Abstract
Cosmological hydro-dynamical simulations to study the growth ofcosmic structures in various different dark energy scenarios. We want to quantify the effects of different dark energy models on theappearance of the large scale structure and galaxy clusters and on theirobservational properties (e.g. the X-ray scaling relations and their redshift evolution, the internal structure of clusters, etc.) In particular, we want to study following 11 models:WMAP (standard cosmological constant)RP (Peebles and Ratra 2002)SUGRA ("Super Gravity" models)EQ (2x, extended quintessence with 2 different parameters) CQ (2x, coupled quintessence with 2 different parameters)EDE (2x, early dark energy with 2 different parameters)OscDE (2x, oscillating dark energy with 2 different parameters)
