Nonextensive scalar field theories and dark energy models
نویسنده
چکیده
Current astronomical measurements indicate that approximately 73% of the universe is made up of dark energy. Stochastically quantized self-interacting scalar fields can serve as suitable models to generate dark energy. We study a particular model where the scalar field theory underlying dark energy exhibits strongest possible chaotic behaviour. It is shown that the fluctuating chaotic field momenta obey a generalized (nonextensive) statistical mechanics, with an entropic index q given by q = 3, respectively q = −1 if the escort formalism is used.

Roles of dark energy perturbations in dynamical dark energy models: can we ignore them?
We show the importance of properly including the perturbations of the dark energy component in the dynamical dark energy models based on a scalar field and modified gravity theories in order to meet with present and future observational precisions. Based on a simple scaling scalar field dark energy model, we show that observationally distinguishable substantial differences appear by ignoring th...
متن کاملNon linear predictions from linear theories in models with Dark Energy
We study the cluster mass function and its evolution in different models with Dark Energy arising from a self–interacting scalar field, with Ratra–Peebles and SUGRA potentials. Computations are based on a Press & Schechter approximation. The mass functions we obtain are compared with results holding for open models or models with Dark Energy due to a cosmological constant. Evolution results, in...
متن کاملStructure and Evolution of Zel’dovich Pancakes as Probes of Dark Energy Models
We examine how coupled dark matter and dark energy modify the development of Zel’dovich pancakes. We study how the various effects of these theories, such as a fifth force in the dark sector and a modified particle Hubble drag, produce variations in the redshifts of caustic formation and the present-day density profiles of pancakes. We compare our results in direct simulation to a perturbation ...
متن کاملDynamical Vacuum Energy, Holographic Quintom, and the Reconstruction of Scalar-field Dark Energy
When taking the holographic principle into account, the vacuum energy will acquire dynamical property that its equation of state is evolving. The current available observational data imply that the holographic vacuum energy behaves as quintom-type dark energy. We adopt the viewpoint of that the scalar field models of dark energy are effective theories of an underlying theory of dark energy. If ...
