Spherical collapse model in agegraphic dark energy cosmologies

Abstract

Under the commonly used spherical collapse model, we study how dark energy affects the growth of large scale structures of the Universe in the context of agegraphic dark energy models. The dynamics of the spherical collapse of dark matter halos in nonlinear regimes is determined by the properties of the dark energy model. We show that the main parameters of the spherical collapse model are directly affected by the evolution of dark energy in the agegraphic dark energy models. We compute the spherical collapse quantities for different values of agegraphic model parameter $\alpha$ in two different scenarios: first, when dark energy does not exhibit fluctuations on cluster scales, and second, when dark energy inside the overdense region collapses similar to dark matter. Using the Sheth-Tormen and Reed mass functions, we investigate the abundance of dark matter halos in the framework of agegraphic dark energy cosmologies. The model parameter $\alpha$ is a crucial parameter in order to count the abundance of dark matter halos. Specifically, the present analysis suggests that the agegraphic dark energy model with bigger (smaller) value of $\alpha$ predicts less (more) virialized halos with respect to that of $\Lambda$CDM cosmology. We also show that in agegraphic dark energy models, the number of halos strongly depends on clustered or uniformed distributions of dark energy.Comment: 14 pages, 7 figures.

Can holographic dark energy models fit the observational data?

“…For both of these approaches, we refer the reader to follow our previous articles [31,67,83] in which we have provided the basic differential equations which describe the evolution of matter and DE perturbations. Concerning the initial conditions, we use those provided by [121] [see also 67,68]. In fact using these initial conditions we verify that matter perturbations always stay in the linear regime.…”

“…In fact, DE not only accelerates the expansion rate of the universe but also changes the evolution of matter perturbations and consequently the formation epochs of large scale structures of the universe [52][53][54]. Moreover, in the case of dynamical DE models, in which the EoS parameter evolves with cosmic time, the growth of large scale structures are also affected by perturbations of DE [31,[55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68]. In the context of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) analysis, we setup an extended formalism in which the background expansion data are joined with the growth rate data to put tight constraints on the parameters of HDE model and evaluate it against combined observational data [for similar studies, see [69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83].…”
