修正引力对弱透镜效应的影响

The effect of modified gravity on weak lensing

Shinji Tsujikawa, Takayuki Tatekawa

摘要:

我们研究了修正引力对一类标量张量理论中弱透镜效应的影响,其中包括$f(R)$引力作为特例。这些模型的目的是满足当地的重力约束,在一个地区的高曲率有一个大的标量场质量。这些模型中的物质密度扰动在小红移处增强,因为存在耦合$Q$,它表征了暗能量和非相对论物质之间的强度。我们计算收敛功率谱的弱透镜数值和表明,谱指数和振幅的谱在线性政权可以显着修改相比,$Λ$ CDM模型的大值$|Q|$的顺序的统一。因此弱透镜效应提供了一个强有力的工具来约束包括$f(R)$引力在内的大耦合标量-张量模型。

英文摘要:

We study the effect of modified gravity on weak lensing in a class of scalar-tensor theory that includes $f(R)$ gravity as a special case. These models are designed to satisfy local gravity constraints by having a large scalar-field mass in a region of high curvature. Matter density perturbations in these models are enhanced at small redshifts because of the presence of a coupling $Q$ that characterizes the strength between dark energy and non-relativistic matter. We compute a convergence power spectrum of weak lensing numerically and show that the spectral index and the amplitude of the spectrum in the linear regime can be significantly modified compared to the $Λ$CDM model for large values of $|Q|$ of the order of unity. Thus weak lensing provides a powerful tool to constrain such large coupling scalar-tensor models including $f(R)$ gravity.
