We present an extensive comparison of models of structure formation with observations, based on linear and quasi-linear theory. We assume a critical matter density, and study both cold dark matter models and cold plus hot dark matter…
Based on General Relativity (GR) we consider two different cosmological scenarios in where reconstruct the energy exchange (Q) between cold dark matter (DM) fluid and dark energy (DE) fluid, which is modelled with a DE varying equation of…
The inability of primordial baryonic density fluctuations, as observed in the cosmic microwave background (CMB), to grow into the present day astronomical structures is well established, under Newtonian and Einsteinian gravity. It is hence…
If the accelerated expansion of the Universe at the present epoch is driven by a dark energy scalar field, there may well be a non-trivial coupling between the dark energy and the cold dark matter (CDM) fluid. Such interactions give rise to…
We investigate how inhomogeneous quintessence models may have a specific signature even in the linear regime of large scale structure formation. The dynamics of the collapse of a dark matter halo is governed by the value or the dynamical…
We study the evolution of baryonic gas in cosmologically growing dark matter halos. To accurately model both the inner and outer regions of the halos, we use a dark matter density profile that transitions smoothly from the NFW profile…
Observational cosmology in the next decade will rely on probes of the distribution of matter in the redshift range between $0<z<3$ to elucidate the nature of dark matter and dark energy. In this redshift range, galaxy formation is known to…
Recently, Valiviita et al. (2008) have reported a large-scale early-time instability in coupled dark energy and dark matter models. We take the same form of energy-momentum exchange and specialise to the case when the interaction rate is…
We study the cosmological consequences of co-decaying dark matter - a recently proposed mechanism for depleting the density of dark matter through the decay of nearly degenerate particles. A generic prediction of this framework is an early…
Tseliakhovich & Hirata recently discovered that higher-order corrections to the cosmological linear-perturbation theory lead to supersonic coherent baryonic flows just after recombination (i.e. z~1020), with rms velocities of ~30 km/s…
Since it became evident that the CDM model for cosmic structure formation predicts smaller power on large scales than observed, many alternatives have been suggested. Among them, the existence of late decaying particle can cure it by…
We interpret the phase structure of hadronic matter in terms of the basic dynamical and geometrical features of hadrons. Increasing the density of constituents of finite spatial extension, by increasing the temperature T or the…
The Eulerian cosmological fluid equations are used to study the nonlinear mode coupling of density fluctuations. We evaluate the second-order power spectrum including all four-point contributions. In the weakly nonlinear regime we find that…
The impact of the streaming between baryons and dark matter on the first structures has been actively explored by recent studies. We investigate how the key results are affected by two popular approximations. One is to implement the…
We propose general conditions for the emergence of Turing patterns in a domain that changes size through homogeneous growth/shrinkage based on the qualitative changes of a potential function. For this part of the work, we consider the most…
A computer code to simulate temporal evolution of overdensities in a one-dimensional Universe is presented for didactic purposes. The formation of large scale structures in this one-dimensional universe can be studied both in matter or…
In this paper we investigate a simple parameterization scheme of the quintessence model given by Wetterich (2004). The crucial parameter of this model is the bending parameter $b$, which is related to the amount of dark energy in the early…
We clarify and extend further the idea developed in \cite{PKLMR,MLPR} that baryonic matter at high density has an emergent "pseudo-conformal symmetry." It is argued that as baryonic density exceeds $n \simeq n_{1/2} \gtrsim 2n_0$, a…
Future large-scale galaxy surveys have the potential to become leading probes for cosmology provided the influence of baryons on the total mass distribution is understood well enough. As hydrodynamical simulations strongly depend on details…
We investigate the evolution of cosmic web since $z=5$ in grid based cosmological hydrodynamical simulations, focusing on the mass and velocity field of both baryonic and cold dark matter. The tidal tensor of density is used as the main…
