摘要:

本文系统而精确地讨论了自相互作用暗物质模型中,相对论性时从原始等离子体中退耦出来的粒子的宇宙学扰动的演化。我们在公开可用的玻尔兹曼代码中提供了在以前的论文[JCAP,09(2020)041]中开发的玻尔兹曼层次结构的数值实现,并展示了它如何应用于现实的DM候选者,例如共振或非共振产生机制下的无菌中微子,以及不同的场介质。在与传统的流体近似-也被称为$c_{\rm eff}-c_{\rm vis}$参数化-我们的方法如下的演变相空间扰动下弹性DM相互作用的广泛的相互作用模型,包括后期动力学解耦的影响。最后,我们分析了不同的自相互作用模型在线性结构形成上留下的印记,这些印记可以使用Lyman- $α$森林和卫星计数来约束。我们发现新的下限的粒子质量比以前的限制较少的限制。

英文摘要:

This paper presents a systematic and accurate treatment of the evolution of cosmological perturbations in self-interacting dark matter models, for particles which decoupled from the primordial plasma while relativistic. We provide a numerical implementation of the Boltzmann hierarchies developed in a previous paper [JCAP, 09 (2020) 041] in a publicly available Boltzmann code and show how it can be applied to realistic DM candidates such as sterile neutrinos either under resonant or non-resonant production mechanisms, and for different field mediators. At difference with traditional fluid approximations -- also known as a $c_{\rm eff}-c_{\rm vis}$ parametrizations -- our approach follows the evolution of phase-space perturbations under elastic DM interactions for a wide range of interaction models, including the effects of late kinetic decoupling. Finally, we analyze the imprints left by different self interacting models on linear structure formation, which can be constrained using Lyman-$α$ forest and satellite counts. We find new lower bounds on the particle mass that are less restrictive than previous constraints.
