类星体偏振矢量的大尺度相干取向:用类轴子粒子解释

Large-scale coherent orientations of quasar polarisation vectors: interpretation in terms of axion-like particles

A. Payez, D. Hutsemekers, J. R. Cudell

摘要:

综述了在某些天区观测到的类星体偏振矢量在宇宙学距离上的红移相关相干取向。基于355个测量类星体的高质量样本,这一观测似乎推断出存在一种新的影响光在如此遥远距离上传播的效应。在文献中提出了一个解决方案,在近无质量的类轴子粒子和它的现状进行了讨论。

英文摘要:

The observation of redshift-dependent coherent orientations of quasar polarisation vectors over cosmological distances in some regions of the sky is reviewed. Based on a good-quality sample of 355 measured quasars, this observation seems to infer the existence of a new effect acting on light propagation on such huge distances. A solution in terms of nearly massless axion-like particles has been proposed in the literature and its current status is discussed.
