THE COLORS OF CENTRAL AND SATELLITE GALAXIES IN zCOSMOS OUT TOz≃ 0.8 AND IMPLICATIONS FOR QUENCHING

Abstract: We examine the red fraction of central and satellite galaxies in the large zCOSMOS group catalog out to z ≃ 0.8 correcting for both the incompleteness in stellar mass and for the less than perfect purities of the central and satellite samples. We show that, at all masses and at all redshifts, the fraction of satellite galaxies that have been quenched, i.e., are red, is systematically higher than that of centrals, as seen locally in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The satellite quenching efficiency, which … Show more

“…This is consistent with what others have seen at this redshift (e.g. Gerke et al 2007;Knobel et al 2013;), and we show the Knobel et al (2013) results as the yellow shaded region for comparison. However, when we consider the full stellar mass range accessible to us, including the photometric redshift extension down to M star = 10 9.5 M , we find evidence that f convert decreases with decreasing stellar mass, becoming consistent with zero at the lowest masses.…”

“…From these same surveys it is possible to learn something about the evolving role of environment from measurements of local density or group catalogues (e.g. Giodini et al 2009;George et al 2011a;Knobel et al 2013;Lin et al 2014). In the context of the halo model (e.g.…”

“…The observational situation is not clear, e.g. Knobel (2013) do not find any redshift evolution of the red central fraction at a given stellar mass, while Tal et al (2014) find a strong z-dependence for the cumulative red central fractions. To overcome some of the limitations of the "vdB" transition fractions, we have defined and estimated "refined" transition fractions f trans,ref that we detail in the following section.…”

“…The parent vs. satellite nature of a galaxy (cf. Berlind et al 2005;Tinker et al 2012) is envisioned to be key to explaining some critical observations (Peng et al 2012; Knobel et al 2013). However, disentangling the physics involved is complicated greatly by the different degrees to which environment correlates with various galaxy properties, such as morphology and color (Blanton et al 2003).…”
