The spherical collapse model in a universe with cosmological constant

Abstract

We generalize the spherical collapse model for the formation of dark matter halos to apply in a universe with arbitrary positive cosmological constant. We calculate the critical condition for collapse of an overdense region and give exact values of the characteristic densities and redshifts of its evolution.
