We study spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of an inhomogeneous fluid with anisotropic energy momentum tensor (EMT) in Rastall gravity. Considering a linear equation of state (EoS) for the fluid profiles, i.e., $p_r=w_r\rho$ and…
We investigate non-linear scaling relations for two-dimensional gravitational collapse in an expanding background using a 2D TreePM code and study the strongly non-linear regime ($\bar\xi \leq 200$) for power law models. Evolution of these…
The kinematics of distant galaxies, from z=0.1 to z>2, play a key role in our understanding of galaxy evolution from early times to the present. One of the important parameters is the intrinsic, or local, velocity dispersion of a galaxy,…
Understanding rare events in turbulence provides a basis for the science of extreme weather, for which the atmosphere is modeled by Navier-Stokes equations (NSEs). In solutions of NSEs for isotropic fluids, various quantities, such as fluid…
We consider the benefits of measuring cosmic statistical anisotropy from redshift-space correlators of the galaxy number density fluctuation and the peculiar velocity field without adopting the plane-parallel (PP) approximation. Since the…
The nature of the gravitational wave background (GWB) is a key question in modern astrophysics and cosmology, with significant implications for understanding of the structure and evolution of the Universe. We demonstrate how…
In seismic imaging, understanding the relationship between wavefront-propagation velocity and time-interval velocity is crucial for achieving optimal resolution. However, this task becomes even more challenging when considering anisotropic…
Non-linear evolution of cosmological energy density fluctuations triggers deviations from Gaussianity in the temperature distribution of the cosmic microwave background. A method to estimate these deviations is proposed. N-body simulations…
We analyze the clustering of large scale structure in the Universe in a model independent method, accounting for anisotropic effects along and transverse to the line of sight. The Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopy Survey Data Release 11…
In this paper, we study the collapse of a massive shell in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensional gravity with Anti-de Sitter asymptotics. Using the Gauss-Codazzi method, we derive gravitational equations of motion of the shell. We then use the functional…
We derive the conditional probability distribution of the peculiar velocity around a peak of given overdensity in a Gaussian density field. This distribution characterizes the shear field around local, isolated density peaks. We use the…
We make precise the heretofore ambiguous statement that anisotropic stress is a sign of a modification of gravity. We show that in cosmological solutions of very general classes of models extending gravity --- all scalar-tensor theories…
Numerical studies of gravitational collapse in isotropic coordinates have recently shown an interesting connection between the gravitational Lagrangian and black hole thermodynamics. A study of the actual spacetime was not the main focus of…
Astrophysical systems, such as clumps that form star clusters share a density profile that is close to $\rho \sim r^{-2}$. We prove analytically this density profile is the result of the scale-free nature of the gravitational collapse.…
We experimentally probe the anisotropy of the fabric of weakly vibrated, flowing granular media. Depending on the driving parameters --- flow rate and vibration strength --- this anisotropy varies significantly. We show how the anisotropy…
The Milky Way's satellite galaxies and Globular Clusters (GCs) are known to exhibit an anisotropic spatial distribution. We examine in detail this anisotropy by the means of the inertia tensor. We estimate the statistical significance of…
Understanding the small-scale structure of incompressible turbulence and its implications for the non-local pressure field is one of the fundamental challenges in fluid mechanics. Intense velocity gradient structures tend to cluster on a…
We perform a statistical analysis of the peculiar velocity field around dark matter haloes in numerical simulations. We examine different properties of the infall of material onto haloes and its relation to central halo shapes and the shape…
Theory and simulations are used to study collisionless relaxation of a gravitational $N$-body system. It is shown that when the initial one particle distribution function satisfies the virial condition -- potential energy is minus twice the…
Using experimental longitudinal and transverse velocities data for very high Reynolds number turbulence, we study both anisotropy and asymmetry of turbulence. These both seem to be related to small scale turbulent structures, and to…
