TL;DR: In this article, the authors used high-resolution N-body simulations to study the equilibrium density profiles of dark matter halos in hierarchically clustering universes, and they found that all such profiles have the same shape, independent of the halo mass, the initial density fluctuation spectrum, and the values of the cosmological parameters.

TL;DR: In this article, high-resolution N-body simulations show that the density profiles of dark matter halos formed in the standard CDM cosmogony can be fit accurately by scaling a simple universal profile.

TL;DR: It is shown that baryon-induced features in the initial conditions of the Universe are reflected in distorted form in the low-redshift galaxy distribution, an effect that can be used to constrain the nature of dark energy with future generations of observational surveys of galaxies.

TL;DR: In this article, the results of numerical simulations of nonlinear gravitational clustering in universes dominated by weakly interacting, cold dark matter are presented and the evolution of the fundamental statistical properties of the models is described and their comparability with observation is discussed.

TL;DR: The Virgo Consortium's EAGLE project as discussed by the authors is a suite of hydrodynamical simulations that follow the formation of galaxies and black holes in representative volumes, where thermal energy is injected into the gas, allowing winds to develop without predetermined speed or mass loading factors.
