The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure
• Motivation: A biased view of dark matters• Gravitational Instability
– The spherical collapse model– Tri-axial (ellipsoidal) collapse
• The random-walk description– The halo mass function– Halo progenitors, formation, and merger trees– Environmental effects in hierarchical models– (SDSS galaxies and their environment)
• The Halo Model

Galaxy clustering depends on type
Large samples (SDSS, 2dF) now available to quantify this
You can observe a lot just by watching. -Yogi Berra

Light is a biased tracer
Not all galaxies are fair tracers of dark matter;To use galaxies as probes of underlying dark matter distribution, must understand ‘bias’

Cold Dark Matter
• Simulations include gravity only (no gas) • Late-time field retains memory of initial conditions
• Cosmic capitalism
Co-moving volume ~ 100 Mpc/h
![Page 9: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Cold Dark Matter
• Cold: speeds are non-relativistic
• To illustrate, 1000 km/s ×10Gyr ≈ pc; from z~1000 to present, nothing (except photons!) travels more than ~ 10Mpc
• Dark: no idea (yet) when/where the stars light-up
• Matter: gravity the dominant interaction

Models of halo abundances and clustering:

Goal:Use knowledge of initial conditions (CMB) to make inferences about
late-time, nonlinear structures

Hierarchical models
Springel et al. 2005
Dark matter ‘haloes’ are basic building blocks of ‘nonlinear’structure

Assume a spherical cow….
![Page 15: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Spherical evolution model• Initially, Ei = – GM/Ri + (HiRi)2/2
• Shells remain concentric as object evolves; if denser than background, object pulls itself together as background expands around it
• At ‘turnaround’: E = – GM/rmax = Ei
• So – GM/rmax = – GM/Ri + (HiRi)2/2
• Hence (Ri/r) = 1 – Hi2Ri
3/2GM
= 1 – (3Hi2 /8G) (4Ri
3/3)/M
= 1 – 1/(1+i) = i/(1+i) ≈ i
![Page 16: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Virialization• Final object virializes: −W = 2K• Evir = W+K = W/2 = −GM/2rvir= −GM/rmax
– so rvir = rmax/2:
• Ratio of initial to final size = (density)⅓ – final density determined by initial overdensity
• To form an object at present time, must have had a critical overdensity initially
• Critical density ↔ Critical link-length! • To form objects at high redshift, must have
been even more overdense initially
![Page 17: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Virial Motions
• (Ri/rvir) ~ f(i): ratio of initial and final sizes depends on initial overdensity
• Mass M ~ Ri3 (since initial overdensity « 1)
• So final virial density ~ M/rvir3 ~ (Ri/rvir)3 ~
function of critical density: hence, all virialized objects have the same density, whatever their mass
• V2 ~ GM/rvir ~ M2/3: massive objects have larger internal velocities/temperatures
![Page 20: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Halos and Fingers-of-God• Virial equilibrium: • V2 = GM/r = GM/(3M/4)1/3
• Since halos have same density, massive halos have larger random internal velocities: V2 ~ M2/3
• V2 = GM/r = (G/H2) (M/r3) (Hr)2
= (8G/3H2) (3M/4r3) (Hr)2/2
= 200 /c (Hr)2/2 = (10 Hr)2
• Halos should appear ~ ten times longer along line of sight than perpendicular to it: ‘Fingers-of-God’
• Think of V2 as Temperature; then Pressure ~ V2

From Walks to Halos: Ansätze
• f(c,s)ds = fraction of walks which first crossc(z) at s
≈ fraction of initial volume in patches of comoving volume V(s) which were just dense enough to collapse at z
≈ fraction of initial mass in regions which each initially contained m =V(1+c) ≈ V(s) and which were just dense enough to collapse at z (is comoving density of background)
≈ dm m n(m,c)/

The Random Walk Model
![Page 26: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Scaling laws
• Recall characteristic scale V(s) defined by c
2(z) ~ s ~ 2(R) ~ ∫dk/k k3 P(k) W2(kR)
• If P(k) ~ kn with n>−3, then s ~ R–3–n
• Since M~R3, characteristic mass scale at z is
M*(z)~ [c(z)] –6/(3+n)
• Since c(z) decreases with time, characteristic mass increases with time
→ Hierarchical Clustering
![Page 27: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Random walk with absorbing barrier• f(first cross 1 at s) = 0∫
sdS f(first cross 0 at S)
× f(first cross 1 at s | first cross 0 at S) • (where 1 >0 and s>S )• But second term is function of 1 −0 and s − S • (because subsequent steps independent of previous ones,
so statistics of subsequent steps are simply a shift of origin –– a key assumption we will return to later)
• f(1,s) = 0∫sdS f(0,S) f(1−0|s−S)
• To solve….
![Page 28: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• …take Laplace Transform of both sides:
• L(1,t) = 0∫∞ds f(1,s) exp(–ts)
= 0∫∞ds exp(–ts) 0∫
sdS f(0,S) f(1–0,s–S)
= 0∫∞dS f(0,S) e-tS s-S∫
∞ds f(1–0,s–S) e-t(s-S)
= L(0,t) L(1–0,t)
• Solution must have form: L(1,t) = exp(–C1)
• After some algebra (see notes): L(1,t) = exp(–1√2t)
• Inverting this transform yields:
• f(1,s) ds = (12/2πs)½ exp(–1
2/2s) ds/s
• Notice: few walks cross before 12=2s
![Page 29: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The Mass Function
• f(c,s) ds = (c2/2πs)½ exp(–c
2/2s) ds/s
• For power-law P(k): c2/s = (M/M*)(n+3)/3
• n(m,c) dm = (/m)/√2 (n+3)/3 dm/m (M/M*)(n+3)/6 exp[–(M/M*)(n+3)/3/2]

Simplification because…
• Everything local• Evolution determined by cosmology
(competition between gravity and expansion)
• Statistics determined by initial fluctuation field: since Gaussian, statistics specified by initial power-spectrum P(k)
• Fact that only very fat cows are spherical is a detail (crucial for precision cosmology)
![Page 31: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Only very fat cows are spherical….

The Halo Mass
Function•Small halos collapse/virialize first•Can also model halo spatial distribution•Massive halos more strongly clustered
(Reed et al. 2003)
(current parametrizations by Sheth & Tormen 1999; Jenkins etal. 2001)
![Page 33: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Theory predicts…• Can rescale halo abundances to ‘universal’
form, independent of P(k), z, cosmology– Greatly simplifies likelihood analyses
• Intimate connection between abundance and clustering of dark halos– Can use cluster clustering as check that cluster
mass-observable relation correctly calibrated
• Important to test if these fortunate simplifications also hold at 1% precision
(Sheth & Tormen 1999)

Non-Maxwellian Velocities?• v = vvir + vhalo
• Maxwellian/Gaussian velocity within halo (dispersion depends on parent halo mass) + Gaussian velocity of parent halo (from linear theory ≈ independent of m)
• Hence, at fixed m, distribution of v is convolution of two Gaussians, i.e.,
p(v|m) is Gaussian, with dispersion
vir2(m) + Lin
2 = (m/m*)2/3vir2(m*) + Lin

Two contributions to velocities• Virial motions
(i.e., nonlinear theory terms) dominate for particles in massive halos
• Halo motions (linear theory) dominate for particles in low mass halos
Growth rate of halo motions ~ consistent with linear theory
~ mass1/3
![Page 36: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Exponential tails are generic• p(v) = ∫dm mn(m) G(v|m)
F(t) = ∫dv eivt p(v) = ∫dm n(m)m e-t2vir2(m)/2 e-t2Lin
2/2
• For P(k) ~ k−1, mass function n(m) ~ power-law times exp[−(m/m*)2/3/2], so integral is:
F(t) = e-t2Lin2/2 [1 + t2vir
2(m*)]−1/2
• Fourier transform is product of Gaussian and FT of K0 Bessel function, so p(v) is convolution of G(v) with K0(v)
• Since vir(m*)~ Lin, p(v) ~ Gaussian at |v|<Lin but exponential-like tails extend to large v (Sheth 1996)
![Page 37: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Comparison with simulations
• Gaussian core with exponential tails as expected!

Spherical evolution model• ‘Collapse’ depends on initial over-density i; same for all initial sizes• Critical density depends on cosmology• Final objects all have same density, whatever their initial sizes•Collapsed objects called halos; ~ 200× denser than background, whatever their mass

Other features of the model
• Quantify forest of merger histories as function of halo mass (formation times, mass accretion, etc.)
• Model spatial distribution of halos: (halo clustering/biasing)– Abundance + clustering calibrates Mass
• Halos and their environment: – Nature vs. nurture—key to simplifying models
of galaxy formation

Merger trees• (Bond et al. 1991; Lacey
& Cole 1993)• Fraction of M (halo which
virialized at T) which was in m<M at t<T: f[s,c(t)|S,c(T)] ds= f[s−S,c(t)−c(T)] ds= f(m,t|M,T) dm = (m/M) N(m,t|M,T) dm
• N(m|M) is mean number of smaller halos at earlier time

The Peak-Background Split• Consider random walks centered on cells
which have overdensity when smoothed on some large scale V: M=V(1+) » M*
• On large scales (M » M*, so S(M) «1), fluctuations are small (i.e., «1), so walks start from close to origin:
• f(m,t|M,T) dm = f[s−S,c(t)−] ds ≈ f[s,c−] ds ≈ f[s,c] ds − (df/dc) ≈ f(s,c) ds [1 −(/c) (dlnf/dlnc)] ≈ f(s,c) ds [1 −(/c) (1 – c

Halo Bias on Large Scales• Ratio of mean number density in dense regions to
mean number density in Universe:
N(m,t|M,T)/n(m,t)V = (M/m) f(m,t|M,T)/(V/m)f(m,t)
[recall dense region had mass M = V(1+)]• But from peak-background split: f(m,t|
M,T) ≈ f(m,c) [1 −(/c)(1 – c2/s)]
• N(m,t|M,T)/n(m,t)V ≈ (1+) [1 −(/c) (1 – c2/s)]
≈ 1 − (/c) (1 – c2/s) + = 1 + b(m)
• Large-scale bias factor: b(m) ≡ 1 + (c2/s – 1)/c
– Increases rapidly with m at m»m*

Halos and their environment
• Easier to get to here from here
than from here • Dense regions host
more massive halos
n(m,t|) = [1 + b(m,t)] n(m,t)
b(m,t) increases with m, so n(m,t|) ≠ (1+) n(m,t)Fundamental basis for models of halo bias (and hence of galaxy bias)

Environmental effects• In hierarchical models, close

• Observed correlations with environment test hierarchical galaxy formation models

Environmental effects• Gastrophysics determined by formation
history of parent halo
• All environmental trends come from fact that massive halos populate densest regions

THE HALO MODEL
![Page 55: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Light is a biased tracer
Not all galaxies are fair tracers of dark matter;To use galaxies as probes of underlying dark matter distribution, must understand ‘bias’
![Page 56: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
How to describe different point processes which are all built from the same underlying distribution?
THE HALO MODEL
![Page 57: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Center-satellite process requires knowledge of how 1) halo abundance; 2) halo clustering; 3) halo profiles; 4) number of galaxies per halo; all depend on halo mass.
(Revived, then discarded in 1970s by Peebles, McClelland & Silk)
![Page 58: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Halo Profiles
• Not quite isothermal • Depend on halo mass, formation time; massive halos less concentrated
• Distribution of shapes (axis-ratios) known (Jing & Suto 2001)
Navarro, Frenk & White (1996)
![Page 59: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
The halo-model of clustering• Two types of pairs: both particles in same halo, or
particles in different halos
• ξdm(r) = ξ1h(r) + ξ2h(r)
• All physics can be decomposed similarly: ‘nonlinear’ effects from within halo, ‘linear’ from outside
![Page 60: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
The dark-matter correlation function
ξdm(r) = ξ1h(r) + ξ2h(r)
The 1-halo piece• ξ1h(r) ~ ∫dm n(m) m2 ξdm(m|r)/2
• n(m): number density of halos• ξdm(m|r): fraction of total pairs, m2, in an m-
halo which have separation r; depends on density profile within m-halos
• Need not know spatial distribution of halos! • This term only matters on scales smaller than
the virial radius of a typical M* halo (~ Mpc)
![Page 61: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
ξdm(r) = ξ1h(r) + ξ2h(r)
• ξ2h(r) = ∫dm1 m1n(m1) ∫dm2 m2n(m2) ξ2h(r|m1,m2)
• Two-halo term dominates on large scales, where peak-background split estimate of halo clustering should be accurate: h ~ b(m)dm
• ξ2h(r|m1,m2) ~ ‹h2› ~ b(m1)b(m2) ‹dm
2›
• ξ2h(r) ≈ [∫dm mn(m) b(m)/]2 ξdm(r)
• On large scales, linear theory is accurate: ξdm(r) ≈ ξLin(r) so ξ2h(r) ≈ beff
2 ξLin(r)
![Page 62: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Halo-model of galaxy clustering• Two types of pairs: only difference from dark matter
is that number of pairs in m-halo is not m2
• ξdm(r) = ξ1h(r) + ξ2h(r)
• Distribution within halos is small scale detail
![Page 63: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Halo-model of galaxy clustering• Halo abundances and clustering matter on large scales • Spatial distribution within halos (halo density
profiles) only matters on small scales
• Different galaxy types populate different halo masses
![Page 64: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
The halo-model of galaxy clustering• Write two components as
– ξ1gal(r) ~ ∫dm n(m) g2(m) ξdm(m|r)/gal2
– ξ2gal(r) ≈ [∫dm n(m)g1(m)b(m)/gal]2 ξdm(r)
– gal = ∫dm n(m) g1(m): number density of galaxies– ξdm(m|r): fraction of pairs in m-halos at separation r
• g2(m) is mean number of galaxy pairs in m-halos (= m2 for dark matter)• g1(m) is mean number of galaxies in m-halos (= m for dark matter)
• Think of g1(m) as ‘weight’ applied to each dark matter halo - galaxies ‘biased’ if g1(m) not proportional to m
![Page 65: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Halo-model of un-weighted correlations
Write 1+ξ = DD/RR as sum of two components:
ξ1gal(r) ~ ∫dm n(m) g2(m) ξdm(m|r)/gal2
ξ2gal(r) ≈ [∫dm n(m) g1(m) b(m)/gal]2 ξdm(r) ≈ bgal
2 ξdm(r)
g2(m) is mean number of galaxy pairs in m-halos (= m2 for dark matter)g1(m) is mean number of galaxies in m-halos (= m for dark matter)
![Page 66: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Halo-model of galaxy clustering• Two types of pairs: only difference from dark matter
is that number of pairs in m-halo is not m2
• ξdm(r) = ξ1h(r) + ξ2h(r)
• Spatial distribution within halos is small-scale detail
![Page 67: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Type-dependent clustering: Why?
populate massive halos = strongly clustered
populate lower mass halos = less strongly clustered
Spatial distribution within halos second order effect (on >100 kpc)

Two approaches• Halo Occupation Distribution
(Jing et al., Benson et al.; Seljak; Scoccimarro et al.)– Model Ngal(>L|Mhalo) for range of L (Zehavi et al.; Zheng et
al.; Berlind et al.; Kravtsov et al.; Conroy et al.; Porciani, Magliochetti; Collister, Lahav)
– Differentiating gives LF as function of Mhalo
(Tinker et al., Skibba et al.):
• Conditional Luminosity Function (Peacock, Smith): – Model LF as function of Mhalo , and infer HOD (Yang,
Mo, van den Bosch; Cooray)
![Page 70: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Higher-order moments• n-th order correlation function depends on n-th
order moment of p(Ngal|Mhalo)
• In centre + Poisson satellite model, these are all completely specified
• On large scales, higher order moments come from suitably weighting perturbation theory results
• Incorporating halo shapes matters on small scales (Smith, Watts & Sheth 2006)
![Page 71: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Satellite galaxy counts ~ Poisson
• Write g1(m) ≡ ‹g(m)› = 1 + ‹gs(m)›• Think of ‹gs(m)› as mean number of satellite
galaxies per m halo• Minimal model sets number of satellites as
simple as possible ~ Poisson: • So g2(m) ≡ ‹g(g-1)› = ‹gs (1+gs)› = ‹gs› +
‹gs2› = 2‹gs› + ‹gs›2 = (1+‹gs›)2 - 1
• Simulations show this ‘sub-Poisson’ model works well (Kravtsov et al. 2004)
![Page 72: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Halo Substructure
• Halo substructure = galaxies is good model (Klypin et al. 1999; Kravtsov et al. 2005)
• Agrees with semi-analytic models and SPH (Berlind et al. 2004; Zheng et al. 2005; Croton et al. 2006)
• Setting n(>L) = n(>Vcirc) works well for all clustering analyses to date, including z~3 (Conroy et al. 2006)
![Page 73: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
![Page 74: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Halo-model of mark correlations
Write WW as sum of two components (WD similar):
W1gal(r) ~ ∫dm n(m) g2(m) ‹W|m›2 ξdm(m|r)/gal2
W2gal(r) ≈ [∫dm n(m) g1(m) ‹W|m› b(m)/gal]2 ξdm(r)
On large scales, expect
= M(r) = 1+W(r)1+ξ(r)
= 1 + BW ξdm(r) 1 + bgal ξdm(r)
WWDD
Gradients can be included (only matter for 1h term)
![Page 75: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Note assumption!
• Whereas mark may correlate with halo mass, there is no additional correlation between mark and environment
• Greatly simplifies galaxy formation models and interpretation of galaxy clustering: – Some semi-analytic galaxy formation models
assume this explicitly (when use semi-analytic merger trees rather than trees from simulation)
![Page 76: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Assumptions (to test)• Halo profiles depend on mass, not
environment• Galaxy properties, so p(Ngal|L,m), and so
g1(m) and g2(m), depend on halo mass, not environment
• All environmental dependence comes from correlation between halo mass and environment:
n(m|) = [1+b(m)n(m)– Mass function ‘top-heavy’ in dense regions
![Page 77: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
• Assume cosmology → halo profiles, halo abundance, halo clustering
• Calibrate g(m) by matching ngal and ξgal(r) of full sample
• Make mock catalog assuming same g(m) for all environments
• Measure clustering in sub-samples defined similarly to SDSS
SDSS

• Environment = neighbours within 8 Mpc
• Clustering stronger in dense regions
• Dependence on density NOT monotonic in less dense regions!
• Same seen in mock catalogs
SDSS
Choice of scale not important
Mass function ‘top-heavy’ in dense regions Massive halos have smaller radii (halos have same density whatever their mass)
Gaussian initial conditions? Void galaxies, though low mass, should be strongly clustered
Little room for additional (e.g. assembly bias) environmental effects
![Page 79: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Halo Model is simplistic …
• Nonlinear physics on small scales from virial theorem
• Linear perturbation theory on scales larger than virial radius (exploits 20 years of hard work between 1970-1990)
…but quite accurate!
![Page 80: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Thus, one can …
• Model both real and redshift space observations
• Model clustering of thermal SZ effect as a weight proportional to pressure, applied to halos/clusters
• Model clustering of kinetic SZ signal as a weight, proportional to halo/cluster momentum
• Model weak gravitational galaxy-galaxy lensing as cross-correlation between galaxies and mass in halos
• (see review article Cooray & Sheth 2002)
![Page 81: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
• Number density and clustering as function of luminosity now measured in 2dF,SDSS
• Assuming there are NO large scale environmental effects, halo model provides estimates of luminosity distribution as function of halo mass (interesting, relatively unexplored connection to cluster LFs)
• Suggests BCGs are special population (another interesting, unexplored connection to clusters!)

The Holy Grail
Halo model provides natural framework within which to discuss, interpret most measures of clustering; it is the natural language of galaxy ‘bias’

Cracks in the standard model• Sheth &Tormen (2004) measure correlation
between formation time and environment:– At fixed mass, close pairs form earlier
– Point out relevance to halo model description
– Measurement repeated and confirmed by Gao et al. (2005), Harker et al. (2006), Wechsler et al. (2006)
• Early formation more clustered (even at fixed mass) at low masses
• Does this matter for surveys which use clustering of (primarily) luminous galaxies for cosmology (Abbas & Sheth 2005, 2006; Croton et al. 2006)?
![Page 85: The Phenomenology of Large Scale Structure](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051401/56814e5b550346895dbbf795/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)

A direct test of the importance of this effect using the SDSS
Based on – Abbas & Sheth (2005): Clustering as
function of environment (theory)– Abbas & Sheth (2006): Environmental
dependence of clustering in the SDSS– Abbas & Sheth (2007): Strong clustering
of under-dense regions
