Dark matter self-interactions and small scale structure
We review theories of dark matter (DM) beyond the collisionless paradigm, known as self-
interacting dark matter (SIDM), and their observable implications for astrophysical structure …

The impact of baryonic physics on the structure of dark matter haloes: the view from the FIRE cosmological simulations
We study the distribution of cold dark matter (CDM) in cosmological simulations from the

Small scale problems of the ΛCDM model: a short review
A Del Popolo, M Le Delliou - Galaxies, 2017 - mdpi.com
The ΛCDM model, or concordance cosmology, as it is often called, is a paradigm at its
maturity. It is clearly able to describe the universe at large scale, even if some issues remain …
