Recent & Future Developments in Cosmology: 

Recent & Future Developments in Cosmology Josh Frieman XXII Physics in Collision, Stanford, June 2002

Concordance Cosmology: 

Concordance Cosmology Our knowledge of the cosmological parameters has made tremendous strides in the last two years: b = 0.04 (to ~20%) baryons m = 0.3 (to ~20%) matter DE = 0.7 (~15%) dark energy total = 1 (~5%) ns = 1 (~10%) slope of power spectrum H0 = 72 km/sec/Mpc (~10%) HST Key Project t0 = 14 Gyr (~8%) The prospects for increasing the precision of these measurements in the near future are excellent.

Some Key Questions for 21st Century Cosmology: 

Some Key Questions for 21st Century Cosmology Did inflation occur in the early Universe, and did it originate the perturbations that formed Large-scale structure? What is the nature of the Dark Matter that makes up most of the mass of the Universe? What is the nature of the Dark Energy that is causing the expansion of the Universe to accelerate? What happened `before’ the Big Bang? Is this question meaningful? Are there more than 3 spatial dimensions? Can we ever detect them?

The Structure Formation Cookbook: 

The Structure Formation Cookbook 1. Initial Conditions: A Theory for the Origin of Density Perturbations in the Early Universe Your favorite Inflation model: primordial spectrum P ~ kn 2. Cooking with Gravity: Growing Perturbations to Form Structure Set the Oven to Cold (or Hot or Warm) Dark Matter Season with a few Baryons and add Dark Energy 3. Let Cool for 13 Billion years 4. Tweak (1) and (2) until it tastes like the observed Universe.

Dark Energy and the Accelerating Universe: 

Dark Energy and the Accelerating Universe Brightness of distant Type Ia supernovae indicates the expansion of the Universe is accelerating, not decelerating. If General Relativity is valid, this requires a new form of stress-energy-momentum with negative effective pressure*: DARK ENERGY Characterize by its equation of state: w = p/ *more specifically, p <  (w < 1/3) Dubya

Evidence for Dark Energy: 

Evidence for Dark Energy Direct Evidence for Acceleration Brightness of distant Type Ia supernovae: Standard candles  measure luminosity distance dL(z): sensitive to the expansion history H(z) Supernova Cosmology Project High-Z Supernova Team II. Evidence for `Missing Energy’ CMB Flat Universe: 0 = 1 Clusters, LSS, CMB  Low matter density m  0.3 missing = 1 – 0.3 = 0.7 and missing stuff can only dominate recently for structure to form: w < – 0.5

Tragic (Pre-)History of Dark Energy: a cautionary tale: 

Tragic (Pre-)History of Dark Energy: a cautionary tale Cosmological constant has been periodically invoked to solve cosmological crises, then dropped when they passed: 1916: Einstein: static Universe (`greatest blunder of my life’) 1929: 1st `age crisis’: Universe (t ~1/H) younger than Earth 1967: apparent clustering of QSOs at fixed redshift 1974: luminosity distance using galaxy std. candles  acceleration 1995: 2nd ‘age crisis’: H0 = 80 km/sec/Mpc; U. younger than globular clusters 1998: luminosity distance using Sne Ia std. candles  acceleration 2000: Spatial flatness from CMB anisotropy  Missing energy

Slide62: 

Given this tawdry history, why should we take Dark Energy seriously now? 1. No killer systematic errors for SNe Ia yet identified. 2. For the first time, we now have multiple lines of evidence pointing to Dark Energy, each subject to different systematic errors

Slide63: 

Type Ia Supernovae Peak Brightness as a calibrated `Standard’ Candle Intrinsic Brightness vs. Time Physical model: White dwarf star, accreting mass from a companion star, explodes when it exceeds a critical mass (Chandrasekhar) Luminosity Time

Slide64: 

m(z) = M+5log(H0dL)=(1+z)  dz’/H(z’) Apparent Brightness Fainter 42 SNe Ia

Slide65: 

Assuming w =  1 Consistent results from High-Z Team Riess, etal ‘98

Type Ia Supernovae: 

Type Ia Supernovae Advantages: small dispersion in peak brightness (std. candles) single objects (simpler than galaxies) can be observed over wide z range Challenges: dust (grey dust) causing distant SNe to appear fainter chemical composition evolution of progenitor population photometric calibration environmental differences

Continuing Evidence for Acceleration:

Dark Energy Models?: 

Dark Energy Models? Cosmological Constant: Vacuum Energy (w = -1) Dynamical scalar fields (w varies) (aka `quintessence’ east of the Delaware River) Frustrated topological defects (w = -1/3 or –2/3) Replace General Relativity (extra dimensions?)

Two Problems: 

Two Problems Cosmological constant problem: why is the vacuum energy density 40-120 orders of magnitude smaller than expected? Coincidence problem: why do we live at the special epoch when the vacuum energy density is comparable to the matter energy density? matter ~ a-3 DE ~ a-3(1+w) vac = constant matter DE a

Slide77: 

These two problems are common to ALL Dark Energy models All Dark Energy models assume a (benign) solution of the Cosmological Constant problem

Dynamical Scalar Field Models aka Quintessence: 

Dynamical Scalar Field Models aka Quintessence Ultra-light particle: Dark Energy hardly clusters, nearly smooth Equation of state: in general, w > -1 and evolves in time Hierarchy problem: Why m/ ~ 10-61? General features: meff < 3H0 ~ 10-33 eV (w < 0) (Potential vs. Kinetic Energy)  ~ m22 ~ crit ~ 10-10 eV4   ~ 1028 eV ~ MPlanck  

Conclusions: 

Conclusions Precision cosmology is bringing sharply into focus the fundamental physics issues underlying the values of the cosmological parameters Although 20th C. cosmology is littered with false prophets of , for the first time we have multiple lines of evidence for Dark Energy Nature of the Dark Energy remains a mystery, wrapped in the larger enigma of the Cosmological Constant problem. Theorists are stumped, but the prospects for probing the Dark Energy using multiple nearly `orthogonal’ observational techniques are very good over the coming decade. These probes are needed to blaze the trail for fundamental theory.
