摘要
With galaxy groups constructed from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), we analyse the expected galaxy-galaxy lensing signals around satellite galaxies residing in different host haloes and located at different halo-centric distances. We use a Markov chain Monte Carlo method to explore the potential constraints on the mass and density profile of subhaloes associated with satellite galaxies from SDSS-like surveys and surveys similar to the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). Our results show that for SDSS-like surveys, we can only set a loose constraint on the mean mass of subhaloes. With LSST-like surveys, however, both the mean mass and the density profile of subhaloes can be well constrained.
