了解晕质量和星系质量交叉关联函数的形状

Understanding the shape of the halo-mass and galaxy-mass cross-correlation functions

E. Hayashi, S. D. M. White

摘要:

我们使用千禧年模拟测量的互相关晕中心和质量(或相当于平均密度分布的暗晕)在LCDM宇宙学。我们给出了半径在10 kpc/h < r < 30 Mpc/h范围内,晕质量在4 e10 Msol/h < M200 <4 e14 Msol/h范围内的结果。在z=0和z=0.76处,这些互相关都令人惊讶地很好地拟合,通过NFW或Einasto形式的密度分布来近似内部区域,通过线性质量自相关函数的偏置版本来近似外部区域,并且通过采用两者的最大值来进行比较。我们使用千禧年模拟中的星系形成的模拟来探索这些结果是如何反映在星系和质量之间的互相关。这些都可以通过星系-星系透镜效应直接观测到。在这里,我们还发现,简单的模型可以非常好地代表模拟结果,通常<10%。这样的模型可以用来扩展我们的结果,以其他红移,宇宙学与其他参数,以及其他假设星系如何填充暗晕。在星系-星系透镜信号中预测的特征应该为LCDM宇宙学提供强有力的测试,以及了解星系如何在其中形成的途径。

英文摘要:

We use the Millennium Simulation to measure the cross-correlation between halo centres and mass (or equivalently the average density profiles of dark haloes) in a LCDM cosmology. We present results for radii in the range 10 kpc/h < r < 30 Mpc/h for halo masses in the range 4e10 Msol/h < M200 < 4e14 Msol/h. Both at z=0 and at z=0.76 these cross-correlations are surprisingly well fit by approximating the inner region by a density profile of NFW or Einasto form, the outer region by a biased version of the linear mass autocorrelation function, and by adopting the maximum of the two where they are comparable. We use a simulation of the formation of galaxies within the Millennium Simulation to explore how these results are reflected in cross-correlations between galaxies and mass. These are directly observable through galaxy-galaxy lensing. Here also we find that simple models can represent the simulation results remarkably well, typically to < 10%. Such models can be used to extend our results to other redshifts, to cosmologies with other parameters, and to other assumptions about how galaxies populate dark haloes. The characteristic features predicted in the galaxy-galaxy lensing signal should provide a strong test of the LCDM cosmology as well as a route to understanding how galaxies form within it.
