强耦合暗能量宇宙学:保持LCDM的成功和缓解低尺度问题I -线性理论的再讨论

Strongly Coupled Dark Energy Cosmologies: preserving LCDM success and easing low scale problems I - Linear theory revisited

Silvio A. Bonometto, Roberto Mainini, Andrea V. Macciò

摘要:

在这第一篇论文中,我们讨论了一类新模型的线性理论和背景演变,我们将其称为SCDEW:强耦合DE加上WDM。在这些模型中,WDM主导了今天的物质密度;像重子一样,WDM是非耦合的。暗能量是一个标量场$Φ$ ;它与辅助CDM的耦合是一个基本的模型特征,后者今天的密度是$\ll 1\, \%$。事实上,这种耦合允许宇宙结构的形成,尽管WDM粒子质量非常低($\sim 100$ eV)。SCDEW模型产生的宇宙微波背景和线性大尺度特征与$Λ$ CDM基本上无法区分,但由于WDM质量非常低,它们极大地缓解了小尺度上的$Λ$ CDM问题,正如II相关论文中的数值模拟所证实的那样。此外,SCDEW宇宙学显着缓解的巧合和微调问题的$Λ$ CDM,并通过使用场论的方法,我们还概述了可能的联系与通货膨胀模型。我们还讨论了一个可能的衰落的耦合在低的红移,防止非线性的CDM组件,导致计算问题。然而,对于SCDEW模型,(可能的)低- $z$耦合抑制、其机制及其后果仍然是未解决的问题-不一定是问题。的耦合强度和WDM粒子质量,虽然是额外的参数,相对于$Λ$ CDM,被发现基本上是先验约束,这样,如果SCDEW是基本的宇宙学,我们预计大多数数据也适合$Λ$ CDM预测。

英文摘要:

In this first paper we discuss the linear theory and the background evolution of a new class of models we dub SCDEW: Strongly Coupled DE, plus WDM. In these models, WDM dominates today's matter density; like baryons, WDM is uncoupled. Dark Energy is a scalar field $Φ$; its coupling to ancillary CDM, whose today's density is $\ll 1\, \%$, is an essential model feature. Such coupling, in fact, allows the formation of cosmic structures, in spite of very low WDM particle masses ($\sim 100$ eV). SCDEW models yields Cosmic Microwave Background and linear Large Scale features substantially undistinguishable from $Λ$CDM, but thanks to the very low WDM masses they strongly alleviate $Λ$CDM issues on small scales, as confirmed via numerical simulations in the II associated paper. Moreover SCDEW cosmologies significantly ease the coincidence and fine tuning problems of $Λ$CDM and, by using a field theory approach, we also outline possible links with inflationary models. We also discuss a possible fading of the coupling at low redshifts which prevents non linearities on the CDM component to cause computational problems. The (possible) low-$z$ coupling suppression, its mechanism, and its consequences are however still open questions -not necessarily problems- for SCDEW models. The coupling intensity and the WDM particle mass, although being extra parameters in respect to $Λ$CDM, are found to be substantially constrained a priori so that, if SCDEW is the underlying cosmology, we expect most data to fit also $Λ$CDM predictions.
