宇宙正在加速。我们需要一个新的质量标准吗?

The universe is accelerating. Do we need a new mass scale?

Savvas Nesseris, Federico Piazza, Shinji Tsujikawa

摘要:

我们试图解决定量的问题是否需要一个新的质量,以适应目前的超新星数据。为此目的,我们考虑一个红外修正的重力,不包含任何新的质量尺度,但系统的subleading校正成比例的曲率。这些修正与最近通过在存在标量场的Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker宇宙中实施“超强等价原理”(USEP)而得出的修正是同一类型的。两个同向运动观测者之间的距离被这些修正所改变,并且在宇宙演化过程中的任何时刻,高红移观测都受到影响。虽然排除了USEP预测的参数的具体值,但参数空间的某些区域非常适合SnIa数据。这就提供了一种有趣的可能性来解释今天明显的宇宙加速,而不需要引入暗能量成分或新的质量尺度。

英文摘要:

We try to address quantitatively the question whether a new mass is needed to fit current supernovae data. For this purpose, we consider an infra-red modification of gravity that does not contain any new mass scale but systematic subleading corrections proportional to the curvature. The modifications are of the same type as the one recently derived by enforcing the "Ultra Strong Equivalence Principle" (USEP) upon a Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker universe in the presence of a scalar field. The distance between two comoving observers is altered by these corrections and the observations at high redshift affected at any time during the cosmic evolution. While the specific values of the parameters predicted by USEP are ruled out, there are regions of parameter space that fit SnIa data very well. This allows an interesting possibility to explain the apparent cosmic acceleration today without introducing either a dark energy component or a new mass scale.
