Structure Formation in Modified Gravity Scenarios
@article{Brax2012StructureFI, title={Structure Formation in Modified Gravity Scenarios}, author={Philippe Brax and Patrick Valageas}, journal={Physical Review D}, year={2012}, volume={86}, pages={063512} }
We study the growth of structures in modified gravity models where the Poisson equation and the relationship between the two Newtonian potentials are modified by explicit functions of space and time. This parameterisation applies to the $f(R)$ models and more generally to screened modified gravity models. We investigate the linear and weakly nonlinear regimes using the "standard" perturbative approach and a resummation technique, while we use the spherical dynamics to go beyond low-order…

We investigate whether the late-time (at $z\leq 100$) velocity dispersion expected in Warm Dark Matter scenarios could have some effect on the cosmic web (i.e., outside of virialized halos). We…
