A new class of exact electrostatic solutions of the Vlasov-Maxwell equations based on the Jeans's theorem is proposed for studying the evolution and properties of two-dimensional anisotropic plasmas that are far from thermodynamic…
The root-mean-square of non-relativistic warm dark matter particle velocities scales as $v_{h\textrm{rms}}(a) = v_{h\textrm{rms}}(1)/a$, where $a$ is the expansion parameter of the universe. This velocity dispersion results in a cut-off of…
The growth of the density fluctuations is considered to be an important cosmological test. In the standard model, for a matter dominated universe, the growth of the density perturbations evolves with redshift z like (1/{1+z))^s with s=1.…
Dynamical estimates of the mass surface density at the solar radius can be made up to a height of 4 kpc using thick disk stars as tracers of the potential. We investigate why different Jeans estimators of the local surface density lead to…
We consider the astrophysical and cosmological implications of the existence of a minimum density and mass due to the presence of the cosmological constant. If there is a minimum length in nature, then there is an absolute minimum mass…
Criterion of the Jeans instability of interstellar gas clouds which are gravitationally coupled with weakly interacting massive particles is revisited. It is established that presence of the dark matter always reduces the Jeans length, and…
We study the stability of a spherically symmetric density profile. We analyze the case of a collisionless system with a power-law profile given by rho propto r^-alpha, in the Newtonian regime using the Jeans equation. The Jeans equation is…
A collisionless plasma is modeled by the Vlasov-Poisson system in three space dimensions. A fixed background of positive charge - dependant upon only velocity - is assumed. The situation in which mobile negative ions balance the positive…
Although the baryons in the intergalactic medium (IGM) trace dark matter on Mpc scales, small-scale (~100 kpc) fluctuations are suppressed by pressure support, analogous to the classical Jeans argument. This Jeans filtering scale has…
Decaying dark matter cosmological models have been proposed to remedy the overproduction problem at small scales in the standard cold dark matter paradigm. We consider a decaying dark matter model in which one CDM mother particle decays…
The motion of a collisionless plasma - a high-temperature, low-density, ionized gas - is described by the Vlasov-Maxwell system. In the presence of large velocities, relativistic corrections are meaningful, and when symmetry of the particle…
A collisionless plasma is modeled by the Vlasov-Poisson system in three space dimensions. A fixed background of positive charge, which is independent of time and space, is assumed. The situation in which mobile negative ions balance the…
We investigate the relationship between the dark matter and baryons in the linear regime. This relation is quantified by the so-called ``filtering scale''. We show that a simple gaussian ansatz which uses the filtering scale provides a good…
Measurement of the local dark matter density plays an important role in both Galactic dynamics and dark matter direct detection experiments. However, the estimated values from previous works are far from agreeing with each other. In this…
We propose a mass-varying dark matter (MVDM) model consisting of a scalar field and a fermionic field interacting via a simple Yukawa coupling, and containing an exponential self-interaction potential for the scalar field. Analyzing the…
We investigate the properties of hybrid gravitational/hydrodynamical simulations, examining both the numerics and the general physical properties of gravitationally driven, hierarchical collapse in a mixed baryonic/dark matter fluid. We…
Cosmological simulations describing the evolution of density perturbations of a self-gravitating collisionless Dark Matter (DM) fluid in an expanding background, provide a powerful tool to follow the formation of cosmic structures over wide…
It has been known for nearly 20 years that the pseudo phase-space density profile of equilibrium simulated dark matter halos, $\rho(r)/\sigma^3(r)$, is well described by a power law over 3 decades in radius, even though both the density…
We propose a simple model in which the cosmological dark matter consists of particles whose mass increases with the scale factor of the universe. The particle mass is generated by the expectation value of a scalar field which does not have…
Many scaling relations are observed for self-gravitating systems in the universe. We explore the consistent understanding of them from a simple principle based on the proposal that the collision-less dark matter fluid terns into a turbulent…
