The claim that large-scale structure data independently prefers the Lambda Cold Dark Matter model is a myth. However, an updated compilation of large-scale structure observations cannot rule out Lambda CDM at 95% confidence. We explore the…
We study the spherical, top-hat collapse model for a mixed dark matter model including cold dark matter (CDM) and massive neutrinos of mass scales ranging from m_nu= 0.05 to a few 0.1eV, the range of lower- and upper-bounds implied from the…
The cold dark matter (CDM) cosmological model unambigously predicts that a large number of haloes should survive as subhaloes when they are accreted into a larger halo. The CDM model would be ruled out if such substructures were shown not…
Decaying dark matter models provide a physically motivated way of channeling energy between the matter and radiation sectors. In principle, this could affect the predicted value of the Hubble constant in such a way as to accommodate the…
COBE-normalized flat (matter plus cosmological constant) and open Cold Dark Matter (CDM) models are tested by comparing their expected Hubble flow variations and the observed variations in a Type Ia supernova sample and a Tully Fisher…
The observational data on the large scale structure (LSS) of the Universe are used to determine cosmological parameters within the class of adiabatic inflationary models. We show that a mixed dark matter model with cosmological constant…
Mildly mixed coupled models include massive neutrinos and CDM--DE coupling. We present new tests of their likelihood vs. recent data including WMAP7, confirming it to exceed LCDM, although at ~2\sigma's. We then show the impact on the…
I suggest an effective model between the GUT and the electroweak scale. It only introduces the two symmetries of $U(1)_{B-L}$ and $U(1)_{D}$ besides the SM groups. The two symmetries are individually broken at the reheating temperature of…
We provide a list of particle physics models at the TeV-scale that are compatible with neutrino masses and dark matter. In these models, the Standard Model particle content is extended with a small number (\leq 4) of scalar and fermion…
Massive neutrinos have a detectable effect on cosmological structure formation, in particular on the large-scale distribution of galaxies. Adding Hot Dark Matter to the now-standard Lambda CDM model leads to a worse fit to large-scale…
We consider the prospects of supersymmetric dark matter in light of the recent results announced by the CDMS experiments. In this paper, we investigate the status of: (i) neutralino dark matter in models of minimal supergravity, (ii)…
The Phenomenologically Emergent Dark Energy model, a dark energy model with the same number of free parameters as the flat $\Lambda$CDM, has been proposed as a working example of a minimal model which can avoid the current cosmological…
The bulk of recent cosmological research has focused on the adiabatic cold dark matter model and its simple extensions. Here we present an accurate fitting formula that describes the matter transfer functions of all common variants,…
Although it is well known that the bulk of dark matter (DM) has to be cold, the existence of an additional sub-dominant, hot species remains a valid possibility. In this paper we investigate the potential of the cosmic shear power spectrum…
A simple and natural extension of the standard Lambda cold dark matter ($\Lambda$CDM) model is to allow relic neutrinos to have finite chemical potentials. We confront this $\Lambda$CDM$\xi$ model, a $\Lambda$CDM with neutrino mass $M_\nu$…
It has been known that there are two schemes in the framework of three flavor neutrinos to accommodate the global features of the hot dark matter neutrinos, the solar neutrino deficit and the atmospheric neutrino anomaly in a manner…
We consider pure isocurvature cold dark matter models in the case of open and closed universe. We allow for a large spectral tilt and scan the 6-dimensional parameter space for the best fit to the COBE, Boomerang, and Maxima-1 data. Taking…
We present an analysis of cosmological models with mixed dark matter (spectrum slope of density perturbations $n_S \in [0.6, 1.6]$, hot dark matter abundance $\Omega_\nu \in [0.0, 0.6]$) in spatially flat Universe, based on Press-Schechter…
The combination of new cosmic microwave background data with cosmological priors has determined the physical cold dark matter (cdm) density to be $\Omega_{\rm cdm} h^2 = 0.13\pm0.01$. We find the corresponding regions of parameters in the…
It is now clear that the masses of the neutrino sector are much lighter than those of the other three sectors.There are many attempts to explain the neutrino masses radiatively by means of inert Higgses, which don't have vacuum expectation…
