We present a detailed study of the collapse of a spherical matter overdensity and the non-linear growth of large scale structures in the Galileon ghost condensate (GGC) model. This model is an extension of the cubic covariant Galileon (G3) which includes a field derivative of type $( abla_muphi abla^muphi)^2$ in the Lagrangian. We find that the cubic term activates the modifications in the main physical quantities whose time evolution is then strongly affected by the additional term. Indeed, the GGC model shows largely mitigated effects in the linearised critical density contrast, non-linear effective gravitational coupling and the virial overdensity with respect to G3 but still preserves peculiar features with respect to the standard $Lambda$CDM cosmological model, e.g. both the linear critical density contrast and the virial overdensity are larger than those in $Lambda$CDM. The results of the spherical collapse model are then used to predict the evolution of the halo mass function, non-linear matter and lensing power spectra. While at low masses the GGC model presents about 10% fewer objects with respect to $Lambda$CDM, at higher masses for $z>0$ it predicts 10% ($z=0.5$)-20% ($z=1$) more objects per comoving volume. Using a phenomenological approach to include the screening effect in the matter power spectrum, we show that the difference induced by the modifications of gravity are strongly dependent on the screening scale and that differences can be up to 20% with respect to $Lambda$CDM. These differences translate to the lensing power spectrum where qualitatively the largest differences with respect to the standard cosmological model are for $ell<10^3$. Depending on the screening scale, they can be up to 25% on larger angular scales and then decrease for growing $ell$. These results are obtained for the best fit parameters from linear cosmological data for each model.

We study, for the first time, how shear and angular momentum modify typical parameters of the spherical collapse model, in dark energy dominated universes. In particular, we study the linear density threshold for collapse $delta_mathrm{c}$ and the vi
rial overdensity $Delta_mathrm{V}$, for several dark-energy models and its influence on the cumulative mass function. The equations of the spherical collapse are those obtained in Pace et al. (2010), who used the fully nonlinear differential equation for the evolution of the density contrast derived from Newtonian hydrodynamics, and assumed that dark energy is present only at the background level. With the introduction of the shear and rotation terms, the parameters of the spherical collapse model are now mass-dependant. The results of the paper show, as expected, that the new terms considered in the spherical collapse model oppose the collapse of perturbations on galactic scale giving rise to higher values of the linear overdensity parameter with respect to the non-rotating case. We find a similar effect also for the virial overdensity parameter. For what concerns the mass function, we find that its high mass tail is suppressed, while the low mass tail is slightly affected except in some cases, e.g. the Chaplygin gas case.
We study the gravitational collapse of an overdensity of nonrelativistic matter under the action of gravity and a chameleon scalar field. We show that the spherical collapse model is modified by the presence of a chameleon field. In particular, we fi
nd that even though the chameleon effects can be potentially large at small scales, for a large enough initial size of the inhomogeneity the collapsing region possesses a thin shell that shields the modification of gravity induced by the chameleon field, recovering the standard gravity results. We analyse the behaviour of a collapsing shell in a cosmological setting in the presence of a thin shell and find that, in contrast to the usual case, the critical density for collapse depends on the initial comoving size of the inhomogeneity.
Critical overdensity $delta_c$ is a key concept in estimating the number count of halos for different redshift and halo-mass bins, and therefore, it is a powerful tool to compare cosmological models to observations. There are currently two different
prescriptions in the literature for its calculation, namely, the differential-radius and the constant-infinity methods. In this work we show that the latter yields precise results {it only} if we are careful in the definition of the so-called numerical infinities. Although the subtleties we point out are crucial ingredients for an accurate determination of $delta_c$ both in general relativity and in any other gravity theory, we focus on $f(R)$ modified-gravity models in the metric approach; in particular, we use the so-called large ($F=1/3$) and small-field ($F=0$) limits. For both of them, we calculate the relative errors (between our method and the others) in the critical density $delta_c$, in the comoving number density of halos per logarithmic mass interval $n_{ln M}$ and in the number of clusters at a given redshift in a given mass bin $N_{rm bin}$, as functions of the redshift. We have also derived an analytical expression for the density contrast in the linear regime as a function of the collapse redshift $z_c$ and $Omega_{m0}$ for any $F$.
The influence of considering a generalized dark matter (GDM) model, which allows for a non-pressure-less dark matter and a non-vanishing sound speed in the non-linear spherical collapse model is discussed for the Einstein-de Sitter-like (EdSGDM) and
$Lambda$GDM models. By assuming that the vacuum component responsible for the accelerated expansion of the Universe is not clustering and therefore behaving similarly to the cosmological constant $Lambda$, we show how the change in the GDM characteristic parameters affects the linear density threshold for collapse of the non-relativistic component ($delta_{rm c}$) and its virial overdensity ($Delta_{rm V}$). We found that the generalized dark matter equation of state parameter $w_{rm gdm}$ is responsible for lower values of the linear overdensity parameter as compared to the standard spherical collapse model and that this effect is much stronger than the one induced by a change in the generalized dark matter sound speed $c^2_{rm s, gdm}$. We also found that the virial overdensity is only slightly affected and mostly sensitive to the generalized dark matter equation of state parameter $w_{rm gdm}$. These effects could be relatively enhanced for lower values of the matter density. Finally, we found that the effects of the additional physics on $delta_{rm c}$ and $Delta_{rm V}$, when translated to non-linear observables such as the halo mass function, induce an overall deviation of about 40% with respect to the standard $Lambda$CDM model at late times for high mass objects. However, within the current linear constraints for $c^2_{rm s, gdm}$ and $w_{rm gdm}$, we found that these changes are the consequence of properly taking into account the correct linear matter power spectrum for the GDM model while the effects coming from modifications in the spherical collapse model remain negligible.
Motivated by observations of supernova SN 1987A, various authors have simulated Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instabilities in the envelopes of core collapse supernovae (for a review, see Mueller 1998). The non-radial motion found in these simulations qualita
tively agreed with observations in SN 1987A, but failed to explain the extent of mixing of newly synthesized 56Ni quantitatively. Here we present results of a 2D hydrodynamic simulation which re-addresses this failure and covers the entire evolution of the first 5 hours after core bounce.
