In "L. Campanelli, arXiv:1304.6534 [astro-ph.CO]", we have shown that cosmic magnetic fields are a natural consequence of inflation. Our results have been criticized in the recent comment "R. Durrer, G. Marozzi and M. Rinaldi, arXiv:1305.3192 [astro-ph.CO]." We show that the arguments raised against the validity of our results are physically and mathematically unfounded.
We show that a recent purported correction to the effects of Doppler boosting of flux density in an erstwhile published formula for calculating the observer's motion from the cosmic radio dipole in sky brightness is erroneous. The thereby computed downward correction in the estimated magnitude for the observer's motion needs to be scrapped and the results derived therefore need to be reverted back to their erstwhile values.
In a recent paper [J. Martin and V. Vennin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 080402 (2020)] it was argued that, for most natural choices, the direct application of the continuous spontaneous localization (CSL) theory to the inflationary case, as it is known to work in non-relativistic laboratory situations, is ruled out by cosmological observational data, thus casting a shadow on models based on CSL theory. We point out that such results are based on the consideration of a rather narrow set of choices for the application of the theory to the cosmological context and that the landscape of open and differe…
Recently Finelli et al. [http://arxiv.org/abs/1405.1555] found evidence for a relatively nearby (z = 0.16) void in a galaxy catalogue in the direction of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) Cold Spot. Using a perturbative calculation, they also claimed that such a void would produce a CMB decrement comparable to that of the observed Cold Spot, mainly via the nonlinear Rees-Sciama effect. Here I calculate the effect of such a void using a fully general relativistic model and show that, to the contrary, the linear integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect dominates and produces a substantially weaker decr…
Axions have for some time been considered a plausible candidate for dark matter. They can be produced through misalignment, but it has been argued that when inflation occurs before a Peccei-Quinn transition, appreciable production can result from cosmic strings. This has been the subject of extensive simulations. But there are reasons to be skeptical about the possible role of axion strings. We review and elaborate on these questions, and argue that parametrically strings are already accounted for by the assumption of random misalignment angles. We review and elaborate on these questions, and …
Sutter et al. have responded to the criticisms we made of their cosmic void catalogue in our recent paper presenting an alternative catalogue (Nadathur & Hotchkiss 2013). Unfortunately, their response contains several statements which are incorrect, as we point out in this note.
We analyze here the final fate of complete gravitational collapse of a massless scalar field within general relativity. A class of dynamical solutions with initial data close to the Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) collapse model is explicitly given and the Einstein equations are integrated numerically in a neighborhood of the center. We show that the initial data space is evenly divided between the dynamical evolutions that terminate in a black hole final state and those that produce a locally naked singularity. We comment on the genericity aspects of the collapse end-states and the…
We examine the orientations of galaxies in 43 rich Abell galaxy clusters belonging to superclusters and containing at least 100 members in the considered area as a function of supercluster multiplicity. It is found that the orientation of galaxies in the analyzed clusters is not random and the alignment decreases with supercluster richness, although the effect is statistically significant only for azimuthal angles. The dependence of galaxy alignment on cluster location inside or outside a supercluster and on supercluster multiplicity clearly shows the importance of environmental effects on the…
See comments. We calculate analytically an effect of the thermal Comptonization on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) photons when they propagate through galaxy clusters. We estimate a deformation of the CMB spectrum due to multiple Compton scattering of the photons off electrons of an optically-thin hot spherical plasma cloud. This new approach allows us to disentangle and determine the optical depth and the electron temperature of a galaxy cluster using the CMB observations.
We offer a few remarks that should help clarify the relative sensitivity of CoGeNT, CDMS and DAMA to dark pseudoscalars. An alternative dark matter origin for the DAMA modulation is briefly mentioned within this context.
