宇宙学扰动能产生早期宇宙涡旋吗?

Can cosmological perturbations produce early universe vorticity?

Adam J. Christopherson, Karim A. Malik

摘要:

在这篇特刊文章中,我们根据GR19会议B5(理论和数学宇宙学)的同名谈话,回顾了使用宇宙学扰动理论的宇宙学中的涡度产生情况。我们发现,而在线性阶涡度演化方程没有源项的情况下,各向异性应力,在二阶涡度是由熵梯度和能量密度扰动。然后,我们提出了一些估计的大小和尺度依赖的涡度功率谱使用简单的输入功率谱的能量密度和熵扰动。最后,我们关闭与未来工作的可能方向,其次是一些提示对观测的重要性,这样产生的涡度,和原始磁场产生的可能性。

英文摘要:

In this special issue article, based on the talk with the same title in session B5 (Theoretical and Mathematical Cosmology) at GR19, we review the case of vorticity generation in cosmology using cosmological perturbation theory. We show that, while at linear order the vorticity evolution equation has no source term in the absence of anisotropic stress, at second order vorticity is sourced by gradients in entropy and energy density perturbations. We then present some estimates for the magnitude and scale dependence of the vorticity power spectrum using simple input power spectra for the energy density and entropy perturbations. Finally, we close with possible directions for future work followed by some hints toward the observational importance of the vorticity so generated, and the possibility of primordial magnetic field generation.
