We investigate from the fractal viewpoint the way in which the dark matter is grouped at z = 0 in the Millennium dark matter cosmological simulation. The determination of the cross to homogeneity in the Millennium Simulation data is described from the behaviour of the fractal dimension and the lacunarity. We use the sliding window technique to calculate the fractal mass-radius dimension, the pre-factor F and the lacunarity of this fractal relation. Besides, we determinate the multi-fractal dimension and the lacunarity spectrum, including their dependence with radial distance. This calculations show a radial distance dependency of all the fractal quantities, with heterogeneity clustering of dark matter haloes up to depths of 100 Mpc/h. The dark matter haloes clustering in the Millennium Simulation shows a radial distance dependency, with two regions clearly defined. The lacunarity spectrum for values of the structure parameter q >= 1 shows regions with relative maxima, revealing the formation of clusters and voids in the dark matter haloes distribution. With the use of the multi-fractal dimension and the lacunarity spectrum, the transition to homogeneity at depths between 100 Mpc/h and 120 Mpc/h for the Millennium Simulation dark matter haloes is detected.
The scientific exploitation of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument Bright Galaxy Survey (DESI BGS) data requires the construction of mocks with galaxy population properties closely mimicking those of the actual DESI BGS targets. We create a high fidelity mock galaxy catalogue, including information about galaxies and their host dark matter subhaloes. The mock catalogue uses subhalo abundance matching (SHAM) with scatter to populate the P-Millennium N-body simulation with galaxies at the median BGS redshift of ~ 0.2, using formation redshift information to assign (g-r) rest-frame colours. …
Galactic star formation and accretion histories from matching galaxies to dark matter haloes
本文提出了一种新的统计方法来确定从z~4到现在的整个宇宙历史中星系的恒星质量与其宿主暗物质晕质量之间的关系。这种多历元丰度匹配(MEAM)模型自洽地考虑到卫星星系在比它们被观测到的时间更早的时候首先成为卫星。我们采用红移依赖的恒星晕质量关系的参数化填充晕和subhaloes在千年模拟与星系,需要同时再现观测到的恒星质量函数在几个红移。使用合并树提取的暗物质模拟结合MEAM,我们预测的平均组装历史的星系,分离成恒星形成的星系内(原位)和吸积的恒星(非原位)。随着红移的增加,恒星形成效率的峰值从z=0时的23%下降到z=4时的9%,而相应的晕质量从10^11.8 M \odot增加到10^12.5 M \odot。中心星系的恒星形成率在红移处达到峰值,这取决于晕的质量;对于大质量的晕,这个峰值出现在宇宙早期,而对于低质量的星系,这个峰值还没有达到。在类似于银河的晕中,大约一半的中心恒星质量在z=0.7之后聚集。在低质量晕中,卫星星系的吸积对中心星系的聚集贡献很小,而在大质量晕中,超过一半的中心恒星质量是在z<2的地方形成的,卫星星系的吸积很大。我们发现,我们的方法意味着一个宇宙恒星形成的历史和特定的恒星形成率的演变是一致的直接推断。我们提出了方便的拟合函数恒星质量,恒星形成率,吸积率作为晕质量和红移的函数。
Cosmological simulations predict that galaxies are embedded into triaxial dark matter haloes, which appear approximately elliptical in projection. Weak gravitational lensing allows us to constrain these halo shapes and thereby test the nature of dark matter. Weak lensing has already provided robust detections of the signature of halo flattening at the mass scales of groups and clusters, whereas results for galaxies have been somewhat inconclusive. Here we combine data from five surveys (NGVSLenS, KiDS/KV450, CFHTLenS, CS82, and RCSLenS) in order to tighten observational constraints on galaxy-s…
