The dependence on environment of Cold Dark Matter Halo properties
  High-resolution LCDM cosmological N-body simulations are used to study the properties of galaxy-size dark halos in different environments (cluster, void, and "field"). Halos in clusters and their surroundings have a median spin parameter ~1.3 times lower, and tend to be more spherical and to have less aligned internal angular momentum than halos in voids and the field. For halos in clusters the concentration parameters decrease on average with mass with a slope of ~0.1; for halos in voids these concentrations do not change with mass. For masses <5 10^11 M_sh^-1, halos in clusters are on average ~30-40% more concentrated and have ~2 times higher central densities than halos in voids. When comparing only parent halos, the differences are less pronounced but they are still significant. The Vmax-and Vrms-mass relations are shallower and more scattered for halos in clusters than in voids, and for a given Vmax or Vrms, the mass is smaller at z=1 than at z=0 in all the environments. At z=1, the differences in the halo properties with environment almost dissapear, suggesting this that the differences were stablished mainly after z~1. The halos in clusters undergo more dramatic changes than those in the field or the voids. The differences with environment are owing to (i) the dependence of halo formation time on environment, and (ii) local effects as tidal stripping and the tumultuos histories that halos suffer in high-density regions. We calculate seminumerical models of disk galaxy evolution in halos with the properties found for the different environments. For a given disk mass, the galaxy disks have higher surface density, larger Vd,max and secular bulge-to-disk ratio, lower gas fraction, and are redder as one goes from cluster to void environments, in rough agreement with observations.
