What Does Clustering Tell Us About the Buildup of the Red Sequence? (2009)
Tinker, Jeremy L., Wetzel, Andrew R.
We analyze the clustering of red and blue galaxies from four samples spanning a redshift range of 0.4
What determines satellite galaxy disruption? (2009)
Wetzel, Andrew R., White, Martin
In hierarchical structure formation, dark matter halos that merge with larger halos can persist as subhalos. These subhalos are likely hosts of visible galaxies. While the dense halo environment...
The Clustering and Host Halos of Galaxy Mergers at High Redshift (2008)
Wetzel, Andrew R., Cohn, J. D., White, Martin
High-resolution simulations of cosmological structure formation indicate that dark matter substructure in dense environments, like groups and clusters, may survive for a long time. These dark matter...
Simulating Subhalos at High Redshift: Merger Rates, Counts, and Types (2008)
Wetzel, Andrew R., Cohn, J. D., White, Martin
Galaxies are believed to be in one-to-one correspondence with simulated dark matter subhalos. We use high-resolution N-body simulations of cosmological volumes to calculate the statistical properties...
Close Pairs as Proxies for Galaxy Cluster Mergers (2007)
Wetzel, Andrew R., Schulz, A. E., Holz, Daniel E., Warren, Michael S.
Galaxy cluster merger statistics are an important component in understanding the formation of large-scale structure. Unfortunately, it is difficult to study merger properties and evolution directly...
The Clustering of Massive Halos (2006)
Wetzel, Andrew R., Cohn, J. D., White, Martin, Holz, Daniel E., Warren, Michael S.
The clustering properties of dark matter halos are a firm prediction of modern theories of structure formation. We use two large volume, high-resolution N-body simulations to study how the...
