摘要:

研究了发光红星系团(LRGs)的光度-晕质量关系的演化。我们从重子振荡光谱巡天(BOSS)SDSS-DR 10中选取了52 000个与第二次红序列星系团巡天(RCS 2)成像数据重叠的~450 deg^2的LOWZ和CMASS LRG样本,将它们分组到绝对星等和红移的bin中,并测量它们的弱透镜信号。源红移分布的中值为0.7,这使我们能够研究透镜信号作为透镜红移的函数。我们解释的透镜信号使用晕模型,从中我们获得晕质量以及质量浓度关系的归一化。我们发现,一旦我们允许在建模中的偏心或卫星,托管LRGs的晕的浓度与暗物质的模拟是一致的。光度与晕质量关系的斜率典型值为1.4,并且不随红移而变化,但我们确实发现了振幅变化的证据:在z=0.36和0.22之间,LOWZ星系的平均晕质量增加了25_{-14}^{+16} %,达到平均值6.43+/-0.52 x 10^13 h70^-1 Msun。如果我们用CMASS星系扩展红移范围,并假设它们是LOWZ样本的祖先,我们发现LRGs的平均质量在z=0.6和0.2之间增加了80^{+39}-28

英文摘要:

We study the evolution of the luminosity-to-halo mass relation of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs). We select a sample of 52 000 LOWZ and CMASS LRGs from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) SDSS-DR10 in the ~450 deg^2 that overlaps with imaging data from the second Red-sequence Cluster Survey (RCS2), group them into bins of absolute magnitude and redshift and measure their weak lensing signals. The source redshift distribution has a median of 0.7, which allows us to study the lensing signal as a function of lens redshift. We interpret the lensing signal using a halo model, from which we obtain the halo masses as well as the normalisations of the mass-concentration relations. We find that the concentration of haloes that host LRGs is consistent with dark matter only simulations once we allow for miscentering or satellites in the modelling. The slope of the luminosity-to-halo mass relation has a typical value of 1.4 and does not change with redshift, but we do find evidence for a change in amplitude: the average halo mass of LOWZ galaxies increases by 25_{-14}^{+16} % between z=0.36 and 0.22 to an average value of 6.43+/-0.52 x 10^13 h70^-1 Msun. If we extend the redshift range using the CMASS galaxies and assume that they are the progenitors of the LOWZ sample, we find that the average mass of LRGs increases by 80^{+39}_{-28} % between z=0.6 and 0.2
