Testing the imprint of non-standard cosmologies on void profiles using Monte Carlo random walks

Understand

Using a Monte Carlo random walks of a log-normal distribution, we show how to qualitatively study void properties for non-standard cosmologies.

• We apply this method to an f(R) modified gravity model and recover the N-body simulation results of (Achitouv et al.
• 2016) for the void profiles and their deviation from GR.
• This method can potentially be extended to study other properties of the large scale structures such as the abundance of voids or overdense environments.
