3-Form Cosmology: Phantom Behaviour, Singularities and Interactions by João Morais, Mariam Bouhmadi-López, João Marto

“…In this work, we explore the possibility of avoiding such singularity via an interaction in the dark sector between cold dark matter and the 3-form field. For the kind of interactions considered, we deduce a condition for replacing the LSBR by a late time de Sitter phase. …”

Temporal evolution of cosmological density perturbations of the Bose–Einstein condensate dark matter by Subhra Mondal, Amitava Choudhuri

“…We find that the Bose–Einstein condensate model of dark matter could modify the temporal nature of density contrast evolution due to the presence of self-interaction and quantum pressure terms, which shows significant differences with respect to the conventional standard cold dark matter, and successfully solves the small-scale problems in the context of cosmological structure formation.…”

An alternative to the cosmological 'concordance model' by Blanchard, A, Douspis, M, Rowan-Robinson, M, Sarkar, S

“…Furthermore for universes consisting only of baryons and cold dark matter, the amplitude of matter fluctuations on cluster scales is too high, a problem which seems generic. …”

Testing core creation in hydrodynamical simulations using the HI kinematics of field dwarfs by Papastergis, E, Ponomareva, A

“…Core creation is regarded as one of the most promising solutions to potential issues faced by lambda cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmology on small scales. For example, the reduced dynamical mass enclosed by cores can explain the low rotational velocities measured for nearby dwarf galaxies, thus possibly lifting the seeming contradiction with the ΛCDM expectations (the so-called “too big to fail” problem). …”

WIMP matter power spectra and small scale power generation by Boehm, C, Mathis, H, Devriendt, J, Silk, J

“…The latter can be considered as Cold Dark Matter (CDM) particles in the sense that they become non relativistic before their thermal decoupling epoch. …”

A Virtual Sky with Extragalactic HI and CO Lines for the SKA and ALMA by Obreschkow, D, Kloeckner, H, Heywood, I, Levrier, F, Rawlings, S

“…This sky simulation builds on a semi-analytic model of the cosmic evolution of galaxies in a Lambda-cold dark matter (LCDM) cosmology. The evolving CDM-distribution was adopted from the Millennium Simulation, an N-body CDM-simulation in a cubic box with a side length of 500/h Mpc. …”

Probing relatively heavier right-handed selectron at the CEPC, FCCee and ILC by Waqas Ahmed, Imtiaz Khan, Tianjun Li, Shabbar Raza, Wenxing Zhang

“…Such parameter spaces can not only saturate the cold dark matter relic density bound within 5σ set by the Planck 2018, but also satisfy the other standard collider mass bounds and B-physics bounds. …”

Weighing Cosmological Models with SNe Ia and Gamma Ray Burst Redshift Data by Rajendra P. Gupta

“…The purpose of this paper is to examine several suggested models using the same supernovae Ia data and gamma-ray burst (GRB) data with the same goodness-of-fit criterion and weigh them against the standard Lambda cold dark matter model (&#923;CDM). We have used the redshift&#8212;distance modulus (<i>z</i> &#8722; <i>&#956;</i>) data for 580 supernovae Ia with 0.015 &#8804; <i>z</i> &#8804; 1.414 to determine the parameters for each model and then use these model parameter to see how each model fits the sole SNe Ia data at <i>z</i> = 1.914 and the GRB data up to <i>z</i> = 8.1. …”
