宇宙学引力测试

Cosmological Tests of Gravity

Benjamin Bose

摘要:

对引力的修正可以为宇宙学标准模型的暗成分提供有吸引力的替代方案。这些对广义相对论(GR)的修正必须隐藏在小尺度上,在那里理论得到了很好的检验,所以人们自然会关注大尺度,以检测任何偏离GR的现象。在宇宙尺度上检验引力的一个特别有希望的途径是在红移空间中星系团的各向异性中。本文提出了一个框架,一贯建设的大尺度结构观测量的红移空间的引力理论,包括一个额外的标量自由度,具体来说,Horndeski类理论与广义的潜力项。这样一个框架的背景下,下一代光谱调查的相关性,然后使用N体模拟。论文最后总结了正在进行的和最近完成的对这个框架的扩展,包括相互作用暗能量模型和大尺度结构的有效场论。

英文摘要:

Modifications to gravity can provide attractive alternatives to the dark components of the standard model of cosmology. These modifications to general relativity (GR) must be hidden at small scales where theory is well tested, and so one naturally looks to the large scales in order to detect any deviations from GR. One particularly promising avenue in testing gravity at cosmological scales is within the anisotropy of galaxy clustering in redshift space. This thesis presents a framework for consistently constructing large scale structure observables in redshift space for gravitational theories that include an additional scalar degree of freedom, specifically, the Horndeski class of theories with a generalized potential term. The relevance of such a framework in the context of next generation spectroscopic surveys is then investigated using N-body simulations. The thesis concludes with ongoing and recently completed extensions to this framework, including interacting dark energy models and the effective field theory of large scale structure.
