Using Voids to Unscreen Modified Gravity (2017)
Journal Article
Falck, B., Koyama, K., Zhao, G., & Cautun, M. (2018). Using Voids to Unscreen Modified Gravity. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 475(3), 3262-3272. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stx3288

The Vainshtein mechanism, present in many models of gravity, is very effective at screening dark matter halos such that the fifth force is negligible and general relativity is recovered within their Vainshtein radii. Vainshtein screening is independe... Read More about Using Voids to Unscreen Modified Gravity.

Tracing the cosmic web (2017)
Journal Article
Libeskind, N. I., van de Weygaert, R., Cautun, M., Falck, B., Tempel, E., Abel, T., …Yepes, G. (2017). Tracing the cosmic web. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 473(1), 1195-1217. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stx1976

The cosmic web is one of the most striking features of the distribution of galaxies and dark matter on the largest scales in the Universe. It is composed of dense regions packed full of galaxies, long filamentary bridges, flattened sheets and vast lo... Read More about Tracing the cosmic web.

The tangential velocity excess of the Milky Way satellites (2017)
Journal Article
Cautun, M., & Frenk, C. S. (2017). The tangential velocity excess of the Milky Way satellites. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 468(1), L41-L45. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnrasl/slx025

We estimate the systemic orbital kinematics of the Milky Way classical satellites and compare them with predictions from the Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) model derived from a semi-analytical galaxy formation model applied to high-resolution cosmological...
