Comparing the VVF of galaxies in the GAMA survey withthat of abundance matched CDM (sub)haloes tentatively reveals environmental effectsin GAMA beyond halo mass (modulo unmodelled satellite properties).

Our summary statistics sensitively probeprimordial features such as small-scale oscillations in the initial matter power spectrum(as arise in models involving collisional effects in the dark sector), while being largelyinsensitive to a truncation of initial power (as in warm dark matter models). Using convenient summary statistics– the width, median and a low percentile of the VVF as functions of average tracernumber density – we explore these effects for tracer populations in a suite of N -bodysimulations of a range of dark matter models.

MMNRAS, 1–20 (0000) Preprint Compiled using MNRAS L A TEX style file v3.0 Our exploratory analysis thus paves the way for using the VVF as a new probe of galaxy evolution physics as well as the nature of dark matter and dark energy.

Typeset mathematics contained inline (within) with the text of a paragraph needs to take less space than the same math typeset outside the paragraph text as standalone, display-style, material.We study the Voronoi volume function (VVF) - the distribution of cell volumes (or inverse local number density) in the Voronoi tessellation of any set of cosmological tracers (galaxies/haloes).
