明天Andy Strominger来,下午要做公众报告,估计没有时间更新博客了。和学生们刚完成两个文章,一篇刚放到arXiv,明天出现,所以下面的链接暂时空着,明天文章出来了再补。这篇文章是研究中国人提出的三种holographic dark energy模型,一个是我的,一个是蔡荣根和韦浩等人的,一个是高长军和陈学雷等人的。
Holographic dark energy models: A comparison from the latest observational data
这篇文章的作者有四位:本博,李霄栋,王爽,张鑫。张鑫已经是东北大学的教授了。为了偷懒,我将英文摘要拷贝如下:
The holographic principle of quantum gravity theory has been applied to the dark energy (DE) problem, and so far three holographic DE models have been proposed: the original holographic dark energy (HDE) model, the agegraphic dark energy (ADE) model, and the holographic Ricci dark energy (RDE) model. In this work, we perform the best-fit analysis on these three models, by using the latest observational data including the Union+CFA3 sample of 397 Type Ia supernovae (SNIa), the shift parameter of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) given by the five-year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP5) observations, and the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurement from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The analysis shows that for HDE, ; for RDE, ; for ADE, . Among these models, HDE model can give the smallest . Besides, we also use the Bayesian evidence (BE) as a model selection criterion to make a comparison. It is found that for HDE, ADE, and RDE, , -5.17, and -8.14, respectively. So, it seems that the HDE model is more favored by the observational data.
从摘要看,HDE要明显好于AED和RDE,因为要小得多,贝叶斯证据表明和宇宙学常数比,HDE稍差些(因为多了一个参数),而另外两个模型在5之外了。出现这种情况的原因很简单,HED一般变化慢些(更接近宇宙学常数),而另外另个暗能量随时间的变化要快。
当然,目前的数据还很难说明问题,也许今后更多的数据会改善另外两个模型的处境,当然也有恶化另外两个模型的处境的可能。
第二篇文章应该在后天出现在arXiv上,三位作者:本博,庞毅,王一。文章的题目是:
Non-Commutativity, Teleology and GRB Time Delay
这篇文章完全改好了,没有放上去的原因是没有预印本号(第一篇也没有)。这篇文章内容和我在博文《光子》介绍的gamma爆的光子延迟时间有关。我们用非对易时空来解释光子延迟。题目中的teleology是目的论的意思。用这个词的原因是,如果某些光子的速度大于光速,那么存在一个惯性参照系,其中看这个光子,因果会颠倒。
同样,为了偷懒,我将英文摘要在这里“剧透”:
We propose a model in which an energy-dependent time delay of a photon originates from space-time具体物理内容,等文章出来我再介绍吧。noncommutativity, the time delay is due to a noncommutative coupling between dilaton and photon. We predict that in our model, high energy photons with different momenta can either be delayed or superluminal, this may be related to a possible time delay reported by the Fermi LAT and Fermi GBM Collaborations.
