用有效场论方法检验Hu-Sawicki f(R)引力

Testing Hu-Sawicki f(R) gravity with the Effective Field Theory approach

Bin Hu, Marco Raveri, Matteo Rizzato, Alessandra Silvestri

摘要:

我们展示了如何将一个特定的修正引力模型完全映射到爱因斯坦-玻尔兹曼求解器EFTCAMB中。这种方法包括几个步骤,并允许以最小的努力获得模型的宇宙学现象。我们讨论了所有这些步骤,从宇宙学背景的模型的动力学方程的解决方案的映射关系的使用铸造成有效场论语言的模型,并使用后者来解决微扰。我们选择Hu-Sawicki f(R)引力模型作为我们的工作例子。在解决背景和执行映射后,我们将算法与EFTCAMB接口,并利用有效场论框架来集成线性扰动的完整动态,返回精确比较模型与观测所需的所有量。我们讨论了这个模型的一些观测特征,重点是宇宙结构的线性增长。特别是,我们提出的行为的$fσ_8$和$E_G$,不像$Λ$ CDM的情况下,一般尺度依赖于除了红移的依赖。最后,我们通过将其宇宙学预测与普朗克2015年的数据进行比较,包括CMB透镜,WiggleZ星系巡天和CFHTLenS弱透镜巡天测量,研究了该模型的观测意义。我们发现,虽然WiggleZ的数据有利于一个非零值的胡-Sawicki模型参数,$\log_{10}(-f^0_{R})$,因此一个大的值的$σ_8$,CFHTLenS拖动估计的$\log_{10}(-f^0_{R})$回到$Λ$ CDM限制。

英文摘要:

We show how to fully map a specific model of modified gravity into the Einstein-Boltzmann solver EFTCAMB. This approach consists in few steps and allows to obtain the cosmological phenomenology of a model with minimal effort. We discuss all these steps, from the solution of the dynamical equations for the cosmological background of the model to the use of the mapping relations to cast the model into the effective field theory language and use the latter to solve for perturbations. We choose the Hu-Sawicki f(R) model of gravity as our working example. After solving the background and performing the mapping, we interface the algorithm with EFTCAMB and take advantage of the effective field theory framework to integrate the full dynamics of linear perturbations, returning all quantities needed to accurately compare the model with observations. We discuss some observational signatures of this model, focusing on the linear growth of cosmic structures. In particular we present the behavior of $fσ_8$ and $E_G$ that, unlike the $Λ$CDM scenario, are generally scale dependent in addition to redshift dependent. Finally, we study the observational implications of the model by comparing its cosmological predictions to the Planck 2015 data, including CMB lensing, the WiggleZ galaxy survey and the CFHTLenS weak lensing survey measurements. We find that while WiggleZ data favor a non-vanishing value of the Hu-Sawicki model parameter, $\log_{10}(-f^0_{R})$, and consequently a large value of $σ_8$, CFHTLenS drags the estimate of $\log_{10}(-f^0_{R})$ back to the $Λ$CDM limit.
