The pre-inflationary and inflationary fast-roll eras and their signatures in the low CMB multipoles
C. Destri, H. J. de Vega, N. G. Sanchez
We study the entire coupled evolution of the inflaton and the scale factor for general initial conditions at a given initial time. The generic early universe evolution has three st…
Do WMAP5 data favor neutrino mass and a coupling between Cold Dark Matter and Dark Energy?
S. A. Bonometto, G. La Vacca, J. R. Kristiansen +2
We fit WMAP5 and related data by allowing for a CDM--DE coupling and non--zero neutrino masses, simultaneously. We find a significant correlation between these parameters, so that…
Spectra of dynamical Dark Energy cosmologies from constant-w models
Luciano Casarini
WMAP5 and related data have greatly restricted the range of acceptable cosmologies, by providing precise likelihood ellypses on the the w_0-w_a plane. We discuss first how such ell…
Unified Dark Matter models with fast transition
Oliver F. Piattella, Daniele Bertacca, Marco Bruni +1
We investigate the general properties of Unified Dark Matter (UDM) fluid models where the pressure and the energy density are linked by a barotropic equation of state (EoS) $p = p(…
Do data favor neutrino mass and a coupling between Cold Dark Matter and Dark Energy?
G. La Vacca, J. R. Kristiansen, L. P. L. Colombo +2
We allow simultaneously for a CDM--DE coupling and non--zero neutrino masses and find that significant coupling and neutrino mass are (slightly) statistically favoured in respect t…
The extreme limit of the generalized Chaplygin gas
Oliver F. Piattella
Unified Dark Matter models describe Dark Matter and Dark Energy as a single entity which is, in the simplest case, embodied in a perfect barotropic fluid. It is a well-established…
Higher order terms in the inflaton potential and the lower bound on the tensor to scalar ratio r
C. Destri, H. J. de Vega, N. G. Sanchez
The MCMC analysis of the CMB+LSS data in the context of the Ginsburg-Landau approach to inflation indicated that the fourth degree double--well inflaton potential best fits the pre…
The Effective Theory of Inflation in the Standard Model of the Universe and the CMB+LSS data analysis
D. Boyanovsky, C. Destri, H. J. de Vega +1
Inflation is part of the Standard Model of the Universe supported by CMB and large scale structure LSS datasets. This review presents new developments of inflation in three main ch…
