Cold dark matter (DM) scenario may be cured of several problems by involving self-interaction of dark matter. Viability of the models of long-range interacting DM crucially depends on the effectiveness of recombination of the DM particles, making thereby their interaction short-range. Usually in numeric calculations, recombination is described by cross section obtained on a feasible quantum level. However in a wide range of parameter values, a classical treatment, where the particles are bound due to dipole radiation, is applicable. The cross sections, obtained in both approaches, are very different and lead to diverse consequences. Classical cross section has a steeper dependence on relative velocity, what leads to the fact that, after decoupling of DM particles from thermal background of "dark photons" (carriers of DM long-range interaction), recombination process does not "freeze out", diminishing gradually density of unbound DM particles. Our simplified estimates show, that at the taken parameter values (the mass of DM particle is $100$ GeV, interaction constant is $100^{-1}$, and quite natural assumptions on initial conditions, from which the result is very weakly dependent) the difference in residual density reaches about $5$ orders of magnitude on pre-galactic stage. This estimate takes into account thermal effects induced by dipole radiation and recombination, which resulted in the increase of both temperature and density of DM particles by a half order of magnitude.
Constraints on Pre-Recombination Early Dark Energy from SPT-3G Public Data
早期的暗能量(EDE)是一种针对哈勃张力的解决方案,其中一个新的宇宙学场在复合之前加速宇宙膨胀,并减小声音视界的物理尺寸。在以前的工作中,在最新的阿塔卡玛宇宙望远镜数据(ACT DR 4)中发现了对非零EDE贡献的轻微偏好,而普朗克卫星遗留数据本身并没有显示出证据。我们发现,在目前的精度水平的SPT-3G,EDE的贡献,宇宙的总能量密度之前的重组$\sim 10\%$不能被排除,但数据也是一致的,没有EDE。ACT DR 4和SPT-3G与普朗克大尺度温度各向异性测量的组合显示了非零EDE的提示($2.6σ$);然而,当包括完整的普朗克2018数据集时,这种偏好消失了。
Testing dark energy after pre-recombination early dark energy
在复合前早期暗能量(EDE)的研究中,复合后宇宙的演化通常被认为是类$ΛCDM$的,对应于导致电流加速膨胀的暗能量的状态方程是$w=-1$。然而,在现实的模型中,$w$可能正在演变。我们分别考虑了Axion-like EDE和AdS-EDE模型中$w$相对于红移$z$的参数化.我们用最近的宇宙学数据进行了Monte Carlo Markov链分析,发现最佳拟合的$w(z)$与$w_0=-1,w_a=0$(宇宙学常数)相容,并且$w$的演化只在很小程度上有利,因此对提升${H_0}$的最佳拟合值影响不大.

Feebly Self-Interacting Cold Dark Matter: New theory for the Core-Halo structure in GLSB Galaxies
本文研究了弱自相互作用冷暗物质的低能宇宙动力学,并对大质量LSB(低表面亮度)星系的核晕模型的旋转曲线提出了一个新的简单解释。我们认为冷暗物质具有真正的无碰撞性质,即在相等和复合时期之间的小尺度上存在微弱的自相互作用,为此,我们假设了一个模型,其中强耦合重子辐射等离子体从小区域的冷暗物质中逸出而不失去平衡。利用经典动力学的变质量形式的Merscerskii方程,我们得到了关于CMB各向异性振荡与重子辐射等离子体喷射速度之间的关系的新结果,这些结果为研究CMB第二峰的数值计算提供了有用的工具.在此基础上,我们分别在Jeans理论和牛顿理论中讨论了这种弱自相互作用的冷暗物质中微扰的增长,得到了冷暗物质中分数微扰增长的表达式,该表达式简化为微扰理论在后期复合时期的标准结果.我们看到了冷暗物质势的平均扰动对宇宙微波背景温度各向异性的影响,这些各向异性起源于相等和复合之间的红移,即1100 < z < z_{eq}。我们还得到了Sachs-Wolfe效应的一个表达式,即在冷暗物质势的平均扰动下,在去耦时CMB温度各向异性。
Dynamics of Dark Matter in Baryon-Radiation Plasma: Perspectives using Meschersky equation
为了论证冷暗物质在平等和复合时期之间的真正无碰撞性质,我们假设了一个模型,其中强耦合重子辐射等离子体从集中的冷暗物质的小区域中喷出而不失去其平衡。我们使用Meschersky方程来描述冷暗物质在不同质量的强耦合重子辐射等离子体中的动力学。基于这个模型,我们讨论了在金斯理论和膨胀宇宙中冷暗物质中微扰的增长。我们看到了冷暗物质势的扰动对宇宙微波背景各向异性的影响,这些各向异性起源于相等和复合之间的红移,即$1100 < z < z_{eq}$。我们还得到了冷暗物质势扰动下的Sachs-Wolfe效应,即退耦时CMB温度各向异性的表达式。我们得到了类似的解决方案,在静态和膨胀的宇宙,时代的重组。由此,我们推断出暗能量开始占主导地位的时间尺度。
