Upcoming weak lensing surveys, such as LSST, EUCLID, and WFIRST, aim to measure the matter power spectrum with unprecedented accuracy. In order to fully exploit these observations, models are needed that, given a set of cosmological…
The existence of a dark energy component has usually been invoked as the most plausible way to explain the recent observational results. However, it is also well known that effects arising from new physics (e.g., extra dimensions) can mimic…
There are many indications that ordinary matter represents only a tiny fraction of the matter content of the Universe, with the remainder assumed to consist of some different type of matter, which, for various reasons must be nonluminous…
In this paper, we study the cosmological implications of the 100 square degree Weak Lensing survey (the CFHTLS-Wide, RCS, VIRMOS-DESCART and GaBoDS surveys). We combine these weak lensing data with the cosmic microwave background (CMB)…
Inspired by a new compilation of strong lensing systems, which consist of 204 points in the redshift range $0.0625< z_{l} < 0.958$ for the lens and $0.196< z_{s} < 3.595$ for the source, we constrain three models that generate a late cosmic…
We determine the angular power spectrum, C_l, of the Edinburgh/Durham Southern Galaxy Catalog (EDSGC) and use this statistic to constrain cosmological parameters. Our methods for determining C_l, and the parameters that affect it are based…
The near equality of the dark matter and baryon energy densities is a remarkable coincidence, especially when one realizes that the baryon mass is exponentially sensitive to UV parameters in the form of dimensional transmutation. We explore…
We use observational data from Supernovae (SNIa) Pantheon sample, as well as from direct measurements of the Hubble parameter from the cosmic chronometers (CC) sample, in order to extract constraints on the scenario of Barrow holographic…
Recent cosmological observations hint at a deviation from the simple power-law form of the primordial spectrum of curvature perturbations. In this paper we show that in the presence of a tensor component, a turn-over in the initial spectrum…
We study a two-parameter extension of the cosmological standard model $\Lambda$CDM in which cold dark matter interacts with a new form of dark radiation. The two parameters correspond to the energy density in the dark radiation fluid…
We constrain the evolution of dark matter energy density over time, specifically focusing on deviation from the standard model represented by the equation $\rho_{m}\propto(1+z)^{3-\varepsilon}$, where $\varepsilon$ is a constant parameter.…
The matter power spectrum as derived from large scale structure (LSS) surveys contains two important and distinct pieces of information: an overall smooth shape and the imprint of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO). We investigate the…
The next generation of space-based galaxy surveys are expected to measure the growth rate of structure to about a percent level over a range of redshifts. The rate of growth of structure as a function of redshift depends on the behaviour of…
We study the evolution of density perturbations for a class of $f(R)$ models which closely mimic $\Lambda$CDM background cosmology. Using the quasi-static approximation, and the fact that these models are equivalent to scalar-tensor…
Strong lensing has developed into an important astrophysical tool for probing both cosmology and galaxies (their structures, formations, and evolutions). Now several hundreds of strong lens systems produced by massive galaxies have been…
Reconstruction of the linear power spectrum from observational data provides a way to compare cosmological models to a large amount of data, as Peacock & Dodds (1994, 1996) have shown. By applying the appropriate corrections to the…
The observed dark matter phenomenon is attributed to the presence of a gas of wormholes. We show that due to topological polarization effects the background density of baryons generates non-vanishing values for wormhole rest masses. We…
Any viable cosmological model must produce enough structure at early epochs to explain the amount of gas associated with high-redshift damped Ly$\alpha$ systems. We study the evolution of damped Ly$\alpha$ systems at redshifts $z\ge 2$ in…
Measurements of time delays between multiple quasar images produced by strong lensing are reaching a sensitivity that makes them a promising cosmological probe. Future surveys will provide significantly more measurements, reaching…
The galactic scale challenges of dark matter such as "missing satellite" problem and "too big to fail" problem are the main caveats of standard model of cosmology. These challenges could be solved either by implementing the complicated…
