Revisiting Vainshtein screening for fast N-body simulations

open access: yesJournal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2023
AbstractWe revisit a method to incorporate the Vainshtein screening mechanism inN-body simulations proposed by R. Scoccimarro in [1]. We further extend this method to cover a subset of Horndeski theories that evade the bound on the speed of gravitational waves set by the binary neutron star merger GW170817.

N-body simulations of the Carina dSph in MOND [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The classical dwarf spheroidals (dSphs) provide a critical test for Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) because they are observable satellite galactic systems with low internal accelerations and low, but periodically varying, external acceleration.

N-body Simulations of Galaxy Formation [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1988
Modern N-body techniques allow the study of galaxy formation in the wider context of the formation of large-scale structure in the Universe. The results of such a study within the cold dark matter cosmogony are described. Dark galactic halos form at relatively recent epochs.

The BEHOMO project: $Λ$LTB $N$-body simulations

open access: yesarXiv.org, 2022
Our Universe may feature large-scale inhomogeneities and anisotropies which cannot be explained by the standard model of cosmology, that is, the homogeneous and isotropic FLRW metric, on which the $Λ$CDM model is built, may not describe accurately observations.

Gravitational clustering in N-body simulations

open access: yes, 2001
In this talk we discuss some of the main theoretical problems in the understanding of the statistical properties of gravity. By means of N-body simulations we approach the problem of understanding the r\^ole of gravity in the clustering of a finite set ...

N-body simulations of gravitational dynamics

open access: yes, 2011
We describe the astrophysical and numerical basis of N-body simulations, both of collisional stellar systems (dense star clusters and galactic centres) and collisionless stellar dynamics (galaxies and large-scale structure).

The Halo Density Profiles with Non-Standard N-body Simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We propose a new numerical procedure to simulate a single dark halo of any size and mass in a hierarchical framework coupling the extended Press-Schechter formalism (EPSF) to N-body simulations.

On the reliability of N-body simulations [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Astrophysics and Cosmology, 2015
AbstractThe general consensus in the N-body community is that statistical results of an ensemble of collisional N-body simulations are accurate, even though individual simulations are not. A way to test this hypothesis is to make a direct comparison of an ensemble of solutions obtained by conventional methods with an ensemble of true solutions.

Bias deconstructed: Unravelling the scale dependence of halo bias using real space measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We explore the scale dependence of halo bias using real space cross-correlation measurements in N-body simulations and in Pinocchio, an algorithm based on Lagrangian Perturbation Theory. Recent work has shown how to interpret such real space measurements
