DENG, Xin-Fa. The environmental dependence of galaxy age and stellar mass in the redshift region 0_.6 ≤ z ≤ 0_.75. Rev. mex. astron. astrofis [online]. 2019, vol.55, n.2, pp.185-191.  Epub Nov 25, 2020. ISSN 0185-1101.  https://doi.org/10.22201/ia.01851101p.2019.55.02.06.

In this work, I construct a LRG (Luminous Red Galaxy) sample with redshifts 0.6 ≤ z ≤ 0.75 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 15 (SDSS DR15), which contains 184172 CMASS LRGs and 27158 eBOSS LRGs, and examine the environmental dependence of galaxy age and stellar mass in this galaxy sample. I divide this LRG sample into subsamples with a redshift binning size of ∆z = 0.01, and analyze the environmental dependence of galaxy age and stellar mass for these subsamples in each redshift bin. Overall, galaxy age and stellar mass in the LRG sample with redshift 0.6 ≤ z ≤ 0.75 are very weakly correlated with the local environment, which shows that minimal environmental dependence of galaxy parameters can continue to larger redshifts.
