The Concentration Dependence of the Galaxy-Halo Connection: Modeling Assembly Bias with Abundance Matching
Benjamin V. Lehmann, Yao-Yuan Mao, Matthew R. Becker +2
Empirical methods for connecting galaxies to their dark matter halos have become essential for interpreting measurements of the spatial statistics of galaxies. In this work, we pre…
Sussing Merger Trees: A proposed Merger Tree data format
Peter A. Thomas, Julian Onions, Dylan Tweed +13
We propose a common terminology for use in describing both temporal merger trees and spatial structure trees for dark-matter halos. We specify a unified data format in HDF5 and pro…
Major Mergers Going Notts: Challenges for Modern Halo Finders
Peter Behroozi, Alexander Knebe, Frazer R. Pearce +7
Merging haloes with similar masses (i.e., major mergers) pose significant challenges for halo finders. We compare five halo finding algorithms' (AHF, HBT, Rockstar, SubFind, and VE…
The Dependence of Subhalo Abundance on Halo Concentration
Yao-Yuan Mao, Marc Williamson, Risa H. Wechsler
Hierarchical structure formation implies that the number of subhalos within a dark matter halo depends not only on halo mass, but also on the formation history of the halo. This de…
