Nonlinear Cosmological Structure Formation
I present a general discussion of the evolution and model-dependence of both the linear and nonlinear power spectrum of density fluctuations. The features of the linear power spectrum in cosmological models with cold dark matter (CDM) and cold+hot dark matter (C+HDM) are reviewed, and useful analytical approximations are summarized. Cosmological numerical simulation results are then used to ill...
متن کاملQuintessence and the cosmological constant
The idea of quintessence originates from an attempt to understand the smallness of the “cosmological constant” or dark energy in terms of the large age of the universe [1]. As a characteristic consequence, the amount of dark energy may be of the same order of magnitude as radiation or dark matter during a long period of the cosmological history, including the present epoch. Today, the inhomogen...
متن کاملEffective cosmological “constant” and quintessence
In this paper we present exactly solved extended quintessence models; furthermore, through a dynamical effective Q-cosmological ”constant”, we recover some of the Λ decaying cases found in the literature. Finally we introduce a sort of complementarity between the Q-dominated or Λdominated expansions of the Universe. e-mail addresses: [email protected] [email protected]
متن کاملCosmological acceleration from structure formation
We discuss the Buchert equations, which describe the average expansion of an inhomogeneous dust universe. In the limit of small perturbations, they reduce to the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker equations. However, when the universe is very inhomogeneous, the behaviour can be qualitatively different from the FRW case. In particular, the average expansion rate can accelerate even though the local expa...
متن کاملA new class of cosmological quintessence models
We propose a new class of quintessence models in which late times oscillations of a scalar field give rise to an effective equation of state which can be negative: wφ ≤ −1/3, and hence drive the observed acceleration of the universe. Currently favoured values Ωφ ∼ 0.7, ΩCDM ∼ 0.3 inferred from observations of high redshift supernovae can be easily accommodated by our model. A novel feature of o...
