CosmoLattice: A modern code for lattice simulations of scalar and gauge field dynamics in an expanding universe

Daniel Garcia Figueroa, Adrien Florio, Wessel Valkenburg

This paper describes CosmoGattice, a modern package for lattice simulations of the dynamics of interacting scalar and gauge fields in an expanding universe. CosmoGattice incorporates a series of features that makes it very versatile and powerful: i) it is ...

The art of simulating the early universe. Part I. Integration techniques and canonical cases

Daniel Garcia Figueroa, Adrien Florio, Wessel Valkenburg

We present a comprehensive discussion on lattice techniques for the simulation of scalar and gauge field dynamics in an expanding universe. After reviewing the continuum formulation of scalar and gauge field interactions in Minkowski and FLRW backgrounds, ...

21-cm observations and warm dark matter models

Alexey Boyarsky, Oleg Ruchayskiy, Wessel Valkenburg

Observations of the redshifted 21-cm signal (in absorption or emission) allow us to peek into the epoch of the "Dark Ages" and the onset of reionization. These data can provide a novel way to learn about the nature of dark matter, in particular, about the ...

Exploiting flux ratio anomalies to probe warm dark matter in future large-scale surveys

Frédéric Courbin, David Richard Harvey, Amélie Tamone, Alexey Boyarsky, Wessel Valkenburg

Flux ratio anomalies in strong gravitationally lensed quasars constitute a unique way to probe the abundance of non-luminous dark matter haloes, and hence the nature of dark matter. In this paper, we identify double-imaged quasars as a statistically effici ...
