We study the environmental dependence of the formation epoch of dark matter haloes in the Millennium Simulation: a ten billion particle N-body simulation of standard LambdaCDM cosmology. A sensitive test of this dependence - the marked…
I propose a modification of the spherical infall model for the evolution of density fluctuations with initially Gaussian probability distribution and scale-free power spectra in Einstein-de Sitter universe as developed by Hoffman & Shaham.…
We present a new theory for the hierarchical clustering of dark matter (DM) halos based on stochastic differential equations, that constitutes a change of perspective with respect to existing frameworks (e.g., the excursion set approach);…
We develop a model for the growth of dark matter halos and use it to study their evolved density profiles. In this model, halos are spherical and form by quiescent accretion of matter in clumps, called satellites. The halo mass as a…
We investigate a hypothesis regarding the origin of the scalelength in halos formed in cosmological N-body simulations. This hypothesis can be viewed as an extension of an earlier idea put forth by Merritt and Aguilar. Our findings suggest…
Modelling the build-up of halos is important for linking the formation of galaxies with cosmological models. A simple model of halo growth is provided by Press-Schechter (PS) theory, where the initial field of density fluctuations is…
The lensing magnification effect due to large-scale structure is statistically measurable by correlation of size fluctuations in distant galaxy images as well as by the QSO-galaxy cross-correlation. We use the halo model formulation of…
The halo assembly bias, a phenomenon referring to dependencies of the large-scale bias of a dark matter halo other than its mass, is a fundamental property of the standard cosmological model. First discovered in 2005 from the Millennium Run…
We perform detailed comparison of the semi-analytic halo model predictions with measurements in numerical simulations of the two and three point correlation functions (3PCF), as well as power spectrum and bispectrum. We discuss the accuracy…
The aperture mass has been shown in a series of recent publications to be a useful quantitative tool for weak lensing studies, ranging from cosmic shear to the detection of a mass-selected sample of dark matter haloes. Quantitative…
The proximity-effect theory developed by Takahashi and Tachiki for infinite multilayers is applied to multilayer systems with a finite number of layers in the growth direction. The purpose is to investigate why previous applications to…
We have studied structure formation in a confined block copolymer melt by means of dynamic density functional theory (DDFT). The confinement is two-dimensional, and the confined geometry is that of a cylindrical nanopore. Although the…
We use a hybrid observational/theoretical approach to study the relation between galaxy kinematics and the derived stellar and halo masses of galaxies up to z=3 as a function of stellar mass, redshift and morphology. Our observational…
Measurements made with the Voyager 1 spacecraft indicate that significant levels of compressive fluctuations exist in the inner heliosheath. Some studies have already been performed with respect to the mirror-mode instability in the…
The miscibility in several polymer blend mixtures (polymethylmethacrylate/polystyrene, (1,4-cis) polyisoprene/polystyrene, and polymethylmethacrylate/polyoxyethylene) has been investigated using Molecular Dynamics simulations for atomistic…
In the Excursion Set approach, halo abundances and clustering are closely related. This relation is exploited in many modern methods which seek to constrain cosmological parameters on the basis of the observed spatial distribution of…
A geometry-based density functional theory is presented for mixtures of hard spheres, hard needles and hard platelets; both the needles and the platelets are taken to be of vanishing thickness. Geometrical weight functions that are…
We show that a shell-model version of the three-dimensional Hall-magnetohydrodynamic (3D Hall-MHD) equations provides a natural theoretical model for investigating the multiscaling behaviors of velocity and magnetic structure functions. We…
A modified version of the extended Press-Schechter model for the growth of dark-matter haloes was introduced in two previous papers with the aim at explaining the mass-density relation shown by haloes in high-resolution cosmological…
The structural and dynamic properties of the dark matter halos, though an important ingredient in understanding large-scale structure formation, require more conservative particle resolution than those required by halo mass alone in a…
