摘要: We extend the halo-based group finder developed by \citet[][]{Yang2005a} to
use data {\it simultaneously} with either photometric or spectroscopic
redshifts. A mock galaxy redshift survey constructed from a high-resolution
N-body simulation is used to evaluate the performance of this extended group
finder. For galaxies with magnitude ${\rm z\le 21}$ and redshift $0

摘要: Realtime trigger and localization of bursts are the key functions of GECAM, which is an all-sky gamma-ray monitor launched in Dec 10, 2020. We developed a multifunctional trigger and localization software operating on the CPU of the GECAM electronic box (EBOX). This onboard software has the following features: high trigger efficiency for real celestial bursts with a suppression of false triggers caused by charged particle bursts and background fluctuation, dedicated localization algorithm optimized for short and long bursts respetively, short time latency of the trigger information which is downlinked throught the BeiDou satellite navigation System (BDS). This paper presents the detailed design and deveopment of this trigger and localization software system of GECAM, including the main functions, general design, workflow and algorithms, as well as the verification and demonstration of this software, including the on-ground trigger tests with simulated gamma-ray bursts made by a dedicated X-ray tube and the in-flight performance to real gamma-ray bursts and magnetar bursts.

摘要: We test the Emergent Gravity(EG) theory using the galaxy-galaxy lensing technique based on SDSS DR7 data. In the EG scenario, we do not expect color dependence of the galaxy sample in the 'apparent dark matter' predicted by EG, which is exerted only by the baryonic mass. If the baryonic mass is similar, then the predicted lensing profiles from the baryonic mass should be similar according to the EG, regardless of the color of the galaxy sample. We use the stellar mass of the galaxy as a proxy of its baryonic mass. We divide our galaxy sample into 5 stellar mass bins, and further classify them as red and blue subsamples in each stellar mass bin. If we set halo mass and concentration as free parameters, $\Lambda$CDM is favored by our data in terms of the reduced $\chi^2$ while EG fails to explain the color dependence of ESDs from the galaxy-galaxy lensing measurement.
