Scientific paper

We investigate the clustering properties of high-redshift galaxies within three competing scenarios for assigning luminous galaxies to dark matter halos from N-body simulations: a one galaxy per massive halo model, a quiescent star formation model, and a collisional starburst model. We compare these models to observations of Lyman-Break galaxies at z~3$ With current data and the simple statistic used here, one cannot rule out any of these models, but we see potential for finding distinguishing features using statistics that are sensitive to the tails of the distribution, and statistics based on the number of multiple galaxies per halo, which we explore in an ongoing study.
