Dark energy, dissipation and the coincidence problem
Luis P. Chimento, Alejandro S. Jakubi, and Diego Pavón Departamento de F́ısica, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 1428 Buenos Aires, Argentina Departamento de F́ısica, Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona, 08193 Bellaterra, Spain Abstract In a recent paper we showed that a quintessence scalar field plus a dissipative matter fluid can drive late cosmic accelerated expansion and simultaneously solve the co...
متن کاملDensity fluctuations in the presence of spinodal instabilities.
Density fluctuations resulting from spinodal decomposition in a nonequilibrium first-order chiral phase transition are explored. We show that such instabilities generate divergent fluctuations of conserved charges along the isothermal spinodal lines appearing in the coexistence region. Thus, divergent density fluctuations could be a signal not only for the critical end point but also for the fi...
متن کاملMechanical and chemical spinodal instabilities in finite quantum systems.
Self-consistent quantum approaches are used to study the instabilities of finite nuclear systems. The frequencies of multipole density fluctuations are determined as a function of dilution and temperature for several isotopes. The spinodal region of the phase diagrams is determined, and it appears that instabilities are reduced by finite size effects. The role of surface and volume instabilitie...
متن کاملSpinodal instabilities and super-Planckian excursions in natural inflation.
Models such as Natural Inflation that use pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons as the inflaton are attractive for many reasons. However, they typically require trans-Planckian field excursions ΔΦ>MPl, due to the need for an axion decay constant f>MPl to have both a sufficient number of e-folds and values of ns,r consistent with data. Such excursions would in general require the addition of all other h...
متن کاملInstabilities of dark solitons.
Optical dark solitons described by the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation are discussed, and the criterion of soliton instability is presented. This analytical criterion is confirmed numerically for an exactly solvable model of nonlinear saturation.
