Constraints on Models with a Break in the Primordial Power Spectrum

Hong Li, Jun-Qing Xia, Robert Brandenberger, Xinmin Zhang

摘要:

“物质反弹”方案的一个特征是,在一个特征尺度下,功率谱中的一个中断,低于该特征尺度,谱指数从n = 1变为n = 3,该方案是宇宙膨胀的替代方案,用于产生大尺度上原始绝热波动的尺度不变谱。我们研究的约束条件,目前的宇宙学数据放置在这样一个突破的位置,更一般的突破的位置和斜率在长度尺度小于突破。我们使用的观测数据包括WMAP五年数据集(WMAP 5),来自BOOMERanG、CBI、VSA和ACBAR的其他CMB数据,来自斯隆数字巡天(SDSS,他们的发光红色星系样本)的大尺度结构数据,Ia型超新星数据(“联盟”汇编),以及斯隆数字巡天莱曼-α森林功率谱(Lyα)数据。我们采用马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗方法来约束的原始功率谱的物质反弹模型的动机的功能。我们给出了一个上限的长度尺度上的频谱中发生的突破。

英文摘要:

One of the characteristics of the "Matter Bounce" scenario, an alternative to cosmological inflation for producing a scale-invariant spectrum of primordial adiabatic fluctuations on large scales, is a break in the power spectrum at a characteristic scale, below which the spectral index changes from n = 1 to n = 3. We study the constraints which current cosmological data place on the location of such a break, and more generally on the position of the break and the slope at length scales smaller than the break. The observational data we use include the WMAP five-year data set (WMAP5), other CMB data from BOOMERanG, CBI, VSA, and ACBAR, large-scale structure data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS, their luminous red galaxies sample), Type Ia Supernovae data (the "Union" compilation), and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Lyman-αforest power spectrum (Lyα) data. We employ the Markov Chain Monte Carlo method to constrain the features in the primordial power spectrum which are motivated by the matter bounce model. We give an upper limit on the length scale where the break in the spectrum occurs.
