$f(T)$理论与变化的精细结构常数

$f(T)$ Theories and Varying Fine Structure Constant

Hao Wei, Xiao-Peng Ma, Hao-Yu Qi

摘要:

与$f(R)$理论类似,最近提出了一种新的修正引力理论,即所谓的$f(T)$理论,以驱动当前的加速膨胀而不调用暗能量。在目前的工作中,通过扩展Bisabr的思想,我们试图约束$f(T)$理论与变化的精细结构“常数”,$α\equiv e^2/\hbar c$。我们发现观测$Δα/α$数据对$f(T)$理论的约束是非常严重的。事实上,它们使得$f(T)$理论与$Λ$ CDM模型几乎没有区别。

英文摘要:

In analogy to $f(R)$ theory, recently a new modified gravity theory, namely the so-called $f(T)$ theory, has been proposed to drive the current accelerated expansion without invoking dark energy. In the present work, by extending Bisabr's idea, we try to constrain $f(T)$ theories with the varying fine structure "constant", $α\equiv e^2/\hbar c$. We find that the constraints on $f(T)$ theories from the observational $Δα/α$ data are very severe. In fact, they make $f(T)$ theories almost indistinguishable from $Λ$CDM model.
