The ever increasing size and complexity of data coming from simulations cosmic structure formation demands equally sophisticated tools for their analysis. During the past decade, art object finding in these has hence developed into an important discipline itself. A multitude codes based upon a huge variety methods techniques have been spawned yet question remained as to whether or not they will provide same (physical) information about structures interest.

The universality of the halo mass function is investigated in context dark energy cosmologies. This widely used approximation assumes that can be expressed as a matter density omega_m and rms linear fluctuation sigma only, with no explicit dependence on properties or redshift. In order to test this hypothesis we run series 15 high-resolution N-body simulations for different cosmological models. These consists three LCDM cosmologies best fitting WMAP-1, 3 5 years data, toy-models...

Recent determinations of the mean free path ionising photons (mfp) in intergalactic medium (IGM) at $\rm z=6$ are lower than many theoretical predictions. To gain insight into this issue, we investigate evolution mfp our new massive fully coupled radiation hydrodynamics cosmological simulation reionization: Cosmic Dawn III (CoDaIII). CoDaIII's scale ($\rm 94^3 \, cMpc^3$) and resolution 8192^3$ grid) make it particularly suitable to study IGM during Reionization. The was performed with...

The upcoming generation of galaxy surveys will probe the distribution matter in Universe with unprecedented accuracy. Measurements power spectrum at different scales and red shifts provide stringent constraints on cosmological parameters. However, non-linear this require an accurate evaluation covariance matrix. Here, we compute matrix three-dimensional density for concordance ΛCDM cosmology from ensemble N-body simulations Dark Energy Simulation – Parallel Runs (DEUS-PUR). This consists 12...

The apparent distribution of large-scale structures in the universe is sensitive to velocity/potential sources as well potential along line-of-sight through mapping from real space redshift (redshift-space distortions, RSD). Since odd multipoles halo cross-correlation function vanish when considering standard Doppler RSD, dipole a probe relativistic and wide-angle effects.

Measurements of the sparsity galaxy clusters can be used to probe cosmological information encoded in host dark matter halo profile, and infer constraints on model parameters. Key success these analyses is control potential sources systematic uncertainties. As an example, presence baryons alter cluster with respect predictions from N-body simulations. Similarly, a radial-dependent mass bias, as case masses inferred under hydrostatic equilibrium (HE) hypothesis, affect estimates. First, we...

Dark energy as a quintessence component causes typical modification of the background cosmic expansion, which in addition to its clustering properties, can leave potentially distinctive signature on large scale structures. Many previous studies have investigated this topic, particularly relation non-linear regime structure formation. However, no careful pre-selection viable models with high precision cosmological data was performed. Here we show that has led misinterpretation (and...

The large-scale matter distribution in the late-time Universe exhibits gravity-induced non-Gaussianity, and bispectrum, three-point cumulant is expected to contain significant cosmological information. In particular, measurement of bispectrum helps tighten constraints on dark energy modified gravity through redshift-space distortions. this paper, extending work by Taruya, Nishimichi, Saito [Phys. Rev. D 82, 063522 (2010)], we present a perturbation theory (PT) based model that can keep...

This is first cosmological N-body simulation encompassing full observable cosmic volume, thus allowing variance limited predictions at BAO scales. control effect numerical systematic errors using a series large volume high-resolution simulations.

The linear point (LP), defined as the mid-point between dip and peak of two-point clustering correlation function (TPCF), has been shown to be an excellent standard ruler for cosmology. In fact, it is nearly redshift-independent, being weakly sensitive non-linearities, scale-dependent halo bias redshift-space distortions. So far, these findings were tested assuming that neutrinos are massless; in this paper we extend analysis massive-neutrino cosmologies. particular, examine if growth...

ABSTRACT It has been recently recognized that the observational relativistic effects, mainly arising from light propagation in an inhomogeneous universe, induce dipole asymmetry cross-correlation function of galaxies. In particular, at small scales is shown to be dominated by gravitational redshift effects. this paper, we exploit a simple analytical description for valid quasi-linear regime. contrast previous model, new prescription involves only 1D integrals, providing faster way reproduce...

Observations of colliding galaxy clusters with high relative velocity probe the tail halo pairwise distribution potential providing a powerful test cosmology. As an example it has been argued that discovery Bullet Cluster challenges standard $\Lambda$CDM model predictions. Halo catalogs from N-body simulations have used to estimate probability Bullet-like clusters. However, due simulation volume effects previous studies had rely on Gaussian extrapolation velocities. Here, we perform detail...

The excursion set approach provides a framework for predicting how the abundance of dark matter halos depends on initial conditions. A key ingredient this formalism comes from physics halo formation: specification critical overdensity threshold (barrier) which protohalos must exceed if they are to form bound virialized at later time. Another is statistical, as it requires appropriate statistical ensemble over average when making predictions. explicitly averages all positions, thus implicitly...

ABSTRACT Redshift-space distortions (RSD) in galaxy redshift surveys generally break both the isotropy and homogeneity of distribution. While former aspect is particularly highlighted as a probe growth structure induced by gravity, latter aspect, often quoted wide-angle RSD but ignored most cases, will become important critical to account for increasing statistical precision next-generation surveys. However, impact has been mostly studied using linear perturbation theory. In this paper,...

In this article we compare the halo mass function predicted by excursion set theory with a drifting diffusive barrier against results of N-body simulations for several cosmological models. This includes standard ΛCDM case large range masses, models different types primordial non-Gaussianity, and Ratra-Peebles quintessence model Dark Energy. We show that in all those scenarios, abundance dark matter halos can be described barrier, where two parameters describing have physical content....
