The Uchuu-UniverseMachine dataset: Galaxies in and around Clusters

Published 26 Sep 2022 in astro-ph.GA and astro-ph.CO | (2209.12918v2)

Abstract: We present the public data release of the Uchuu-UM galaxy catalogues by applying the UniverseMachine algorithm to assign galaxies to the dark matter halos in the Uchuu $N$-body cosmological simulation. It includes a variety of baryonic properties for all galaxies down to $\sim 5\times108 M_{\odot}$ with halos in a mass range of $10{10}<M_{\rm halo}/M_{\odot}<5\times10{15}$ up to redshift $z=10$. Uchuu-UM includes more than $10{4}$ cluster-size halos in a volume of $ 8(h{-1} {\rm Gpc})3$, reproducing observed stellar mass functions across the redshift range of $z=0-7$, galaxy quenched fractions, and clustering statistics at low redshifts. Compared to the previous largest UM catalogue, the Uchuu-UM catalogue includes significantly more massive galaxies hosted by large-mass dark matter halos. Overall, the number density profile of galaxies in dark matter halos follows the dark matter profile, with the profile becoming steeper around the splashback radius and flattening at larger radii. The number density profile of galaxies tends to be steeper for larger stellar masses and depends on the color of galaxies, with red galaxies having steeper slopes at all radii than blue galaxies. The quenched fraction exhibits a strong dependence on the stellar mass and increases toward the inner regions of clusters. The publicly available Uchuu-UM galaxy catalogue presented here can serve to model ongoing and upcoming large galaxy surveys.
