do_galaxies_die

Overview

This repository comprises all the relevant scripts necessary to reproduce the results presented in "Do galaxies die? Different views from simulations and observations in the Local Universe".

Installation

git clone https://github.com/PabloCorcho/do_galaxies_die
cd do_galaxies_die

Run

python compute_simus_planes.py

This code will compute the probability maps corresponding to each simulation included in simu_data. 1.7 Gb of memory will be necessary to store the output results.

Then run

python make_all_figures.py

This code will generate all the figures presented in Corcho et al. 2021

Individual figures

If you want to replot a single figure, you can directly run the following scripts:

• Figs. 1 & 2:

python mk_fig_simus_cond_planes.py

• Figs. 3 & 8:

python mk_fig_detection.py

• Fig. 4:

python mk_fig_sdss_uncertainties.py
python mk_fig_gama_uncertainties.py

• Figs. 5 & 6:

python mk_TNG_sfrs_death_times.py

• Fig. 7:

python mk_fig_quenched_fractions.py

System Requirements

Hardware requirements

These scripts only require a standard computer with enough RAM to support the in-memory operations.

Software requirements

All scripts have been tested on the following systems:

• Linux: Ubuntu 20.04

Python dependencies

os
numpy
scipy
