用更多的宇宙学数据对抗广义相对论

Confronting General Relativity with Further Cosmological Data

Scott F. Daniel, Eric V. Linder

摘要:

偏离广义相对论,以解释宇宙加速一般都有时间和尺度依赖的签名在宇宙学数据。我们扩展了我们以前的工作,通过调查模型独立的引力偏差在箱的红移和长度尺度,结合进一步的宇宙学探测,如温度星系和星系星系的互相关,并通过检查偏差之间的相关性。用马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗似然法分析了模型独立参数对当前数据的拟合,结果表明,在低红移时,广义相对论在99%置信水平上偏离了最佳拟合。我们跟踪这两个不同的CFHTLS弱透镜数据集的属性,并证明COSMOS弱透镜数据不显示这样的偏差。即将到来的星系调查数据将大大提高测试时间和尺度相关的引力扩展的能力,我们计算了BigBOSS星系红移调查可能带来的限制。

英文摘要:

Deviations from general relativity in order to explain cosmic acceleration generically have both time and scale dependent signatures in cosmological data. We extend our previous work by investigating model independent gravitational deviations in bins of redshift and length scale, by incorporating further cosmological probes such as temperature-galaxy and galaxy-galaxy cross-correlations, and by examining correlations between deviations. Markov Chain Monte Carlo likelihood analysis of the model independent parameters fitting current data indicates that at low redshift general relativity deviates from the best fit at the 99% confidence level. We trace this to two different properties of the CFHTLS weak lensing data set and demonstrate that COSMOS weak lensing data does not show such deviation. Upcoming galaxy survey data will greatly improve the ability to test time and scale dependent extensions to gravity and we calculate the constraints that the BigBOSS galaxy redshift survey could enable.
