The halo occupation distribution (HOD) describes the bias between galaxies and dark matter by specifying (a) the probability P(N|M) that a halo of virial mass M contains N galaxies of a particular class and (b) the relative distributions of…

Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) is a model giving the average number of galaxies in a dark matter halo, function of its mass and other intrinsic properties, like distance from halo center, luminosity and redshift of its constituting…
