    Globular Clusters as a Test for Gravity in the Weak Acceleration Regime
    Non-baryonic Dark Matter (DM) appears in galaxies and other cosmic structures when and only when the acceleration of gravity, as computed considering only...

    Globular clusters systems and their host dark matter halos
    In the Λ-CDM galaxy formation paradigm, the star formation history of a galaxy is coupled to the total mass of its dark matter halo through processes like...

    Gravitational Lensing as Cosmological Tools
    Gravitational lensing is a powerful astrophysical tool which allow us to studythe dark sector of the universe. Some of these applications include from thestudy...

    Gravitational waves from galaxy encounters
    We discuss the emission of gravitational radiation produced in encounters of dark matter galactic halos. To this aim we perform a number of numerical...

    Growing a `cosmic beast': observations and simulations of MACS J0717.5+3745
    We present a gravitational lensing and X-ray analysis of a massive galaxy cluster and its surroundings. The core of MACS J0717.5+3745 (M(R

    Halo concentrations in the standard Λ cold dark matter cosmology
    We study the concentration of dark matter haloes and its evolution in N-body simulations of the standard Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmology. The results...

    High-velocity clouds as dark matter in the Local Group
    The High-Velocity Clouds (HVCs) observed in the Galactic neighbourhood, have been proposed to be remnants of the formation of the galaxies in the Local Group...
