The caustic skeleton is a parameter-free and mathematically rigorous formalism for tracing the hierarchical formation history of the multiscale cosmic web from the singularities in the underlying dark matter flow. In the present study, we explicitly use the multistreaming nature of the cosmic mass distribution to…

'Marius Cautun'] Abstract. We describe the Bayesian barcode formalism that has been designed towards the reconstruction of the Cosmic Web in a given volume on the basis of the sampled galaxy cluster distribution. Based on the realization that the massive compact clusters are responsible for the major share of the large…

This study concerns an inventory of the gravitational force and tidal field induced by filaments, walls, cluster nodes and voids on Megaparsec scales and how they assemble and shape the Cosmic Web. The study is based on a NPart = 5123 ΛCDM dark matter only N-body simulation in a (300ℎ −1 Mpc)3 box at = 0. We invoke the…

'Rien van de Weygaert'] For over 20 years, the term ‘cosmic web’ has guided our understanding of the large-scale arrangement of matter in the cosmos, accurately evoking the concept of a network of galaxies linked by filaments. But the physical correspondence between the cosmic web and structural engineering or textile…

The cosmic web (the arrangement of matter in the universe), spider's webs, and origami tessellations are linked by their geometry (specifically, of sectional-Voronoi tessellations). This motivates origami and textile artistic representations of the cosmic web. It also relates to the scientific insights origami can…

Fungal mycelium networks are large scale biological networks along which nutrients, metabolites flow. Recently, we discovered a rich spectrum of electrical activity in mycelium networks, including action-potential spikes and trains of spikes. Reasoning by analogy with animals and plants, where travelling patterns of…

'A Flanagan' 'J Teague' 'R Wooster' 'P A Futreal' 'M R Stratton'] The Catalogue Of Somatic Mutations In Cancer (COSMIC) database and web site was developed to preserve somatic mutation data and share it with the community. Over the past 25 years, approximately 350 cancer genes have been identified, of which 311 are…

A novel method allowing to compute density, velocity and other fields in cosmological N–body simulations with unprecedentedly high spatial resolution is described. It is based on the tessellation of the three-dimensional manifold representing cold dark matter in six-dimensional phase space. The density, velocity and…

We have recently argued that the expansion of the Universe is compatible not only with standard homogeneity, but also with fractal homogeneity in a hierarchical fractal cosmology. In this work we further test this paradigm using the galactic distances obtained from the Updated CfA Redshift Catalogs. We confirm that the…

In the electron Born self-energy (eBse) model, free electrons are of finite-size and possess both a rest mass, m*e, as well as, a Born mass, meB = 74,000 m**e. The Born mass, which originates from the energy contained within the electric field that surrounds a finite-sized electron, serves as a Dark Matter (DM)…
