Abstract

We investigate the formation of large-scale structure by gravitational instability from Gaussian and non-Gaussian initial conditions, using cosmological N-body simulations. Our non-Gaussian models are characterized by a one-point probability distribution, P(δ), with either a long tail of positive fluctuations (skew-positive), a long tail of negative fluctuations (skew-negative), or extended tails of both positive and negative fluctuations (broad).
