The mock samples for high-z spectroscopic galaxy survey

The mock samples for high-z spectroscopic galaxy survey. The dataset includes zCOSMOS, VIPERS and PFS-like galaxy survey's mock samples. The final design of PFS galaxy survey is not determined. So if you want to get the PFS-like mocks, please contact meng.jiacheng@foxmail.com or go to https://lig.astro.tsinghua.edu.cn/astrodata.

The files named as "lu14_zcosmos_mock_index.h5df" are mocks for zCOSMOS survey. The files named as "lu14_w1_mock_index.h5df" and "lu14_w4_mock_index.h5df" are mocks for VIPERS survey, where "w1" and "w4" represent the two fields of VIPERS survey. Index is from 0 to19, representing the 20 mocks with different direction of line-of-sight when constructing mocks. The meanings of the keys in hdf5 files are as follows:

• "ra" and "dec": coordiantes;
• "z_spec" and "z_phot": spectroscopic redshift and photometric redshift;
• "stellar_mass": stellar mass;
• "sfr": star formation rate;
• "halo_mass": halo mass;
• "group_index": ID of the galaxy group for the given galaxy;
• "central_flag": 1 for central galaxy, 0 for satellite galaxy;
• "m_*": apparent magnitude;
• "M_*": absolute magnitude;
• "flag": 0 for no observation, 1 for galaxy having spectroscopic redshift, others for galaxy only having photometric redshift;
• "snap": the snapshot of the model galaxy;
• "model_index": the ID of the model galaxy;
• "box_index": the box ID where the model galaxy are in when constructing mocks.
