We report results from high-resolution particle-mesb (PM) N-body simul
ations of structure formation in an OMEGA = 2 cosmological model with
a mixture of cold plus hot dark matter (C + HDM) having OMEGA(cold) =
0.6, OMEGA(v) = 0.3, and OMEGA(baryon) = 0.1. We present analytic fits
to the C+HDM power spectra for both cold and hot (neutrino) component
s, which provide initial conditions for our nonlinear simulations. In
order to sample the neutrino velocities adequately, these simulations
included 6 times as many neutrino particles as cold particles. Our sim
ulations boxes were 14, 50, and 200 Mpc cubes (with H-0 = 50 km s-1 Mp
c-1); we also did comparison simulations for cold dark matter (CDM) in
a 50 Mpc box. C+HDM with linear bias factor b = 1.5 is consistent bot
h with the COBE data and with the galaxy correlations we calculate. We
find the number of halos as a function of mass and redshift in our si
mulations; our results for both CDM and C+HDM are well fitted by a Pre
ss-Schechter model. The number density of galaxy-mass halos is smaller
than for CDM, especially at redshift z > 2, but the numbers of cluste
r-mass halos are comparable. We also find that on galaxy scales the ne
utrino velocities and flatter power spectrum in C+HDM result in galaxy
pairwise velocities that are in good agreement with the data, and abo
ut 30% smaller than in CDM with the same biasing factor. On scales of
several tens of megaparsecs, the C+HDM streaming velocities are consid
erably larger than CDM. As a result, the '' cosmic Mach number '' in C
+ HDM is about a factor of 2 larger than in CDM, and probably in bett
er agreement with observations. Thus C + HDM looks promising as a mode
l of structure formation. The presence of a hot component requires the
introduction of a single additional parameter beyond standard CDM-the
light neutrino mass or, equivalently, OMEGA(v)-and allows the model t
o fit essentially all the available cosmological data remarkably well.
The tau neutrino is predicted to have a mass of about 7 eV, compatibl
e with the MSW explanation of the solar neutrino data together with a
long-popular particle physics model. We outline a number of additional
tests to which the C + HDM model should be subjected.
