The properties of a system of charged particles on a 2D lattice, subject to an anisotropic Jahn-Teller-type interaction and 3D Coulomb repulsion are investigated. In the mean-field approximation without Coulomb interaction, the system…
The concept of attractors, well-known in classical mechanics, proved to be very productive in supergravity, in the theory of black holes and inflationary cosmology. We start with attractors in supersymmetric black holes and discuss also…
This paper is devoted to the quantitative study of the attractive velocity of generalized attractors for infinite-dimensional dynamical systems. We introduce the notion of~$\varphi$-attractor whose attractive speed is characterized by a…
In cosmology it has become usual to introduce new entities as dark matter and dark energy in order to explain otherwise unexplained observational facts. Here, we propose a different approach treating spacetime as a continuum endowed with…
We investigate the properties of hybrid gravitational/hydrodynamical simulations, examining both the numerics and the general physical properties of gravitationally driven, hierarchical collapse in a mixed baryonic/dark matter fluid. We…
A simple way to accommodate dark matter is to postulate the existence of a hidden sector. That is, a set of new particles and forces interacting with the known particles predominantly via gravity. In general this leads to a large set of…
The density of dark matter near the Sun is important for experiments hunting for dark matter particles in the laboratory, and for constraining the local shape of the Milky Way's dark matter halo. Estimates to date have typically assumed…
The collapse of non-collisional dark matter and the formation of pancake structures in the Universe are investigated approximately. Collapse is described by a system of ordinary differential equations, in the model of a uniformly rotating,…
The precision era of multi-messenger astronomy, together with modern astrophysical, cosmological, and gravitational wave observations, increasingly points toward the existence of a ``dark" sector that cannot be explained within the…
Homogeneous cosmological solutions are obtained in five dimensional space time assuming equations of state $ p = k\rho $ and $ p_{5}= \gamma\rho$ where p is the isotropic 3 - pressure and $p_{5}$, that for the fifth dimension. Using…
If the spacetime metric has anisotropic spatial curvature, one can afford to expand the universe isotropically, provided that the energy-momentum tensor satisfy a certain con- straint. This leads to the so-called shear-free metrics, which…
Conditions at which a quasi-one-dimensional (1D) electron system can be considered as a quantum liquid of impenetrable charged particles are theoretically analyzed. In the presence of an inert, neutralizing background, a motion of…
Axions are candidates for dark matter in the universe.We develop an accurate Boltzmann code to calculate the linear growth of the plasma. As an interesting example, we investigate a mixed dark matter model consisting of cold dark matter…
We obtain a new, exact, solution of the Einstein's equation in higher dimensions. The source is given by a static spherically symmetric, Gaussian distribution of mass and charge. De-localization of mass and charge is due to the presence of…
We propose a cosmological model that describes isotropic expansion of inhomogeneous universe. The energy-momentum tensor that creates the spatial inhomogeneity may not affect the uniform expansion scaling factor $a(t)$ in the FLRW-like…
Several dark matter models allow for the intriguing possibility of exotic compact object formation. These objects might have unique characteristics that set them apart from their baryonic counterparts. Furthermore, gravitational wave…
We consider a generic cosmological model which allows for non-gravitational direct couplings between dark matter and dark energy. The distinguishing cosmological features of these couplings can be probed by current cosmological…
It is by now well established that non-relativistic matter in the Universe is dominated by dark matter, the origin and nature of which still remains a mystery. Although the collisionless dark matter paradigm works very well at large…
We study a phenomenological dark matter model described as a collisionless relativistic kinetic gas in a spatially flat Friedmann-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker universe. After normalization to the observed present-day dark matter abundance,…
If the cosmic dark matter consists of weakly-interacting massive particles, these particles should be produced in reactions at the next generation of high-energy accelerators. Measurements at these accelerators can then be used to determine…
