Revisiting the bulge-halo conspiracy I: Dependence on galaxy properties and halo mass
Francesco Shankar, Alessandro Sonnenfeld, Gary A. Mamon +9
We carry out a systematic investigation of the total mass density profile of massive (Mstar>2e11 Msun) early-type galaxies and its dependence on galactic properties and host halo m…
Setting firmer constraints on the evolution of the most massive, central galaxies from their local abundances and ages
Stewart Buchan, Francesco Shankar
There is still much debate surrounding how the most massive, central galaxies in the local universe have assembled their stellar mass, especially the relative roles of in-situ grow…
Avoiding progenitor bias: The structural and mass evolution of Brightest Group and Cluster Galaxies in Hierarchical models since z~1
Francesco Shankar, Stewart Buchan, Alessandro Rettura +10
The mass and structural evolution of massive galaxies is one of the hottest topics in galaxy formation. This is because it may reveal invaluable insights into the still debated evo…
On the intermediate-redshift central stellar mass-halo mass relation, and implications for the evolution of the most massive galaxies since z~1
Francesco Shankar, Hong Guo, Vincent Bouillot +20
The stellar mass-halo mass relation is a key constraint in all semi-analytic, numerical, and semi-empirical models of galaxy formation and evolution. However, its exact shape and r…
