Galaxies and subhaloes in ΛCDM galaxy clusters

Galaxies and subhaloes in ΛCDM galaxy clusters

We combine 10 high resolution resimulations of cluster--sized dark haloes with semi--analytic galaxy formation modelling in order to compare the number density and velocity dispersion profiles of cluster galaxies with those of dark matter substructures (subhaloes). While the radial distribution of galaxies follows closely that of the dark matter, the …
