宇宙学常数、精细结构常数及其他

Cosmological Constant, Fine Structure Constant and Beyond

Hao Wei, Xiao-Bo Zou, Hong-Yu Li, Dong-Ze Xue

摘要:

在目前的工作中,我们考虑的宇宙学常数模型$Λ\proptoα^{-6}$,这是很好的动机,从三个独立的方法。众所周知,1998年发现了精细结构常数$α$变化的暗示。如果$Λ\proptoα^{-6}$是正确的,这意味着宇宙学常数$Λ$也应该是变化的。在这里,我们试图开发一个合适的框架来模拟这种变化的宇宙学常数$Λ\proptoα^{-6}$,我们认为它从一个相互作用的真空能量的角度来看。然后,我们利用293个远距离类星体吸收系统的$Δα/α$数据,考虑了这些模型的观测约束。我们发现,模型参数可以被严格限制在非常狭窄的范围内的${\cal O}(10^{-5})$通常。另一方面,我们也可以从另一个角度来看待变宇宙学常数模型$Λ\proptoα^{-6}$,即它可以等价于一个包含“暗能量“和“暖暗物质“的模型,但它们之间没有相互作用。我们发现,这也是完全符合观测约束温暖的暗物质。

英文摘要:

In the present work, we consider the cosmological constant model $Λ\proptoα^{-6}$, which is well motivated from three independent approaches. As is well known, the hint of varying fine structure constant $α$ was found in 1998. If $Λ\proptoα^{-6}$ is right, it means that the cosmological constant $Λ$ should also be varying. Here, we try to develop a suitable framework to model this varying cosmological constant $Λ\proptoα^{-6}$, in which we view it from an interacting vacuum energy perspective. Then, we consider the observational constraints on these models by using the 293 $Δα/α$ data from the absorption systems in the spectra of distant quasars. We find that the model parameters can be tightly constrained to the very narrow ranges of ${\cal O}(10^{-5})$ typically. On the other hand, we can also view the varying cosmological constant model $Λ\proptoα^{-6}$ from another perspective, namely it can be equivalent to a model containing "dark energy" and "warm dark matter", but there is no interaction between them. We find that this is also fully consistent with the observational constraints on warm dark matter.
