The Standard Cosmological ModelInhomogeneous Universes

A-Void Dark Energy

Precission Cosmology and New Physics

Cosmic microwave Background δT/T ∼ 10−6

⇒ Cosmic Inflation

Large scale structure⇒ Dark Matter ρDM ≈ 5× ρSM

Supernovae ⇒ small Λ (Dark Energy, Modified Gravity...)

Probes complementary and consistent: New Physics required

The Standard Model of Cosmology

The ingredients of the Standard Model of Cosmology

GR + FRW + Inflation + SM + CDM + Λ

Theory of Gravitation: General Relativity

Ansatz for the metric: Homogeneous + Isotropic

Initial conditions: Inflationary perturbations

Standard particle content: γ, ν’s, p+, n, e−

Cold Dark Matter: some new particle species

Cosmological constant: Λ (energy of the vacuum??)

Commercial name: ΛCDM c©

Some Popular (and Unpopular) Variations on the SCM

Many models intended to avoid a small cosmological constant

Dark Energy: Λ→ Scalar φ for acceleration

Modified Gravity: GR→ f(R), φR, TeVeS, 5D-DGP. . .

Inflation → Varying speed of light, Horava-Lifschitz...

Neutrinos (mν , Nν), axions...

Backreacktion: Nonlinearity of GR, inhomogeneous effects

Large underdensity: FRW→ inhomogeneous metric

The Constrained GBH: A0(r), H0(r),ΩM(r)

Adiabatic / Constrained models

Homogeneous Big-Bang: ΩM (r) determines H0(r)up to normalization H0 → t0

Supernova Ia - Standard Candles

Standar(izable) Candles: ≈ Same (corrected) Luminosity

DL(z) =

√Luminosity

4π Flux= H−1

0 f(z,ΩΛ,ΩM ) (FRW)

difficult to model SNe ⇒ Intrinsic Luminosity unknown!!

For any L, comparison of low and high z SNe very useful

FRW: Luminosity degenerate with Hubble rate⇒ need L to determine H0

In LTB not quite true ⇒ convert constraint

H0 = 73.8± 2.4 Mpc/Km/s ↔ L = −0.120± 0.071 Mag

DL(z) =

√Luminosity

4π Flux= H−1

H0 = 73.8± 2.4 Mpc/Km/s ↔ L = −0.120± 0.071 Mag

Baryon acoustic oscillations - Standard Rulers

-CMB light released when H forms

-Sound waves in the baryon-photonplasma travel a finite distance

-Initial baryon clumps → more galaxies

Same logic as SNe: Distance vs Length (well determined!)

LTB: Do these clumps/galaxies move? Geodesics

Conclusions

Large voids as alternative to dark energy

BAO and SNe alone strongly rule out the GBH model withhomogeneous Big Bang and baryon fraction

Purely geometrical result, whatever Luminosity & BAO scale

Possible ways to save large void models:

Change the profile ΩM (r)

Inhomogeneous Big Bang ↔ free H0

Large scale isocurvature ρb = fb(r) ρm

BAO are a powerful test for large voids models of acceleration

If large voids ruled out ⇒ need small Λ or “new” physics
