THE ENVIRONMENT
The properties of galaxies correlate with the environment:



Morphology density relation (Dressler 1980, Dressler+ 1997)
Denser environments host more massive, redder galaxies with lower star-formation
rates (Kauffmann+ 2004)
Galaxies in different environments evolve with different timescales
..But various galaxy properties are strongly correlated even in a fixed environment..

How are the mass and environment
related?
What Regulates Galaxy Evolution? - 2013, April 22th-26th
The field mass function
(e.g. Fontana+ 2006, Bundy+ 2006, Franceschini+ 2006, Borch+ 2006, Vergani+ 2008, Drory+09, Pozzetti+ 2011)
For high mass galaxies,
the evolution of the total
mass function from z = 1
to z = 0 is relatively
modest
Low mass galaxies
evolve more than high
mass galaxies

Several studies have analyzed separately
galaxies of different types (colors, star
formation activity, structural parameters,
morphologies)

MY QUESTIONS

Why doesn’t the global envirnoment affect
galaxy masses?
What is the role of the environment at lower
masses?
Why do simulations overpredict the number of
low mass galaxies?

SUMMARY




Both at high and low -z, the total mass function does not
depend on environment.
At high-z, red and blue MF are different, but no differences are
detected in MF in different environments, for red and blue
galaxies separately.
The evolution of the mass function is very similar in all the
environments.
Semianalytic models can reproduce only the observed field
mass function at low-z. As a consequence, they do not
reproduce neither the observed evolution nor the
independence of the mass function on the environment.
