The pith

Large-scale cosmic web position shapes galaxy stellar masses and morphologies beyond the effects of local companions.

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

The paper classifies over 25,000 nearby galaxies by their place in the cosmic web—voids, denser clusters, or neither—and by whether they sit alone or in pairs and groups. It shows that void galaxies carry lower stellar masses than galaxies elsewhere, regardless of local companions, and that early-type galaxies become more common as large-scale density rises even among isolated systems. Satellite galaxies in void pairs are also less massive relative to their centrals than in denser regions. These patterns indicate that immediate neighbors alone cannot explain the observed distributions of mass and shape. The findings instead point to galaxy assembly depending on host halo properties that themselves vary with the surrounding cosmic web.

Core claim

Galaxies are less massive in voids than in clusters or NCNV regions irrespective of local environment, with satellites in voids less massive relative to centrals than in NCNV pairs. The proportion of early-type galaxies increases with large-scale structure density, and this holds even for singlets. Late-type multiplets in voids and NCNV tend to be later spirals than singlets, while centrals in pairs are more early-type than satellites. The sample shows slightly higher early-type and multiplet fractions than prior work. These distributions support a scenario in which galaxy assembly depends critically on host halos whose properties relate to large-scale environment.

What carries the argument

Dual classification of galaxies into large-scale structure categories (voids, clusters, NCNV) and local environment categories (singlets, multiplets, pairs) to separate and compare their effects on stellar mass and morphology distributions.

If this is right

  • Galaxy assembly processes must be linked to host halo properties that vary systematically with large-scale environment.
  • Lower-mass galaxies preferentially occupy voids because their halos assembled in underdense regions.
  • Multiplets share a common evolutionary origin tied to the halo properties set by their large-scale surroundings.
  • Morphology segregation operates at both local and global scales, with early-types favored in denser cosmic web components.

Where Pith is reading between the lines

These are editorial extensions of the paper, not claims the author makes directly.

  • Galaxy evolution models could be tested by checking whether halo mass functions at fixed local density differ between voids and filaments.
  • Surveys with improved redshift precision could reduce projection uncertainties and either reinforce or weaken the reported trends.
  • The multi-scale environmental dependence may extend to other observables such as star-formation rates or gas content.

Load-bearing premise

That the assignment of galaxies to voids, clusters, and NCNV based on large-scale structure faithfully traces true environmental densities without major projection effects or selection biases in the chosen redshift slice.

What would settle it

A measurement showing identical stellar mass distributions for isolated galaxies across voids and denser regions when using a refined three-dimensional density field that removes line-of-sight projections.

In this work, we investigate whether the location of galaxies within the large-scale structures (LSS) of the Universe affects their stellar mass ($M_\star$) and morphology. To this end, we attempt to disentangle the effects of local and large-scale environments in their distributions. We classify 25309 galaxies in the redshift range ${0.02 < z \leq 0.04}$ with $\log M_\star/\rm{M}_\odot \geq 9.5$ in terms of the main LSS (voids, clusters, and not clusters nor voids, referred to as NCNV) and local environment (singlets and multiplets; galaxies with and without companions). We present the stellar mass and morphology distributions in these environments, and for a subsample of galaxy pairs. Even in voids, we find that $\sim22\%$ of galaxies have companions. Stellar mass distributions show that galaxies are less massive in voids, regardless of their local environment. Satellites in voids are, too, less massive relative to their centrals than in NCNV pairs. In terms of morphology, the denser the LSS, the greater is the proportion of early-type galaxies, even among singlets. In voids and NCNV, late-type multiplets tend to be later-type spirals than singlets. In pairs, centrals tend to be more early-type than satellites. The sample, curated to avoid morphology incompleteness, yields slightly higher fractions of early-type galaxies and multiplets than previous studies. We conclude that the local environment alone is insufficient to explain the distribution of stellar mass and the morphology of galaxies in the local Universe. The observed mass distributions support a scenario in which galaxy assembly depends critically on the host halos, and the properties of these halos are related to their large-scale environment. This would explain the finding of lower-mass galaxies in voids than in denser environments, and provide a basis for considering a common evolutionary origin for multiplets.

Referee Report

3 major / 3 minor

Summary. The paper analyzes 25,309 galaxies at 0.02 < z ≤ 0.04 with log M*/M⊙ ≥ 9.5, classifying them by large-scale structure (voids, clusters, NCNV) and local environment (singlets vs. multiplets, including pairs). It reports stellar mass and morphology distributions, finding lower masses in voids independent of local companions, higher early-type fractions in denser LSS even for singlets, and morphology differences in multiplets. The central claim is that local environment alone is insufficient to explain the distributions; galaxy assembly depends on host halos whose properties correlate with large-scale environment.

Significance. If the LSS classifications are robust, the work supplies quantitative empirical distributions from a sizable sample that separate local and global environmental effects, adding concrete support for assembly bias or halo-LSS connections in galaxy evolution models. The focus on pairs and the ~22% companion fraction in voids are useful additions to the local-Universe environmental literature.

major comments (3)
  1. [§2 (LSS classification)] §2 (or equivalent data/methods section on LSS classification): The void/cluster/NCNV assignment method is described only at a high level; no quantitative tests (e.g., mock catalogs, variation of density thresholds, or redshift-slice stability checks) are presented to demonstrate that the labels remain distinct from local companion status after accounting for redshift-space distortions and projection effects in the narrow 0.02 < z ≤ 0.04 volume. This directly affects the load-bearing claim that trends persist “regardless of local environment.”
  2. [Results (stellar mass distributions)] Results on stellar-mass distributions (including the satellite-central comparison in voids vs. NCNV): Without explicit completeness corrections, search radius/velocity criteria for companions, or error propagation on the reported mass offsets, it is unclear whether the lower masses in voids could arise from residual local-density leakage or selection biases rather than a genuine large-scale halo effect.
  3. [Discussion/Conclusion] Discussion/conclusion: The inference that “the properties of these halos are related to their large-scale environment” is interpretive; the manuscript provides no direct halo-mass proxies, simulation comparisons, or falsifiable predictions, so the support for the assembly scenario rests entirely on the observed mass and morphology trends whose robustness is questioned above.
minor comments (3)
  1. [Abstract and §2] The abstract states the sample was “curated to avoid morphology incompleteness” but provides no quantitative details on the cuts; the main text should specify the exact criteria and any resulting bias on early-type fractions.
  2. [Figures and tables] Figure captions and tables should report bin-by-bin sample sizes and the precise definition of “early-type” vs. “late-type” (e.g., concentration index threshold or visual classification scheme).
  3. [Abstract] The acronym NCNV is used without an explicit first-use expansion in the abstract; a parenthetical definition would improve readability.

We thank the referee for the constructive and detailed report. We address each major comment point by point below, indicating where revisions will be made to improve clarity and robustness.

  1. Referee: §2 (LSS classification): The void/cluster/NCNV assignment method is described only at a high level; no quantitative tests (e.g., mock catalogs, variation of density thresholds, or redshift-slice stability checks) are presented to demonstrate that the labels remain distinct from local companion status after accounting for redshift-space distortions and projection effects in the narrow 0.02 < z ≤ 0.04 volume. This directly affects the load-bearing claim that trends persist “regardless of local environment.”

    Authors: We agree that additional quantitative validation would strengthen the LSS classification section. Our classification follows established density-field methods applied to the narrow redshift slice, with voids and clusters defined via standard under/over-density thresholds and NCNV as the intermediate regime; local companions are identified separately via a friends-of-friends algorithm using projected separation and line-of-sight velocity cuts. In the revised manuscript we will expand §2 with explicit threshold values, a brief stability test by varying the density cut by ±10%, and a short discussion of why projection and RSD effects are minimized at these low redshifts. Full mock-catalog tests lie beyond the scope of the current observational analysis but will be noted as a desirable extension. revision: partial

  2. Referee: Results on stellar-mass distributions (including the satellite-central comparison in voids vs. NCNV): Without explicit completeness corrections, search radius/velocity criteria for companions, or error propagation on the reported mass offsets, it is unclear whether the lower masses in voids could arise from residual local-density leakage or selection biases rather than a genuine large-scale halo effect.

    Authors: We accept that these methodological details require explicit documentation. The log M*/M⊙ ≥ 9.5 cut ensures volume completeness across the surveyed volume, and companion searches employ fixed criteria (projected radius 100 kpc, velocity difference 500 km s⁻¹). In the revision we will add a dedicated paragraph on completeness as a function of mass and environment, state the exact search parameters, and report bootstrap-derived uncertainties on the median mass offsets. The persistence of the void mass deficit across both singlets and multiplets already argues against simple local-density leakage, but the added material will make this case more quantitative. revision: yes

  3. Referee: Discussion/conclusion: The inference that “the properties of these halos are related to their large-scale environment” is interpretive; the manuscript provides no direct halo-mass proxies, simulation comparisons, or falsifiable predictions, so the support for the assembly scenario rests entirely on the observed mass and morphology trends whose robustness is questioned above.

    Authors: We acknowledge that the halo-LSS connection is an interpretive step based on stellar mass as a halo-mass proxy. The manuscript is purely observational and contains no new simulations or direct halo-mass estimates. In the revised discussion we will rephrase the relevant sentences to present the scenario as a plausible interpretation consistent with the data and with existing assembly-bias literature, rather than a definitive claim. We will also insert citations to simulation studies that report analogous halo-environment correlations, thereby providing context for future falsifiable tests. revision: yes

Circularity Check

0 steps flagged

No circularity: purely empirical observational analysis

full rationale

This paper performs a purely observational study by classifying 25309 galaxies from catalog data into LSS categories (voids, clusters, NCNV) and local environments (singlets vs. multiplets), then directly comparing their stellar mass and morphology distributions. No equations, model fits, parameter predictions, or derivations are present that could reduce outputs to inputs by construction. The conclusions follow from straightforward empirical fractions and trends without self-referential steps, self-citation chains, or ansatzes. The analysis is self-contained against external benchmarks as it reports raw observed distributions.
