Structural Properties of Central Galaxies in Groups and Clusters
Yicheng Guo, Daniel H. McIntosh, H. J. Mo +6
Using a representative sample of 911 central galaxies (CENs) from the SDSS DR4 group catalogue, we study how the structure of the most massive members in groups and clusters depend…
STAGES: the Space Telescope A901/2 Galaxy Evolution Survey
M. E. Gray, Christian Wolf, Marco Barden +26
We present an overview of the Space Telescope A901/2 Galaxy Evolution Survey (STAGES). STAGES is a multiwavelength project designed to probe physical drivers of galaxy evolution ac…
Environmental Effects on Satellite Galaxies: The Link Between Concentration, Size and Colour Profile
Simone M. Weinmann, Guinevere Kauffmann, Frank C. van den Bosch +5
Using the SDSS DR4 group catalogue of Yang et al. (2007), we investigate sizes, concentrations, colour gradients and surface brightness profiles of central and satellite galaxies.…
Ongoing Assembly of Massive Galaxies by Major Merging in Large Groups and Clusters from the SDSS
Daniel H. McIntosh, Yicheng Guo, Jen Hertzberg +4
We investigate the incidence of major mergers creating >10e11 Msun galaxies in present-day groups and clusters more massive than 2.5e13 Msun. We identify 38 pairs of massive galaxi…
The Alignment between the Distribution of Satellites and the Orientation of their Central Galaxy
Xiaohu Yang, Frank C. van den Bosch, H. J. Mo +5
We use galaxy groups selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey to examine the alignment between the orientation of the central galaxy (defined as the brightest group member) and t…
Spatial Locality of Galaxy Correlation Function in Phase Space: Samples from the 2MASS Extended Source Catalog
Yicheng Guo, Yao-Quan Chu, Li-Zhi Fang
We analyze the statistical properties and dynamical implications of galaxy distributions in phase space for samples selected from the 2MASS Extended Source Catalog. The galaxy dist…
