* * Interacting Dark Energy Xinmin Zhang Institute of High Energy Physics Beijing June 18, 2004 * Recent years Cosmology made big progress ? ? * 4%: Particles in the standard model but why no antimatter? * Understanding the Dark Sector: Challenges to particle physics Dark Matter: Favored candidates: Axion Neutralino Thermal Production Non-thermal Production For ex: consider a model with extra UB-L(1) UB-L(1) broken neutrino masses cosmic string String loop decay Jeannerot, Brandenberger Zhang, Jan. 1999 Thermal production Non-thermal 1， 2, enhancing the parameter space 3, cold dark matter warm dark matter Weak interactions “stronger” interactions CDM: “Nagging Problems” Prediction of cuspy dark halos Apparent prediction of too much substructures thermal Non-thermal Astrophysical explanations Lin, Huang, Zhang Brandenberger, Particle physics PRL (2001) Dark Energy: * Negative pressure: ? * Smoothly distributed, (almost ) not clustering Candidates: * Cosmological constant (or vacuum Energy) But: , cosmological problem! * Dynamical Field: Quintessence, K-essence, Phantom etc Outline of this talk on Interacting DE Very briefly review on the current constraints on Dark Energy A model of unifying and In the framework of Quintessence, introducing coupling: A model of neutrinos with varying masses Since the scale of DE, Only comparable with mν, interesting to speculate on the possible connection betweens the two: Interaction between the
