We examine the properties of the galaxies and dark matter haloes residing in the cluster infall region surrounding the simulated $\Lambda$CDM galaxy cluster studied by Elahi et al. (2016) at z=0. The $1.1\times10^{15}h^{-1}\text{M}_{\odot}$…
The mass and composition of dark matter (DM) particles and the shape and damping scales of the power spectrum of density perturbations can be estimated from recent observations of the DM dominated relaxed objects -- dwarf galaxies and…
A wavelet space-scale decomposition (SSD) analysis of large scale structures in the universe has been developed. The SSD method of identifying and measuring structures in the spatial distribution of objects has been demonstrated. The…
An increasing variety of crystal structures has been observed in soft condensed matter over the past two decades, surpassing most expectations for the diversity of arrangements accessible through classical driving forces. Here, we survey…
We investigated the structures on scales beyond the typical clusters of galaxies. These structures are crucial to understand the cosmic gravitational clustering in the pre-virialized stage, or quasilinear r\`egime. Based on the…
We consider three cosmological models with non-power-law spectra of primordial density perturbations and test them against $\Lambda$CDM in density profiles of dark matter halos. We found that, despite the significant difference in initial…
We demonstrate that the output of a cosmological N-body simulation can, to remarkable accuracy, be scaled to represent the growth of large-scale structure in a cosmology with parameters similar to but different from those originally…
Structure formation at small cosmological scales provides an important frontier for dark matter (DM) research. Scenarios with small DM particle masses, large momenta or hidden interactions tend to suppress the gravitational clustering at…
(Abridged) Using high-resolution cosmological N-body simulations, we study how the density profiles of dark matter halos are affected by the filtering of the density power spectrum below a given scale length and by the introduction of a…
We present mass models for the dark matter component of seven dwarf galaxies taken from "The HI Nearby Galaxy Survey" (THINGS) and compare these with those from numerical Lambda Cold Dark Matter (LCDM) simulations. The THINGS…
We use the Millennium Simulation, a large, high resolution N-body simulation of the evolution of structure in a LambdaCDM cosmology, to study the properties and fate of substructures within a large sample of dark matter haloes. We find that…
(abridged) We used a suite of numerical cosmological simulations in order to investigate the effect of gas cooling and star formation on the large scale matter distribution. The simulations follow the formation of cosmic structures in five…
We investigate a cosmological scenario in which the dark matter particles can be created during the evolution of the Universe. By regarding the Universe as an open thermodynamic system and using non-equilibrium thermodynamics, we examine…
The non-zero mass of neutrinos suppresses the growth of cosmic structure on small scales. Since the level of suppression depends on the sum of the masses of the three active neutrino species, the evolution of large-scale structure is a…
We test the concordance LCDM cosmology by comparing predictions for the mean properties of galaxy clusters to observations. We use high-resolution N-body simulations of cosmic structure formation and semi-analytic models of galaxy formation…
We determine the shape, multiplicity, size, and radial structure of superclusters in the LambdaCDM concordance cosmology from z = 0 to z = 2. Superclusters are defined as clusters of clusters in our large-scale cosmological simulation. We…
Adaptive SPH and N-body simulations were carried out to study the effect of gasdynamics on the structure of dark matter halos that result from the gravitational instability and fragmentation of cosmological pancakes. Such halos resemble…
Stringent observational constraints on the sub-galactic matter power spectrum would allow one to distinguish between the concordance $\Lambda$CDM and the various alternative dark-matter models that predict significantly different properties…
We investigate the mass functions of different elements of the Large Scale Structure -- walls, pancakes, filaments and clouds -- and the impact of transverse motions -- expansion and/or compression -- on their statistical characteristics.…
We have undertaken a spectroscopic survey of gravitational arcs in a carefully chosen sample of six clusters each containing a dominant brightest cluster galaxy. We use these systems to study the relative distributions of dark and baryonic…
