Abstract

The nonlinear collapse for viscous generalized Chaplygin gas Model (VGCG) was analyzed in the framework of spherical top-hat collapse. As the VGCG and baryons are essential to form the large scale structure, we focused on their nonlinear collapse in this paper. We discussed the influence of model parameters α\alpha and ζ0\zeta_{0} on the spherical collapse by varying their values and compare with ΛCDM\Lambda CDM. The results show that, for the VGCG model, smaller ζ0\zeta_{0} and larger α\alpha make the structure formation earlier and faster, and the collapse curves of VGCG model is almost distinguished with the ΛCDM\Lambda CDM model when the model parameter α\alpha is less than 10210^{-2}.
