The morphological nature of structures that form under gravitational instability has been of central interest to cosmology for over two decades. A remarkable feature of large scale structures in the Universe is that they occupy a relatively…
In this paper we review a recently developed approximate method for investigation of dynamics of compressible ellipsoidal figures. Collapse and subsequent behaviour are described by a system of ordinary differential equations for time…
Since the early seventies, there was a conjecture that the first collapse of a selfgravitating dust--like medium (appropriate approximation for nonbaryonic dark matter) results in the formation of a ``pancake" object, that is a thin…
Cold dark matter (CDM) can be thought of as a 2D (or 3D) sheet of particles in 4D (or 6D) phase-space due to its negligible velocity dispersion. The large-scale structure, also called the cosmic web, is thus a result of the topology of the…
If an early matter phase of the Universe existed after inflation with the proper power spectrum, enhanced density perturbations can decouple from the Hubble flow, turn around and collapse. In contrast to what happens in a radiation…
We investigate the stability of bounded self-gravitating systems in the canonical ensemble by using a thermodynamical approach. Our study extends the earlier work of Padmanabhan [Astrophys. J. Supp. 71, 651 (1989)] in the microcanonical…
Within the incompressible three-dimensional Euler equations, we study the pancake-like high vorticity regions, which arise during the onset of developed hydrodynamic turbulence. We show that these regions have an internal fine structure…
We present 2D, ideal-MHD numerical simulations of the Parker instability in a multi-component warm disk model. The calculations were done using two numerical codes with different algorithms, TVD and ZEUS-3D. The outcome of the numerical…
In the early Universe, large-scale flows were omnipresent, and the flow collisions produced sheets and filaments. This phenomenon occurs for both particle and wave dark matter. But for the latter, these sheets and filaments are the…
Filamentary structures, or long and narrow streams of material, arise in many areas of astronomy. Here we investigate the stability of such filaments by performing an eigenmode analysis of adiabatic and polytropic fluid cylinders, which are…
Molecular gas disks are generally Toomre stable ($Q_T>$1) and yet clearly gravitationally unstable to structure formation as evidenced by the existence of molecular clouds and ongoing star formation. This paper adopts a 3D perspective to…
The stability of thin homogeneous gaseous disk with step discontinuity of velocity and density profile has been investigated analytically in the limitary case of large compressibility and numerically at spatially separated velocity and…
Many strong simulated galactic bars experience buckling instability, which manifests itself as a vertical distortion out of the disk plane, and later dissipates. Using a simulation of an isolated Milky Way-like galaxy, I demonstrate that…
A linear stability analysis has been performed onto a self-gravitating magnetized gas disk bounded by external pressure. The resulting dispersion relation is fully explained by three kinds of instability: a Parker-type instability driven by…
It is well known that the first structures that form from small fluctuations in a self-gravitating, collisionless and initially smooth cold dark matter (CDM) fluid are pancakes. We study the gravitational force generated by such pancakes…
To be a formation mechanism of such large-scale structures as giant molecular clouds (GMCs) and HI superclouds, the classical Parker instability driven by external gravity has to overcome three major obstacles: The convective motion…
Recently in \cite{Anderson:2013zia, Anderson:2013ila}, it was shown that global de Sitter space is unstable even to the massive particle creation with no self-interactions. In this paper we study the instability by making use of the…
We simulate fragmentation and gravitational collapse of cold, magnetized molecular clouds. We explore the nonlinear development of an instability mediated by ambipolar diffusion, in which the collapse rate is intermediate to fast…
We examine how coupled dark matter and dark energy modify the development of Zel'dovich pancakes. We study how the various effects of these theories, such as a fifth force in the dark sector and a modified particle Hubble drag, produce…
We investigate the influence of non equilibrium thermodynamics on cosmological structure formation. In this paper, we consider the collapse of planar perturbations usually called "Zel'dovich pancakes". We have developed for that purpose a…
