3.3.1.6  :  DeLucia2006a

This table contains the result of an L-Galaxies run on the milli-Millennium merger trees with the same parameters as used in the full Millennium run described in De Lucia and Blaizot 2006.
Note that galaxies without stars have been assigned the value 99 for all their magnitudes.
