Wormholes and Naked Singularities in Brans-Dicke cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We perform analytical and numerical study of static spherically symmetric solutions in the context of Brans-Dicke-like cosmological model by Elizalde et al. with an exponential potential.

Axion Cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Axions comprise a broad class of particles that can play a major role in explaining the unknown aspects of cosmology. They are also well-motivated within high energy physics, appearing in theories related to CP -violation in the standard model ...

Bianchi identities in f(T) gravity: Paving the way to confrontation with astrophysics

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2020
Theories of f(T) gravity are being actively confronted with cosmological observations, and are being studied for their potential to solve famous problems of cosmology. A necessary step is to extend these studies to astrophysical settings.

Strangeness in astrophysics and cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, 2010
Some recent developments concerning the role of strange quark matter for astrophysical systems and the QCD phase transition in the early universe are addressed. Causality constraints of the soft nuclear equation of state as extracted from subthreshold kaon production in heavy-ion collisions are used to derive an upper mass limit for compact stars.

f(T) teleparallel gravity and cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesReports on progress in physics. Physical Society, 2015
Over recent decades, the role of torsion in gravity has been extensively investigated along the main direction of bringing gravity closer to its gauge formulation and incorporating spin in a geometric description.

Astrophysical Configurations with Background Cosmology: Probing Dark Energy at Astrophysical Scales

open access: yes, 2007
We explore the effects of a positive cosmological constant on astrophysical and cosmological configurations described by a polytropic equation of state.

Cosmology and Astrophysical Constraints of Gauss-Bonnet Dark Energy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Cosmological consequences of a string-motivated dark energy scenario featuring a scalar field coupled to the Gauss-Bonnet invariant are investigated. We study the evolution of the universe in such a model, identifying its key properties. The evolution of

COLOSSUS: A Python Toolkit for Cosmology, Large-scale Structure, and Dark Matter Halos [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2017
This paper introduces Colossus, a public, open-source python package for calculations related to cosmology, the large-scale structure (LSS) of matter in the universe, and the properties of dark matter halos.

Brans–Dicke cosmology with a Λ-term: a possible solution to ΛCDM tensions [PDF]

open access: yesClassical and quantum gravity, 2020
We present a full-fledged analysis of Brans–Dicke cosmology with a cosmological constant and cold dark matter (BD-ΛCDM for short). We extend the scenarios where the current cosmological value of the BD-field is restricted by the local astrophysical ...

Astro-quark matter: a challenge facing astroparticle physics

open access: yes, 2008
Quark matter both in terrestrial experiment and in astrophysics is briefly reviewed. Astrophysical quark matter could appear in the early Universe, in compact stars, and as cosmic rays. Emphasis is put on quark star as the nature of pulsars.
