Photometric Objects Around Cosmic Webs (PAC) Delineated in a Spectroscopic Survey. II. Morphology, Color, and Size Dependences of the Stellar–Halo Mass Relation for Massive Galaxies

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we report a robust measurement of the morphology, color, and galaxy size dependences of the stellar–halo mass relation (SHMR) at the high-mass end (1011.3 M ⊙ < M ⋆ < 1011.7 M ⊙) at redshift z s ∼ 0.6. 3 3 Throughout the paper, we use z s for redshift and z for the z-band magnitude. Applying our method, Photometric objects Around Cosmic webs (PAC), developed in a previous work to Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey and Hyper Suprime-cam Subaru Strategic Program observations, we measure the excess surface density ( n ¯ 2 w p ( r p ) ) of satellites around massive central galaxies with different morphologies indicated by the Sérsic index n. We find that more compact (larger n) central galaxies are surrounded by more satellites. With the abundance matching method, we estimate the halo mass for the central galaxies and find that it increases monotonically with n, solid evidence for a morphology dependence of the SHMR. Specifically, our results show that most compact galaxies (n > 6) have a halo mass around 5.5 times larger than disk galaxies (n < 2). Similarly, using the effective radius R e and the rest-frame u − r color, we find that red (large) galaxies reside in halos that are in average 2.6 (2.3) times more massive than those hosting blue (small) galaxies.
