We study the merging history of dark matter haloes that end up in rich clusters, using N-body simulations of a scale-free universe. We compare the predictions of the extended Press & Schechter (PS) formalism (Bond et al. 1991; Bower 1991;…
High-resolution N-body simulations of hierarchical clustering in a wide variety of cosmogonies show that the density profiles of dark matter halos are universal, with low mass halos being denser than their more massive counterparts. This…

Cosmic voids are known as underdense substructures of the cosmic web that cover a large volume of the Universe. It is known that cosmic voids contain a small number of dark matter halos, so the existence of primordial black holes (PBHs) in…
