Splashback radius
This module contains a collection of routines related to the splashback radius.
Basics
The splashback radius, \(R_{\rm sp}\), corresponds to the apocenter of particles on their first orbit after falling into a halo. By analogy with the spherical collapse model, this radius represents a physically motivated definition of the halo boundary because it separates infalling from orbiting material. The splashback mass, \(M_{\rm sp}\), is defined as the mass within \(R_{\rm sp}\).
In practice, not all particles reach apocenter at the same radius, and the resulting drop in the density profile is less sharp than in spherical models. As a result, there are several different definitions of the splashback radius, for example the radius where the logarithmic slope of the density profile is steepest, or definitions derived from the actual distribution of particle apocenters. For more information, please see the papers that first suggested the splashback radius, namely Diemer & Kravtsov 2014, Adhikari et al. 2014, and More et al. 2015, as well as any of the model papers listed below.
This module implements a number of theoretical models and fitting functions for the splashback
radius, splashback mass, the scatter in those quantities, and the mass accretion rate. The models
can be evaluated using the generalized function splashbackModel()
as well as a convenient
wrapper, splashbackRadius()
which evaluates \(R_{\rm sp}\) given a spherical overdensity
mass. The splashback models can return a number of different quantities, identified by the
following shorthand:
RspR200m
, the splashback radius in units of \(R_{\rm 200m}\)MspM200m
, the splashback mass in units of \(M_{\rm 200m}\)Deltasp
, the enclosed overdensity wrt. the mean density of the universe, \(\Delta_{\rm sp} = M_{\rm sp} / (4 \pi R_{\rm sp}^3 / 3) / \rho_{\rm m}\)RspR200m-1s
, the 68% scatter in \(R_{\rm sp}/R_{\rm 200m}\) in dexMspM200m-1s
, the 68% scatter in \(M_{\rm sp}/M_{\rm 200m}\) in dexDeltasp-1s
, the 68% scatter in \(\Delta_{\rm sp}\) in dex
Not all models can return all of these quantities (see table below). Moreover, depending on the model the quantities can be computed as a function of different input variables, namely
Gamma
, the mass accretion rate \(\Gamma\)nu200m
, the peak height corresponding to \(M_{\rm 200m}\) (seepeakHeight()
)z
, the redshift
Note that the mass accretion rate is defined in different ways depending on which model is used. In theoretical models, \(\Gamma\) typically stands for the instantaneous accretion rate \(s = d \log(M) / d \log(a)\). In other models, it means the mass accretion rate measured over either a fixed time interval as in Diemer & Kravtsov 2014, or measured over a dynamical time. Please consult the model papers for details. The following code example shows how to calculate \(R_{\rm sp}/R_{\rm 200m}\) when only the mass of a halo is known:
from colossus.lss import peaks
from colossus.halo import splashback
M200m = 1E12
z = 0.5
nu200m = peaks.peakHeight(M200m, z)
RspR200m, mask = splashback.splashbackModel('RspR200m', nu200m = nu200m, z = z)
If the mass accretion rate is known, that constraint can also be used:
Gamma = 1.1
RspR200m, mask = splashback.splashbackModel('RspR200m', Gamma = Gamma, nu200m = nu200m, z = z)
All functions take numpy arrays as well as float values, though with certain restrictions (see
below). The mask
return variable indicates whether the chosen model could be evaluated given
the input parameters. If not (e.g., because the redshift of peak height were outside a model’s
range), mask
(or certain elements of it) will be False and the corresponding elements of
RspR200m
will be missing. Please see the Tutorials for more extensive code examples.

The individual functions for these models are documented towards the bottom of this page. Note that
the diemer20
model includes a fitting function for the mass accretion rate as a function of
peak height and redshift.
Note that, in principle, the user can overwrite the model properties and limitations stored in
the models
dictionary, for example to evaluate a model outside of the range of parameters
where it was calibrated. However, there is no guarantee that the results will be correct.

the model is capable of processing. Additionally, thedepends_on
field lists the quantities the model depends on. If, for example, z is among these quantities, then the redshift needs to be passed to thesplashbackModel()
function.This object does not contain a function pointer to the model functions because those functions do not work in a uniform way, necessitating a somewhat more complex decision tree when evaluating them.

entry for each model.
- halo.splashback.splashbackModel(q_out, Gamma=None, nu200m=None, z=None, model='diemer20', statistic='median', rspdef=None)
The splashback radius, mass, and scatter.
Depending on the model, this function can return quantities such as \(R_{sp} / R_{\rm 200m}\), \(M_{\rm sp} / M_{\rm 200m}\), the splashback overdensity, or the scatter in these quantities (see the table of models above). The primary input variable can be mass or accretion rate, and other quantities such as redshift may be required depending on which model is chosen (see the properties listed in
models
for details).The function returns only valid predictions for the desired quantity. If any of the parameters lie outside the range of validity of the chosen model, no output is returned for that input, as indicated by the returned boolean mask. No warning is output in such cases unless there is no valid output for any input.
- Parameters

The definition of the splashback radius. This parameter is ignored by most models, but used by the
diemer17
anddiemer20
models to distinguish themean
of the apocenter distribution or higher percentiles (e.g.percentile75
). The function also accepts the newer notation used in the SPARTA code, namelysp-apr-mn
for the mean andsp-apr-p75
and so on for percentiles. For models that use this parameter (diemer17
anddiemer20
), it must be given, otherwise the function throws an error. The acceptable range of percentiles is between 50 and 90.

orM
, or beNone
in which case the concentration is computed automatically.- Gamma: array_like
The mass accretion rate that can be optionally passed to the splashback model. If this field is set, the splashback model is evaluated with Gamma as the primary input, otherwise peak height is the primary input. If

\(M_{\rm sp}\) in \(M_{\odot}/h\)

A boolean mask of the same dimensions as
R
orM
, indicating whether a valid input was returned for each input. Note that only the valid outputs are returned, meaning Rsp and Msp can have fewer items than mask.

Mass accretion rate; can be a number or a numpy array. This model was calibrated using \(\Gamma_{\rm dyn}\).
- nu200m: array_like
The peak height as computed from \(M_{\rm 200m}\); can be a number or a numpy array with the same dimensions as
Gamma
.- z: float
Redshift
- rspdef: str
The definition of the splashback radius. This parameter distinguishes the
mean
of the apocenter distribution or higher percentiles (e.g.percentile75
). The function also accepts the newer notation used in the SPARTA code, namelysp-apr-mn
for the mean andsp-apr-p75
and so on for percentiles, which is preferred.
- Returns
- scatter: array_like
Scatter in \(M_{\rm sp}/M_{\rm 200m}\), has the same dimensions as
Gamma
.
- halo.splashback.modelDiemer17Gamma(nu200m, z)
\(\Gamma_{\rm dyn}\) as a function of peak height for the Diemer+2017 model.
A fit to the median accretion rate of halos as a function of peak height and redshift. This accretion rate can be used as a guess when the real accretion rate of halos is not known.
- Parameters
