In this work, we aim at investigating the morphology evolution of Milky Way mass-like dark matter haloes selected from the CIELO and IllustrisTNG Projects. The connection between halo shapes and their environment has been studied in…
We investigate the baryon fraction in dark matter haloes formed in non-radiative gas-dynamical simulations of the LambdaCDM cosmogony. By combining a realisation of the Millennium Simulation (Springel et al.) with a simulation of a smaller…
Violent relaxation during the collapse of a galaxy halo is known to be incomplete in realistic cases such as cosmological infall or mergers. We adopt a physical picture of strong but short lived interactions between potential fluctuations…
The structural and dynamic properties of the dark matter halos, though an important ingredient in understanding large-scale structure formation, require more conservative particle resolution than those required by halo mass alone in a…
Recent observations made using the James Webb Space Telescope have identified a number of high-redshift galaxies that are unexpectedly luminous. In light of this, it is clear that a more detailed understanding of the high redshift,…
We report on results of N-body simulations aimed at testing the hypothesis that galaxies in X-ray emitting (i.e., virialized) Compact Groups are not tidally stripped when they are embedded in a common, massive, quiescent dark matter halo.…
We investigate how the hydrostatic suppression of baryonic accretion affects the growth rate of dark matter halos during the Epoch of Reionization. By comparing halo properties in a simplistic hydrodynamic simulation in which gas only cools…
We use seven high-resolution $N$-body simulations to study the correlations among different halo properties (assembly time, spin, shape and substructure), and how these halo properties are correlated with the large-scale environment in…
We show that dark matter haloes, in n--body simulations, have a boundary layer (BL) with precise features. In particular, it encloses all dynamically stable mass while, outside it, dynamical stability is lost soon. Particles can pass…
We investigate the internal structure of cold dark matter halos using high resolution N-body simulations. As the mass and force resolution are increased, halo density profiles become steeper, asymptoting to a slope of $\sim -4/3$ in the…
The formation and structure of dark matter halos is studied by constrained simulations. A series of experiments of the formation of a 10^12 Msun/h halo is designed to study the dependence of the density profile on its merging history. We…
We study the properties of distinct dark matter halos (i.e., those that are not subhalos) that have a final virial mass $M_{\mathrm{vir}}$ at $z = 0$ less than their peak mass ($M_{\mathrm{peak}}$) in the Bolshoi-Planck cosmological…
Motivated by the recent direct detection of cosmological gas infall, we develop an analytical model for calculating the mean density profile around an initial overdensity that later forms a dark matter halo. We account for the problem of…
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…
We examine the effects of mass resolution and force softening on the density profiles of cold dark matter halos that form within cosmological N-body simulations. As we increase the mass and force resolution, we resolve progenitor halos that…
Recent JWST observations claim the existence of a significant fraction of bars in the kinematically hotter and thicker disk at high redshift Universe. These observations challenge the current understanding of disk stability in galaxies…
We examine the properties of dark matter halos within a rich galaxy cluster using a high resolution simulation that captures the cosmological context of a cold dark matter universe. The mass and force resolution permit the resolution of 150…
The abundance of galaxy clusters can constrain both the geometry and growth of structure in our Universe. However, this probe could be significantly complicated by recent claims of nonuniversality -- non-trivial dependences with respect to…
The evolution of the virial overdensity $\Delta_{\rm vir}$ for $\Lambda$CDM and seven dynamical dark-energy models is investigated in the extended spherical collapse model (SCM). Here the virialization process is naturally achieved by…
We investigate the formation of virialized halos due to the gravitational collapse of collisionless matter using high-resolution N-body simulations. A variety of formation scenarios are studied, ranging from hierarchical clustering to…
