EA: EMPIRE: A new semi-empirical model for the Galaxy-Halo connection – Rodriguez Puebla

In this talk, I will introduce EMPIRE, a new consistent semi-empirical model for the Galaxy-Halo connection. EMPIRE uses the mass assembly of dark matter halos and a battery of observations to constrain star formation histories, contributions from mergers, the intra-halo mass, supermassive black holes, and the half-light and mass-radius growth of star-forming and quiescent galaxies from z~0 to z~10. Results from EMPIRE will be presented, in particular, the newest result on the evolution of the stellar-to-halo mass relation divided into star-forming and quiescent galaxies.
