A random-walk model for dark matter halo spins
Andrew Benson, Christoph Behrens, Yu Lu
We extend the random-walk model of Vitvitska et al. for predicting the spins of dark matter halos from their merger histories. Using updated merger rates, orbital parameter distrib…
Comparison of Observed Galaxy Properties with Semianalytic Model Predictions using Machine Learning
Melanie Simet, Nima Chartab, Yu Lu +1
With current and upcoming experiments such as WFIRST, Euclid and LSST, we can observe up to billions of galaxies. While such surveys cannot obtain spectra for all observed galaxies…
A Characteristic Mass Scale in the Mass-Metallicity Relation of Galaxies
Guillermo A. Blanc, Yu Lu, Andrew Benson +2
We study the shape of the gas-phase mass-metallicity relation (MZR) of a combined sample of present-day dwarf and high-mass star-forming galaxies using IZI, a Bayesian formalism fo…
Clumpy Galaxies in CANDELS. II. Physical Properties of UV-bright Clumps at
Yicheng Guo, Marc Rafelski, Eric F. Bell +20
Studying giant star-forming clumps in distant galaxies is important to understand galaxy formation and evolution. At present, however, observers and theorists have not reached a co…
The intrinsic characteristics of galaxies on the SFR-stellar mass plane at 1.2<z<4: I. the correlation between stellar age, central density and position relative to the main sequence
Bomee Lee, Mauro Giavalisco, Katherine Whitaker +12
We use the deep CANDELS observations in the GOODS North and South fields to revisit the correlations between stellar mass (), star--formation rate (SFR) and morphology, and to…
CANDELS Sheds Light on the Environmental Quenching of Low-mass Galaxies
Yicheng Guo, Eric F. Bell, Yu Lu +17
We investigate the environmental quenching of galaxies, especially those with stellar masses (M*), beyond the local universe. Essentially all local low-mass quen…
