Introducing Decorated HODs: modeling assembly bias in the galaxy-halo connection

Andrew P. Hearin, Andrew R. Zentner, Frank C. van den Bosch +2

The connection between galaxies and dark matter halos is often inferred from data using probabilistic models, such as the Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD). Conventional HOD formu…

On the Segregation of Dark Matter Substructure

Frank C. van den Bosch, Fangzhou Jiang, Duncan Campbell +1

We present the first comprehensive analysis of the segregation of dark matter subhaloes in their host haloes. Using numerical simulations, we examine the segregation of twelve diff…

Detecting Direct Collapse Black Holes: making the case for CR7

Bhaskar Agarwal, Jarrett L. Johnson, Erik Zackrisson +4

We propose that one of the sources in the recently detected system CR7 by Sobral et al. (2015) through spectro-photometric measurements at harbors a direct collapse black…

Comprehensive Assessment of the Too-Big-to-Fail Problem

Fangzhou Jiang, Frank C. van den Bosch

We use a semi-analytical model for the substructure of dark matter haloes to assess the too-big-to-fail (TBTF) problem. The model accurately reproduces the average subhalo mass and…

Where stars form: inside-out growth and coherent star formation from HST Halpha maps of 2676 galaxies across the main sequence at z~1

Erica June Nelson, Pieter G. van Dokkum, Natascha M. Förster Schreiber +17

We present Ha maps at 1kpc spatial resolution for star-forming galaxies at z~1, made possible by the WFC3 grism on HST. Employing this capability over all five 3D-HST/CANDELS field…

Assessing Colour-dependent Occupation Statistics Inferred from Galaxy Group Catalogues

Duncan Campbell, Frank C van den Bosch, Andrew Hearin +5

We investigate the ability of current implementations of galaxy group finders to recover colour-dependent halo occupation statistics. To test the fidelity of group catalogue inferr…

On the Physical Origin of Galactic Conformity

Andrew P. Hearin, Peter S. Behroozi, Frank C. van den Bosch

Correlations between the star formation rates (SFRs) of nearby galaxies (so-called galactic conformity) have been observed for projected separations up to 4 Mpc, an effect not pred…

Internal Alignments of Red Versus Blue Discs in Dark Matter Halos

Victor P. Debattista, Frank C. van den Bosch, Rok Roskar +3

Large surveys have shown that red galaxies are preferentially aligned with their halos while blue galaxies have a more isotropic distribution. Since halos generally align with thei…
