We extend a previous work by Reischke et al., 2016 by studying the effects of tidal shear on clustering dark energy models within the framework of the extended spherical collapse model and using the Zel'dovich approximation. As in previous…
There is now strong evidence that the current energy density of the Universe is dominated by dark energy with an equation of state w<-1/3, which is causing accelerated expansion. The build-up of structure within such Universes is subject to…
In spherical symmetry compelling numerical evidence suggests that in general relativity solutions near the threshold of black hole formation exhibit critical behavior. One aspect of this is that threshold solutions themselves are…

We study the spherical collapse model in the presence of quintessence with negligible speed of sound. This case is particularly motivated for w<-1 as it is required by stability. As pressure gradients are negligible, quintessence follows…
We investigate numerically spherically symmetric collapse of a scalar field in the semi-classical approximation. We first verify that our code reproduces the critical phenomena (the Choptuik effect) in the classical limit and black hole…

The influence of the shear stress and angular momentum on the nonlinear spherical collapse model is discussed in the framework of the Einstein-de Sitter (EdS) and $\Lambda$CDM models. By assuming that the vacuum component is not clustering…
We study the cosmic velocity-density relation using the spherical collapse model (SCM) as a proxy to non-linear dynamics. Although the dependence of this relation on cosmological parameters is known to be weak, we retain the density…

Employing the spherical collapse (SC) formalism, we investigate the linear evolution of the matter over-density for energy-momentum-squared gravity (EMSG), which in practical phenomenological terms, one may imagine as an extension of the…
Consider any 1-parameter family of initial data such that data with parameter value p > p* form black holes, and data with p < p* do not. As p -> p* from above ("critical collapse"), the black hole mass scales as M ~ (p-p*)^gamma, where the…
We study the spherical collapse model (SCM) in the framework of spatially flat power law $f(T) \propto (-T)^{b}$ gravity model. We find that the linear and non-linear growth of spherical overdensities of this particular $f(T)$ model are…
