A New Stellar Mass Proxy for Subhalo Abundance Matching
A New Stellar Mass Proxy for Subhalo Abundance Matching
Abstract Subhalo abundance matching (SHAM) has played an important role in improving our understanding of how galaxies populate their host dark matter halos. In essence, the SHAM framework is to find a dark matter halo property that best correlates with an attribute of galaxies, such as stellar mass. The peak …
