ABSTRACT In this work, we combine size and stellar mass measurements from the Sloan Digital Sky Server (SDSS) with the group finder algorithm of Rodriguez & Merchán in order to determine the stellar and halo mass–size relations of central and satellite galaxies separately. We show that, while ce...
