Mapping the Real Space Distributions of Galaxies in SDSS DR7: II. Measuring the growth rate, clustering amplitude of matter and biases of galaxies at redshift

Feng Shi, Xiaohu Yang, Huiyuan Wang +9

We extend the real-space mapping method developed in Shi et at. (2016) so that it can be applied to flux-limited galaxy samples. We use an ensemble of mock catalogs to demonstrate…

ELUCID V. Lighting dark matter halos with galaxies

Xiaohu Yang, Youcai Zhang, Huiyuan Wang +16

In a recent study, using the distribution of galaxies in the north galactic pole of SDSS DR7 region enclosed in a 500$\mpch$ box, we carried out our ELUCID simulation (Wang et al.…

The Impact of Baryons on the Large-Scale Structure of the Universe

Weiguang Cui, Youcai Zhang

Numerical simulations play an important role in current astronomy researches. Previous dark-matter-only simulations have represented the large-scale structure of the Universe. Howe…

ELUCID IV: Galaxy Quenching and its Relation to Halo Mass, Environment, and Assembly Bias

Huiyuan Wang, H. J. Mo, Sihan Chen +17

We examine the quenched fraction of central and satellite galaxies as a function of galaxy stellar mass, halo mass, and the matter density of their large scale environment. Matter…

Size distribution of galaxies in SDSS DR7: weak dependence on halo environment

Youcai Zhang, Xiaohu Yang

Using a sample of galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (SDSS DR7) and a catalog of bulge-disk decompositions, we study how the size distribution of ga…

ELUCID -- Exploring the Local Universe with the reConstructed Initial Density field. II: Reconstruction diagnostics, applied to numerical halo catalogs

Dylan Tweed, Xiaohu Yang, Huiyuan Wang +5

The ELUCID project aims to build a series of realistic cosmological simulations that reproduce the spatial and mass distribution of the galaxies as observed in the Sloan Digital Sk…
