The dependence of clustering on galaxy properties

We use a sample of similar to 200 000 galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) with 0.01 5 h(-1) Mpc). This large-scale clustering dependence is not seen for the parameters C or mu*. On small scales ( 1.5. In contrast, the dependence of the amplitude of wp(r(p)) on concentration on scales less than 1 h(-1) Mpc is strongest for disc-dominated galaxies with C < 2.6. This demonstrates that different processes are required to explain environmental trends in the structure and in the star formation history of galaxies.
