Symfind: Addressing the Fragility of Subhalo Finders and Revealing the Durability of Subhalos

Philip Mansfield, Elise Darragh-Ford, Yunchong Wang +2

A major question in CDM is what this theory actually predicts for the properties of subhalo populations. Subhalos are difficult to simulate and to find within simulations, and…

SAGAbg III: Environmental Stellar Mass Functions, Self-Quenching, and the Stellar-to-Halo Mass Relation in the Dwarf Galaxy Regime

Erin Kado-Fong, Yao-Yuan Mao, Yasmeen Asali +8

Recent efforts have extended our view of the number and properties of satellite galaxies beyond the Local Group firmly down to . A similarly complete…

The SAGA Survey. VI. The Size-Mass Relation for Low-Mass Galaxies Across Environments

Yasmeen Asali, Marla Geha, Erin Kado-Fong +10

We investigate how Milky Way-like environments influence the sizes and structural properties of low-mass galaxies by comparing satellites of Milky Way analogs from the Satellites A…

Stellar Mass Calibrations for Local Low-Mass Galaxies

Mithi A. C. de los Reyes, Yasmeen Asali, Risa Wechsler +10

The stellar masses of galaxies are measured using integrated light via several methods -- however, few of these methods were designed for low-mass ($M_{\star}\lesssim10^{8}\rm{M_{\…

EDEN: Exploring Disks Embedded in N-body simulations of Milky-Way-mass halos from Symphony

Yunchong Wang, Philip Mansfield, Ethan O. Nadler +4

We investigate the impact of galactic disks on the tidal stripping of cold dark matter subhalos within Milky Way (MW)-mass halos () using…

The SAGA Survey. V. Modeling Satellite Systems around Milky Way-mass Galaxies with Updated UniverseMachine

Yunchong Wang, Ethan O. Nadler, Yao-Yuan Mao +11

Environment plays a critical role in shaping the assembly of low-mass galaxies. Here, we use the UniverseMachine (UM) galaxy-halo connection framework and the Data Release 3 of the…
