making "all the plots": key plots for comparison to observations

[rgbower]

This is the list of possible plots (from my board). I will circulate to Rob to see what's missing. First step is to make the plot from the simulation. Second step is to add observational data.

• [x] Stellar mass function [done] (all galaxies)
• [x] stellar mass - halo mass. [done] (distinguish centrals and satellites, dsc)
• [x] stellar radius vs stellar mass [done] (dsc)
• [x] black hole mass vs stellar mass (dsc)
• [x] specific star formation rate vs stellar mass (needs care handling zero sfr galaxies) (dsc)
• [x] gas mass (all, cool, star forming) vs stellar mass. (within aperture 30 or 100 kpc) (dsc)
• [x] stellar metallicity vs stellar mass (within aperture 30) (dsc)
• [x] gas metallicity vs stellar mass (within aperture 30, all, cool or sf gas) (dsc)
• [x] stellar abundance ratio (Mg/Fe) vs stellar mass (dsc)
• [x] mean stellar age vs stellar mass (dsc)
• [x] R50 gas (all, cool, sf) vs stellar mass within 100 kpc aperture. (dsc)

Additional global plots

• [x] density - temperature diagram. (2d histogram)
• [x] stellar birth density and metal abundance (2d histogram)
• [x] star formation history (total, of velocity raptor galaxies > 10^9 Msol) vs redshift

Extra from Rob:

• [x] Global stellar mass density vs. time or redshift
• [x] Star formation rate function (NB: Eagle was always poor for this)
• [x] SMF split by active and passive (we have Schechter fits from Ivan Baldry)
• [x] HI mass function (I argued for this at pre-Virgo, again Eagle always struggled with this)
• [x] Passive fractions
• [x] Global SNIa rate
• [ ] Hot gas relations for groups (f_gas vs kT probably the most important)

We can of course also consider new plots that were missing also:

• [ ] Colour-magnitude

Plus:

I always found it instructive to include a cpu timing plot on each webpage, we referred back to these over and over when developing/calibrating.
