一个来自变色龙的自然宇宙学常数

A natural cosmological constant from chameleons

Horatiu Nastase, Amanda Weltman

摘要:

我们提出了一个简单的模型,其中有效的宇宙学常数出现在变色龙标量场。对于Kachru-Kallosh-Linde-Trivedi(KKLT)启发的势形式和与局部密度耦合的特定变色龙,近似恒定的标量场势的斑块聚集在密度高于一定值的物质区域周围,在大尺度上产生宇宙学常数的效果。这种构造同时解决了宇宙学常数问题(为什么$Λ$如此之小,但又不为零)和巧合问题(为什么$Λ$与现在的物质密度相当)。

英文摘要:

We present a simple model where the effective cosmological constant appears from chameleon scalar fields. For a Kachru-Kallosh-Linde-Trivedi (KKLT)-inspired form of the potential and a particular chameleon coupling to the local density, patches of approximately constant scalar field potential cluster around regions of matter with density above a certain value, generating the effect of a cosmological constant on large scales. This construction addresses both the cosmological constant problem (why $Λ$ is so small, yet nonzero) and the coincidence problem (why $Λ$ is comparable to the matter density now).
