来自SDSS和ELUCID模拟的星系群(晕)排列

Galaxy-group (halo) alignments from SDSS DR7 and the ELUCID simulation

Youcai Zhang, Xiaohu Yang, Hong Guo

摘要:

基于Sloan数字巡天(SDSS)观测的星系和ELUCID约束模拟的相应重建区域的暗晕,研究了中心星系相对于星群表中主星系群的排列,以及ELUCID模拟中中心星系相对于相应暗晕的排列。利用一种新的邻域丰度匹配方法,将观测到的Galerkin与ELUCID模拟中的暗物质晕进行了匹配。在观测中,发现星系的主轴优先与其宿主星系群的主轴对齐。星系群的排列有一个颜色依赖性,即红色的中心比蓝色的中心沿着它们的主星系群的主轴有更强的排列。结合观测中的星系和ELUCID模拟中的subhalos,我们还发现,中央星系的长轴在ELUCID模拟中与其相应的subhalos的长轴对齐。我们发现,星系群和星系subhalo对齐的信号更强的星系在更大质量的晕。我们发现,模拟中的主晕与SDSS匹配的子晕系统之间的对准比观测中的星系群对准稍强。

英文摘要:

Based on galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and subhalos in the corresponding reconstructed region from the constrained simulation of ELUCID, we study the alignment of central galaxies relative to their host groups in the group catalog, as well as the alignment relative to the corresponding subhalos in the ELUCID simulation. Galaxies in observation are matched to dark matter subhalos in the ELUCID simulation using a novel neighborhood abundance matching method. In observation, the major axes of galaxies are found to be preferentially aligned to the major axes of their host groups. There is a color dependence of galaxy-group alignment that red centrals have a stronger alignment along the major axes of their host groups than blue centrals. Combining galaxies in observation and subhalos in the ELUCID simulation, we also find that central galaxies have their major axes to be aligned to the major axes of their corresponding subhalos in the ELUCID simulation. We find that the galaxy-group and galaxy-subhalo alignment signals are stronger for galaxies in more massive halos. We find that the alignments between main subhalos and the SDSS matched subhalo systems in simulation are slightly stronger than the galaxy-group alignments in observation.
