The Cauchy problem for the Diffusive-Vlasov-Enskog equations
… term of Fokker-Planck type with or without dynamical friction forces. The Cauchy problem for the Diffusive-Vlasov-Poisson-Enskog equation (DVE) and the Cauchy problem for the Fokker-Planck-Vlasov-Poisson-Enskog equation (FPVE) are addressed.

The structure and evolution of dark matter halos and their implications for cosmology
… and fundamental physical processes like dynamical friction. Apart from the density profile I also study the shapes of halos and how to measure them using three-point galaxy statistics and finally I study the evolution of substructure in dark matter halos and its implication for galaxy …

Diffusion of light adsorbates on transition metal surfaces
… the HeSE technique and describes the relevant dynamical models and statistical methods used to interpret data in later chapters. The performance of the ionizing detector is analysed, with a focus on the signal-to-noise ratio. In Chapter 3 expressions for the classical intermediate scattering …

The Effect of the Large Magellanic Cloud on the Dark Matter Halo of the Milky Way
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), the most massive satellite of the Milky Way(MW), is perturbing the dynamics and equilibrium of the MW. Understanding the nature and time evolution of these perturbations remains one of the most important challenges to the interpretation of 6D phase space …

Exploring gravity
Gravitation is the dominant influence in most astrophysical interactions. Weak-field interactions have been extensively studied, but the strong-field regime remains largely unexplored. Gravitational waves (GWs) are an excellent means of accessing strong-field regions. We investigate what we can …
