Illustris模拟中星系速度偏差的性质和成因

Properties and Origin of Galaxy Velocity Bias in the Illustris Simulation

Jia-Ni Ye, Hong Guo, Zheng Zheng, Idit Zehavi

摘要:

我们使用来自Illustris套件的流体动力学星系形成模拟来研究星系速度偏差的起源和性质,即,星系和晕内暗物质速度分布的差异。我们发现,星系的速度偏差是一个减少的函数的比率星系恒星质量的主机晕质量。一般来说,中心星系相对于暗物质晕或晕核并不是静止的,其速度色散大于暗物质的0.04倍。中心星系的速度偏差主要是由中心星系和卫星星系之间的密切相互作用引起的。对于卫星星系,速度偏差与它们被吸积到主晕上后的动力学和潮汐演化历史有关。这取决于吸积后的时间和它们与晕中心的距离,大质量的卫星通常比暗物质移动得更慢。研究结果与小尺度红移空间星系成团数据的模拟结果基本一致,有助于改进红移空间星系成团模型。

英文摘要:

We use the hydrodynamical galaxy formation simulations from the Illustris suite to study the origin and properties of galaxy velocity bias, i.e., the difference between the velocity distributions of galaxies and dark matter inside halos. We find that galaxy velocity bias is a decreasing function of the ratio of galaxy stellar mass to host halo mass. In general, central galaxies are not at rest with respect to dark matter halos or the core of halos, with a velocity dispersion above 0.04 times that of the dark matter. The central galaxy velocity bias is found to be mostly caused by the close interactions between the central and satellite galaxies. For satellite galaxies, the velocity bias is related to their dynamical and tidal evolution history after being accreted onto the host halos. It depends on the time after the accretion and their distances from the halo centers, with massive satellites generally moving more slowly than the dark matter. The results are in broad agreements with those inferred from modeling small-scale redshift-space galaxy clustering data, and the study can help improve models of redshift-space galaxy clustering.
