Similarity solutions are found for the adiabatic collapse of density perturbations $\delta M/M \propto r^{-s}$ $(s>0)$ in a flat universe containing collisional gas only. The solutions are obtained for planar, cylindrical, and spherical…
We present an efficient numerical algorithm for evolving self-gravitating systems of dark-matter particles that leverages the assumption of spherical symmetry to reduce the nominally six-dimensional phase space to three dimensions. It can…
We investigate the formation of virialized halos due to the gravitational collapse of collisionless matter using high-resolution N-body simulations. A variety of formation scenarios are studied, ranging from hierarchical clustering to…
Traditionally the spherical collapse of objects is studied with respect to a uniform background density, yielding the critical over-density $\delta_\mathrm{c}$ as key ingredient to the mass function of virialized objects. Here we…
We study the planar motion of test particles in gravitational fields produced by an external material halo, of the type found in many astrophysical systems, such as elliptical galaxies and globular clusters. Both the Newtonian and the…
The evolution of an isolated over-density represents a useful toy model to test the accuracy of a cosmological N-body code in the non linear regime as it is approximately equivalent to that of a truly isolated cloud of particles, with same…
In this work we study the dynamics of gravitational collapse of a homogeneous dust sphere in a model exhibiting a linear non-minimal coupling between matter and curvature. The evolution of the scale factor and the matter density is obtained…
Using $N$-body simulations with massive neutrino density perturbations, we detect the scale-dependent linear halo bias with high significance. This is the first time that this effect is detected in simulations containing neutrino density…
We investigate the properties of a model of granular matter consisting of $N$ Brownian particles on a line subject to inelastic mutual collisions. This model displays a genuine thermodynamic limit for the mean values of the energy and the…
Small scale challenges suggest some missing pieces in our understanding of dark matter. A cascade theory for dark matter is proposed to provide extra insights, similar to the cascade phenomenon in hydrodynamic turbulence. The kinetic energy…
The complete spectrum of the endstates - naked singularities, or blackholes - of gravitational collapse is analyzed for a wide class of $N$-dimensional spacetimes in spherical symmetry, which includes and generalizes the dust solutions and…
We study the dynamics and structure of clusters in the inhomogeneous clustered regime of a freely cooling granular gas of point particles in one dimension. The coefficient of restitution is modeled as $r_0<1$ or 1 depending on whether the…
We provide a scenario for a singularity-mediated turbulence based on the self-focusing non-linear Schr\"odinger equation, for which sufficiently smooth initial states leads to blow-up in finite time. Here, by adding dissipation, these…
The evolution in shape of an isolated density enhancement in the early universe is studied through numerical simulations. The formation scenarios of a cold dissipationless collapse and that of a slow accumulation of gas in a dark matter…
A two-dimensional lattice system of non-interacting electrons in a homogeneous magnetic field with half a flux quantum per plaquette and a random potential is considered. For the large scale behavior a supersymmetric theory with collective…
The non-relativistic self-gravitating gas in thermal equilibrium in the presence of a positive cosmological constant Lambda (dark energy) is investigated. The dark energy introduces a force pushing outward all particles with strength…
The behavior of nuclear matter is studied at low densities and temperatures using classical molecular dynamics with three different sets of potentials with different compressibility. Nuclear matter is found to arrange in crystalline…
We solve the nonlinear evolution of pressureless, irrotational density fluctuations in a perturbed Robertson-Walker spacetime using a new Lagrangian method based on the velocity gradient and gravity gradient tensors. Borrowing results from…
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. I introduce a generalized form of the initial density…
Adaptive SPH and N-body simulations were carried out to study the evolution of the equilibrium structure of dark matter halos that result from the gravitational instability and fragmentation of cosmological pancakes. Such halos resemble…
