星系暗物质晕含量的演化

The evolution of the galaxy content of dark matter haloes

S. Contreras, I. Zehavi, C. M. Baugh, N. Padilla, P. Norberg

摘要:

我们使用晕占据分布(HOD)框架来验证两个独立的星系形成模型对星系中暗物质晕含量及其随红移的演化的预测。我们的星系样本对应于由恒星质量和跨度$0 \le z \le 3$定义的固定数量密度范围。我们发现模型预测之间存在显著的相似性。差异出现在低星系数密度是敏感的热晕加热的活动星系核的治疗。HOD形式的演变可以用一种相对简单的方式来描述,我们使用其在$z=0$的值和一个附加的演变参数来模拟每个HOD参数。特别是,我们发现,之间的比率的特征晕质量托管中心和卫星星系可以作为一个敏感的诊断星系演化模型。我们的研究结果可以用来测试和发展星系演化的经验研究,并可以促进未来调查的模拟星系目录的建设。

英文摘要:

We use the halo occupation distribution (HOD) framework to characterise the predictions from two independent galaxy formation models for the galactic content of dark matter haloes and its evolution with redshift. Our galaxy samples correspond to a range of fixed number densities defined by stellar mass and span $0 \le z \le 3$. We find remarkable similarities between the model predictions. Differences arise at low galaxy number densities which are sensitive to the treatment of heating of the hot halo by active galactic nuclei. The evolution of the form of the HOD can be described in a relatively simple way, and we model each HOD parameter using its value at $z=0$ and an additional evolutionary parameter. In particular, we find that the ratio between the characteristic halo masses for hosting central and satellite galaxies can serve as a sensitive diagnostic for galaxy evolution models. Our results can be used to test and develop empirical studies of galaxy evolution and can facilitate the construction of mock galaxy catalogues for future surveys.
