We explore the dependence of the subhalo mass function on the spectral index n of the linear matter power spectrum using scale-free Einstein-de Sitter simulations with n=-1 and n=-2.5. We carefully consider finite volume effects that may call into question previous simulations of n<-2 power spectra. Subhaloes are found using a 6D friends-of-friends algorithm in all haloes originating from high-sigma peaks. For n=-1, we find that the cumulative subhalo mass function is independent of the parameters used in the subhalo finding algorithm and is consistent with the subhalo mass function found in LCDM simulations. In particular, the subhalo mass function is well fit by a power-law with an index of alpha=-0.9, that is the mass function has roughly equal mass in subhaloes per logarithmic interval in subhalo mass. Conversely, for n=-2.5, the algorithm parameters affect the subhalo mass function since subhaloes are more triaxial with less well defined boundaries. We find that the index alpha is generally larger with alpha>=-0.75. We infer that although the subhalo mass function appears to be independent of n so long as n>=-2, it begins to flatten as n->-3. Thus, the common practice of using alpha=-1.0 may greatly overestimate the number of subhaloes at the smallest scales in the CDM hierarchy.
The free streaming motion of dark matter particles imprints a cutoff in the matter power spectrum and set the scale of the smallest dark matter halo. Recent cosmological $N$-body simulations have shown that the central density cusp is much steeper in
We present a study of the substructure finder dependence of subhalo clustering in the Aquarius Simulation. We run 11 different subhalo finders on the haloes of the Aquarius Simulation and we study their differences in the density profile, mass fracti
In TeV scale B-L extension of the standard model with inverse seesaw, the Yukawa coupling of right-handed neutrinos can be of order one. This implies that the out of equilibrium condition for leptogenesis within standard cosmology is not satisfied. W
We present a simple numerical scheme for perturbation theory (PT) calculations of large-scale structure. Solving the evolution equations for perturbations numerically, we construct the PT kernels as building blocks of statistical calculations, from w
Predicting the spatial distribution of objects as a function of cosmology is an essential ingredient for the exploitation of future galaxy surveys. In this paper we show that a specially-designed suite of gravity-only simulations together with cosmol
