ELUCID - Exploring the Local Universe with reConstructed Initial Density field III: Constrained Simulation in the SDSS Volume
Huiyuan Wang, H. J. Mo, Xiaohu Yang +7
A method we developed recently for the reconstruction of the initial density field in the nearby Universe is applied to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7. A high-resoluti…
Mapping the real space distributions of galaxies in SDSS DR7: I. Two Point Correlation Functions
Feng Shi, Xiaohu Yang, Huiyuan Wang +8
Using a method to correct redshift space distortion (RSD) for individual galaxies, we mapped the real space distributions of galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Re…
An empirical model to form and evolve galaxies in dark matter halos
Shijie Li, Youcai Zhang, Xiaohu Yang +8
Based on the star formation histories (SFH) of galaxies in halos of different masses, we develop an empirical model to grow galaxies in dark mattet halos. This model has very few i…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). XIII. The Luminosity and Mass Function of Galaxies in the Core of the Virgo Cluster and the Contribution from Disrupted Satellites
Laura Ferrarese, Patrick Cote, Ruben Sanchez-Janssen +21
We present measurements of the galaxy luminosity and stellar mass function in a 3.71 deg (0.3 Mpc) area in the core of the Virgo cluster, based on data from the Nex…
A Chandra Study of the Image Power Spectra of 41 Cool Core and Non-Cool Core Galaxy Clusters
Chenhao Zhang, Haiguang Xu, Zhenghao Zhu +9
In this work we propose a new diagnostic to segregate cool core (CC) clusters from non-cool core (NCC) clusters by studying the two-dimensional power spectra of the X-ray images ob…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey XVI. The Angular Momentum of Dwarf Early-Type Galaxies from Globular Cluster Satellites
Elisa Toloba, Biao Li, Puragra Guhathakurta +10
We analyze the kinematics of six Virgo cluster dwarf early-type galaxies (dEs) from their globular cluster (GC) systems. We present new Keck/DEIMOS spectroscopy for three of them a…
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey. XIX. Tomography of Milky Way Substructures in the NGVS Footprint
Deborah Lokhorst, Else Starkenburg, Alan McConnachie +8
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) is a deep survey targeting the Virgo cluster of galaxies at 16.5~Mpc. This survey provides high-quality photometry over an…
