We study dark energy cosmological models, extensions of the standard model of particles, characterized by having an extra relativistic energy density at very early times, and that rapidly dilute after a phase transition occurs. These models…

In this series of papers we present an emulator-based halo model for the non-linear clustering of galaxies in modified gravity cosmologies. In the first paper, we present emulators for the following halo properties: the halo mass function,…

Cosmological neutral hydrogen (HI) surveys provide a promising tomographic probe of the post-reionization era and of the standard model of cosmology. Simulations of this signal are crucial for maximizing the utility of these surveys. We…

We present a new, galaxy-halo model of large-scale structure, in which the galaxies entering a given sample are the fundamental objects. Haloes attach to galaxies, in contrast to the standard halo model, in which galaxies attach to haloes.…

Thermal inflation models (which feature two inflationary stages) can display damped primordial curvature power spectra on small scales which generate damped matter fluctuations. For a reasonable choice of parameters, thermal inflation…

Without relying on a spherical or ellipsoidal collapse model, we analytically derive the halo mass function and cuspy halo density (inner slope of -4/3) based on the mass and energy cascade theory in dark matter flow. The hierarchical halo…

The universality of the halo mass function is investigated in the context of dark energy cosmologies. This widely used approximation assumes that the mass function can be expressed as a function of the matter density omega_m and the rms…

We construct the halo mass function (HMF) from the GAMA galaxy group catalogue over the mass range 10^12.7M_sol to 10^15.5M_sol, and find good agreement with the expectation from LambdaCDM. In comparison to previous studies, this result…

In this work, we study the formation and evolution of dark matter halos by means of the spherical infall model with shell-crossing. We present a framework to tackle this effect properly based on the numerical follow-up, with time, of that…

The abundance of dark matter haloes is one of the key probes of the growth of structure and expansion history of the Universe. Theoretical predictions for this quantity usually assume that, when expressed in a certain form, it depends only…

To fully exploit the data from next generation surveys, we need an accurate modelling of the matter power spectrum up to non-linear scales. Therefore in this work we present the halo model reaction framework for the Generalized Cubic…

It is well established from cosmological simulations that dark matter haloes are not precisely self-similar and an additional parameter, beyond their concentration, is required to accurately describe their spherically-averaged mass density…

Violent relaxation during the collapse of a galaxy halo is known to be incomplete in realistic cases such as cosmological infall or mergers. We adopt a physical picture of strong but short lived interactions between potential fluctuations…

Resolved rotation curves (RCs) are our best probe of the dark matter distribution around individual galaxies. However their acquisition is resource-intensive, rendering them impractical for large-scale surveys and studies at higher…

Correlations between intrinsic ellipticities of galaxies are a potentially important systematic error when constraining dark energy properties from weak gravitational lensing (cosmic shear) surveys. In the absence of perfectly known galaxy…

We study spherical collapse in the Quartic and Quintic Covariant Galileon gravity models within the framework of the excursion set formalism. We derive the nonlinear spherically symmetric equations in the quasi-static and weak-field limits,…

Based on a suite of N-body simulations of the Hu-Sawicki model of f(R) gravity with different sets of model and cosmological parameters, we develop a new fitting formula with a numeric code, MGHalofit, to calculate the nonlinear matter…

We use a series of cosmological N-body simulations for a flat LCDM cosmology to investigate the properties of dark matter haloes in the mass range 3.0e9-3.0e13 Msun. These properties include the concentration parameter (c), the spin…

We present the power spectrum of the reconstructed halo density field derived from a sample of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Seventh Data Release (DR7). The halo power spectrum has a direct connection to the…

Viable modifications of gravity that may produce cosmic acceleration need to be screened in high-density regions such as the Solar System, where general relativity is well tested. Screening mechanisms also prevent strong anomalies in the…
