An empirical test of the halo model P gal (k) = P gal (1h) (k) + P gal (2h) (k) The 1-halo term depends on the halo mass function, the halo occupation number the radial distribution of the galaxies within the halo The 2-halo also term depends on the above, roughly P gal (2h) (k)= b gal 2 P dm (lin) (k) Each of the three terms can actually be measured directly from e.g 2dFGRS: Is the model satisfied for all, blue and red galaxies?
