(Abridged) The analysis of the rotation curves (RCs) of spiral galaxies provides an efficient diagnostic for studying the properties of dark matter halos and their relations with the baryonic material. We have modeled the RCs of galaxies…
We use an array of high-resolution N-body simulations to determine the mass function of dark matter haloes at redshifts 10-30. We develop a new method for compensating for the effects of finite simulation volume that allows us to find an…
Mass models of 15 nearby dwarf and spiral galaxies are presented. The galaxies are selected to be homogeneous in terms of the method used to determine their distances, the sampling of their rotation curves (RCs) and the mass-to-light ratio…
In this paper, we perform a global constraint on the Ricci dark energy model with both the flat case and the non-flat case, using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method and the combined observational data from the cluster X-ray gas mass…
HI intensity mapping data traces the large-scale structure matter distribution using the integrated emission of neutral hydrogen gas (HI). The cross-correlation of the intensity maps with optical galaxy surveys can mitigate foreground and…
We explore the connection between halo concentration and the dark matter power spectrum using the halo model. We fit halo model parameters to non-linear power spectra over a large range of cosmological models. We find that the non-linear…

We present a comprehensive analysis of the observed Stellar-to-Halo mass relationship (SHMR) spanning redshifts from 0.2 to 4.5. This was enabled through galaxy clustering and abundance measurements from two large (effective area ~ 1.61…

Following Bi & Davidsen (1997), we perform one dimensional semi analytic simulations along the lines of sight to model the intergalactic medium (IGM). Since this procedure is computationally efficient in probing the parameter space -- and…

The hybrid Ricci scalar $R_{\mu\nu}\eta^{\mu\nu}$ formed from a Robertson-Walker derived Ricci tensor and a distinct flat space metric becomes a dark, pseudo-isothermal density under asymptotic constraint. While extension of this constraint…

Analytic derivations of the correlation function and the column density distribution for neutral hydrogen in the IGM are presented, assuming that the non-linear baryonic mass density distribution in the IGM is lognormal. This ansatz was…
The 21cm emission line from neutral hydrogen (HI) contained within galaxies provides a way to make accurate spectroscopic redshift determinations in the radio part of the spectrum. Large radio arrays such as SKA-MID are coming online that…
We investigate a model for the high-ionization state gas associated with observed damped Lyman-alpha systems, based on a semi-analytic model of galaxy formation set within the paradigm of hierarchical structure formation. In our model, the…
We measure the signal of secondary halo bias as a function of a variety of intrinsic and environmental halo properties, and characterize its statistical significance as a function of cosmological redshift. Using fixed and paired $N$-body…
We analyse modelling techniques for the large-scale structure formed in scalar-tensor theories of constant Brans-Dicke parameter which match the concordance model background expansion history and produce a chameleon suppression of the…
We illustrate how recently improved low-redshift cosmological measurements can tighten constraints on neutrino properties. In particular we examine the impact of the assumed cosmological model on the constraints. We first consider the new…
We forecast astrophysical and cosmological parameter constraints from synergies between 21 cm intensity mapping and wide field optical galaxy surveys (both spectroscopic and photometric) over $z \sim 0-3$. We focus on the following survey…
