 Stellar-to-halo mass ratio

The stellar-to-halo mass ratio compares a galaxy's galactic stellar mass with its host's total halo mass. In a simple baryon-conversion model it is ${ϵ}_{\ast }=f_b{f}_{\ast }$. Observational comparisons must distinguish this total-mass ratio from the fraction of baryons converted, and must specify whether central, satellite or all stellar populations are included.
