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…
Solving the puzzle of subhalo spins
Yang Wang, Weipeng Lin, Frazer R. Pearce +3
Investigating the spin parameter distribution of subhaloes in two high resolution isolated halo simulations, re- cent work by Onions et al. suggested that typical subhalo spins are…
