The differences between cold (CDM) and warm (WDM) dark matter in the formation of a group of galaxies is examined by running two identical simulations where in the WDM case the initial power spectrum has been altered to mimic a 1keV dark…
We present the first self-consistently computed results on the evolution of X-ray properties of galaxy clusters in a Cold + Hot Dark Matter (CHDM) model. We have performed a hydrodynamic plus N-body simulation for the COBE-compatible CHDM…
We use the moments of counts of neighbors as given by the Generalized Correlation Integrals, to study the clustering properties of Dark Matter Halos (DH) in Cold Dark Matter (CDM) and Cold+Hot Dark Matter (CHDM) models. We compare the…
Here we discuss what are perhaps the two most popular variants of CDM that might agree with the data: \lcdm\ and CHDM. While the predictions of COBE-normalized \lcdm\ and CHDM both agree well with the available data on scales of $\sim 10$…
We use high resolution PM N-body simulations to follow the development of non-linear clustering in a flat Universe, dominated by Cold + Hot Dark Matter (CHDM) with 60% of CDM, 30% of HDM and 10% of baryons; a simulation box of 100 Mpc a…
We examine high-resolution gravitational N-body simulations of the $\Omega=1$ cold dark matter (CDM) model in order to determine whether there is any normalization of the initial density fluctuation spectrum that yields acceptable results…
A robust prediction of $\Lambda{\rm CDM}$ cosmology is the halo circular velocity function (CVF), a dynamical cousin of the halo mass function. The correspondence between theoretical and observed CVFs is uncertain, however: cluster galaxies…

We analyse parallel N-body simulations of three Cold Dark Matter (CDM) universes to study the abundance and clustering of galaxy clusters. The simulations cover a volume comparable to the forthcoming SDSS. We are able to make robust…
The abundance of galactic systems at high redshifts can impose a strong constraint on the cold+hot dark matter (CDM+HDM) models. The hot component reduces the excessive small-scale power in the COBE-normalized CDM model but also delays the…

The dynamics of the Local Group and its environment provide a unique challenge to cosmological models. The velocity field within 5h-1 Mpc of the Local Group (LG) is extremely ``cold''. The deviation from a pure Hubble flow, characterized by…
