Statistical Physics for Cosmic Structures
Luciano Pietronero, Andrea Gabrielli, Francesco Sylos Labini
Ideas of Statistical Physics are very relevant for cosmic structures especially considering that the field is undergoing a period of exceptional development with many new data appe…
The Glass-like Universe: Real-space correlation properties of standard cosmological models
Andrea Gabrielli, Michael Joyce, Francesco Sylos Labini
After reviewing the basic relevant properties of stationary stochastic processes (SSP), defining basic terms and quantities, we discuss the properties of the so-called Harrison-Zel…
On the problem of initial conditions in cosmological N-body simulations
Thierry Baertschiger, Francesco Sylos Labini
Cosmological N-body simulations aim to calculate the non-linear gravitational growth of structures via particle dynamics. A crucial problem concerns the setting-up of the initial p…
Correlation and clustering
Francesco Sylos Labini, Andrea Gabrielli
In this lecture we clarify the basic difference between the correlation properties for systems characterized by small or large fluctuations. The concepts of correlation length, hom…
