In recent years, the distribution of galaxies in the Universe could be measured up to large distances and over a significant part of the sky. The analysis of this large-scale structure contains a wealth of cosmological ...

In the past years cosmology, the science of the universe as a whole, has seen tremendous progress. The Lambda-Cold-Dark-Matter scenario is widely accepted as the standard model of cosmology describing the evolution of the ...

Galaxies were formed from primordial baryonic matter within the gravitational potential of the dark matter. Today a confusing wealth of different galaxy populations is known. Explaining the emergence of this zoo of galaxy ...

One of the main problems in cosmology is to understand the formation and evolution of galaxies, galaxy clusters, and large-scale structure. Whereas the basics of the current Cold Dark Matter (CDM) paradigm for structure ...
