Recent advances in instrumentation, particularly at the Anglo-Australian Telescope, have greatly increased the number of quaSi-stellar objects (QSOs) identified at faint magnitudes (B> 20 mag) and high redshifts (z> 2.2). As a result, significant progress has been made in the study of QSO clustering and evolution in the last two to three years. This paper reviews the results obtained and discusses their relevance to models of galaxy formation and the large-scale structure of the universe.

Processes of the formation and the evolution of the large-scale structure are discussed in the framework of unstable dark matter models. Six numerical models are presented. The projected distribution of simulated galaxies on the sky, wedge diagrams, correlation functions and the mean linear scale of voids are presented. Physical background of the hypothesis of unstable particles and possible observational tests are discussed. The level of the microwave background fluctuations is estimated analytically. Special attention is given to late stage of supercluster evolution and galaxy formation.

A review of recent results on large-scale structure and galaxy formation in a model with hot dark matter and cosmic strings is given. With cosmic strings seeding perturbations, many of the arguments against hot dark matter disappear. It is shown that spherical accretion about loops leads to dark matter haloes with flat velocity rotation curves. Velocity perturbations due to wakes behind long, moving strings lead to a network of planar overdensities with a distinguished scale of slightly less than 40×40 Mpc2. If the mass per unit length μ exceeds a certain bound, then the wakes become nonlinear by the present time. In this case, their thickness can be calculated.

AbstractThis paper outlines the science case for line-intensity mapping with a space-borne instrument targeting the sub-millimeter (microwaves) to the far-infrared (FIR) wavelength range. Our goal is to observe and characterize the large-scale structure in the Universe from present times to the high redshift Epoch of Reionization. This is essential to constrain the cosmology of our Universe and form a better understanding of various mechanisms that drive galaxy formation and evolution. The proposed frequency range would make it possible to probe important metal cooling lines such as [CII] up to very high redshift as well as a large number of rotational lines of the CO molecule. These can be used to trace molecular gas and dust evolution and constrain the buildup in both the cosmic star formation rate density and the cosmic infrared background (CIB). Moreover, surveys at the highest frequencies will detect FIR lines which are used as diagnostics of galaxies and AGN. Tomography of these lines over a wide redshift range will enable invaluable measurements of the cosmic expansion history at epochs inaccessible to other methods, competitive constraints on the parameters of the standard model of cosmology, and numerous tests of dark matter, dark energy, modified gravity and inflation. To reach these goals, large-scale structure must be mapped over a wide range in frequency to trace its time evolution and the surveyed area needs to be very large to beat cosmic variance. Only a space-borne mission can properly meet these requirements.
