Conditional HI mass functions and the HI-to-halo mass relation in the local Universe

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Xiao Li, Cheng Li, H. J. Mo, Ting Xiao, Jing Wang | Summary: We present a new HI mass estimator which relates the HI-to-stellar mass ratio to four galaxy properties: stellar surface mass density, color index $u-r$, stellar mass and concentration index, with the scatter of individual […]
