The table stores all the friend-of-friends (FOF) groups extracted from the raw output from the milli-Millennium
simulation. These FOF groups form the basis that the SUBFIND algorithm uses to detect the subhalos.
column | type | UCD | unit | description |
fofId |
long |
meta.id;meta.main |
|
The id of this FOF group, unique within the full simulation.
|
snapNum |
int |
time |
|
The snapshot number where this FOF group was identified.
This column corresponds to the snapnum column in
the Snapshots table in MField.
|
redshift |
float |
time |
|
The redshift of the snapshot to which this halo belongs.
|
np |
int |
meta.number |
|
Number of simulation particles in this FOF group.
|
numSubGroups |
int |
meta.number |
|
The number of sub halos found in this FOF group with the SUBFIND algorithm.
These subhalos are stord in the FofSubHalo table in this same database.
|
firstSubHaloId |
long |
|
meta.id.assoc |
The identifier of the most massive subhalo in this FOF group.
NB This is not equivalent to the fofID in millimil..DeLucia2006a or the firstHaloInFOFGroupId in millimil..MPAHalo! |

|
r_crit200 |
float |
phys.mass |
Mpc/h |
The (comoving) radius within which the FOF group has an overdensity 200 times the critical density of the simulation.
|
m_tophat200 |
float |
phys.mass |
1010 Msun/h |
The mass within the radius where the FOF group has an overdensity corresponding to the value at virialisation in the top-hat collapse model for this cosmology.
|
r_tophat200 |
float |
phys.mass |
Mpc/h |
The (comoving) radius within which the FOF group has an overdensity corresponding to the value at virialisation in the top-hat collapse model for this cosmology.
