We use anisotropic fluid cosmology to describe the present, dark energy-dominated, universe. Similarly to what has been proposed for galactic dynamics, the anisotropic fluid gives an effective description of baryonic matter, dark energy and…
We study the orbits of the various types of galaxies observed in the ESO Nearby Abell Cluster Survey. Galaxies within and outside substructures are considered separately. We use the mass profile we determined from the distribution and…
We add to the lore of spherical, stellar-system models a two-parameter family with an anisotropic velocity dispersion, and a central point mass (``black hole''). The ratio of the tangential to radial dispersions, is constant--and…
Unpolarized Gowdy models are inhomogeneous cosmological models that depend on time and one spatial variable and have complicated nonlinear equations of motion. There are two topologies associated with these models, a three-torus and a…
