma
We investigate seven Monte Carlo algorithms -- four old and three new -- for constructing merger histories of dark matter halos using the extended Press-Schechter (EPS) formalism b…

Conditional Mass Functions and Merger Rates of Dark Matter Halos in the Ellipsoidal Collapse Model
Jun Zhang, Chung-Pei Ma, Onsi Fakhouri
Analytic models based on spherical and ellipsoidal gravitational collapse have been used to derive the mass functions of dark matter halos and their progenitors (the conditional ma…
