Reliable analytical modeling of the non-linear power spectrum (PS) of matter perturbations is among the chief pre-requisites for cosmological analyses from the largest sky surveys. This is especially true for the models that extend the…

We use a set of N-body simulations employing a modified gravity (MG) model with Vainshtein screening to study matter and halo hierarchical clustering. As test-case scenarios we consider two normal branch Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (nDGP)…

We perform high resolution N-body simulations for f(R) gravity based on a self-adaptive particle- mesh code MLAPM. The Chameleon mechanism that recovers General Relativity on small scales is fully taken into account by self-consistently…
