The package holds the codes for the paper ***Unexpected clustering pattern in dwarf galaxies challenges formation models*** (Ziwen Zhang et al. [Nature 2025, 642, 47-52](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-08965-5); [arXiv:2504.03305](https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.03305)).

## What did we discover in this work?

A surprising pattern of spatial distribution was discovered in dwarf galaxies that diffuse ones cluster more strongly than compact ones - reversing the trends seen in massive galaxies. This challenges the structure formation models within the standard cold-dark-matter cosmology, calling for revisions for the understanding of the assembly of visible- and dark-matter structures.

## Installation

To install the package, run:
```bash
pip install dwarf-assembly-bias
```
Alternatively, you can clone the repository and install the package locally via `pip install -e /path/to/the/repo`.

## Resources for the paper

### Code samples

Code samples are organized as individual programs, scripts or jupyter-notebooks,
each for a specific procedure in producing the results in the paper.
All code samples are put under [docs/code_samples/](docs/code_samples):
- [dwarf_sample.ipynb](docs/code_samples/dwarf_sample.ipynb): loading and filtering the observed dwarf galaxy sample.
- [cal_2pccf/](docs/code_samples/cal_2pccf/): program for two-point cross-correlation function (2PCCF) in observation.
- [cov_fit.py](docs/code_samples/cov_fit.py), [fit_bias.py](docs/code_samples/fit_bias.py): measuring the covariance matrix and fitting the relative bias.
- [Mhalo.py](docs/code_samples/Mhalo.py): HI-based halo mass estimation by assuming Burkert profile.
- [galaxy_web_cross.py](docs/code_samples/galaxy_web_cross.py): program for galaxy-cosmic web (knots, filaments, sheets and voids) 2PCCFs, for a sample of galaxies with given real-space locations. [galaxy_web_cross_from_obs_sample.py](docs/code_samples/galaxy_web_cross_from_obs_sample.py): is similar but takes input galaxies in redshift-space and make a correction for the redshift-space distortion before calculating the 2PCCFs.
- [sidm_given_baryon.py](docs/code_samples/sidm_given_baryon.py): calculating the SIDM density profile given a CDM halo and a baryon profile.
- [theory.ipynb](docs/code_samples/theory.ipynb): theoretical interpretations (galaxy-galaxy 2PCCF in theory, abundance matching, model of self-interaction dark matter).

***Data for running the codes***: In order to run the code samples, please download the data
at [Quark cloud](https://pan.quark.cn/s/0fd2a303e03c), and put them under `docs/code_samples/data/`.

### Data for the figures

Here we provide all the data sheets, and scripts to load the data sheets and generate the figures exactly as those presented in the paper. All of these are held under [docs/figures/](docs/figures/). Specifically,
- [data/](docs/figures/data/): Excel data sheets, one for each Figure or Extended Data Figure.
- [plots_observation.py](docs/figures/plots_observation.py): scripts to generate observational figures (Fig. 1 and Extended Data Figs. 1-7).
- [plots_theory.ipynb](docs/figures/plots_theory.ipynb): scripts to generate theoretical figures (Figs. 2, 3, 4 and Extended Data Fig. 8).

## Details of this work

### Sample construction

The samples and subsamples of observed dwarf galaxies are briefly described in the paper (Methods: "The sample of dwarf galaxies"). In more detail, the parent sample of galaxies and catalog of galaxy groups can be obtained at [this site](https://gax.sjtu.edu.cn/data/Group.html). 
Note that we used the `model` magnitudes and colors, and the corresponding version of group catalog `modelC` and galaxy catalog `imodelC_1` (with a selection `r <= 17.72` already applied). From the galaxy catalog, the most massive galaxy in each group is taken as the central galaxy. `R_50` and `Sersic index` are supplied in an additional `galaxy magnitudes` table at the same site. Note that R_50 is in the unit of pixel, and should be converted into arcsec by `1 pixel = 0.396 arcsec`.
MPA-JHU stellar mass is obtained from [their site](https://wwwmpa.mpa-garching.mpg.de/SDSS/DR7/) (file `totlgm_dr7_v5_2b.fit`; the MEDIAN field).

Here we also provide the sample of dwarf galaxies used in this paper (see the above code samples `dwarf_sample.ipynb` for the usage).

To measure the 2PCCF from observation, two additional sets of samples are constructed:
- **The reference sample**, used as field tracers, is a magnitude-limited sample constructed from the NYU-VAGC sample following the following selection criteria described in 
Sec. 2.1 of [Lixin Wang et al. 2019](https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2019MNRAS.483.1452W): the $r$-band Petrosian apparent magnitude $r<17.6$; the $r$-band Petrosian absolute magnitude in $[-24, -16]$; the redshift $0.01 < z < 0.2$. 
- **The random samples**, used to account for the observational selection effects,
is obtained according to the method described in Sec. 3.1 of [Cheng Li et al. 2006](https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2006MNRAS.368...21L) as follows. We generated ten duplicates for each galaxy in the reference sample and randomly place them in the SDSS survey area. All other properties, including stellar mass and redshift of the duplicates, 
are the same as those of the parent galaxy. The random sample thus has the same survey geometry, the same distributions of galaxy properties and redshift, as the reference sample.
