Galaxy and Mass Assembly: luminosity and stellar mass functions in GAMA groups

J. A. Vázquez-Mata, J. Loveday, S. D. Riggs +14

How do galaxy properties (such as stellar mass, luminosity, star formation rate, and morphology) and their evolution depend on the mass of their host dark matter halo? Using the Ga…
