Observational Insights on DBI K-essence Models Using Machine Learning and Bayesian Analysis

Samit Ganguly, Arijit Panda, Eduardo Guendelman +3

We perform a late-time cosmological study; we compare the performance of two Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI)-type k-essence scalar field extensions of the CDM model to the standard fram…

Non-Affine Extensions of the Raychaudhuri Equation in the K-essence Framework

Samit Ganguly, Goutam Manna, Debashis Gangopadhyay +2

We present a new avenue of the Raychaudhuri Equation (RE) by introducing a non-affine parametrization within the k-essence framework. This modification accounts for non-geodesic fl…

Strong Lensing by Galaxy Clusters

Priyamvada Natarajan, Liliya L. Williams, Marusa Bradac +4

Galaxy clusters as gravitational lenses play a unique role in astrophysics and cosmology: they permit mapping the dark matter distribution on a range of scales; they reveal the pro…

Dark Energy as a Critical Period in Binary Motion: Bounds from Multi-scale Binaries

David Benisty, Jenny Wagner, Denitsa Staicova

The two-body problem under the influence of both dark energy and post-Newtonian modifications is studied. In this unified framework, we demonstrate that dark energy plays the role…

Much ado about no offset -- Characterising the anomalous multiple-image configuration and the model-driven displacement between light and mass in the multi-plane strong lens Abell 3827

Joyce Lin, Jenny Wagner, Richard E. Griffiths

Abell 3827 is a unique galaxy cluster with a dry merger in its core causing a highly-resolved multiple-image configuration of a blue spiral galaxy at . The surfa…

Is the Observable Universe Consistent with the Cosmological Principle?

Pavan Kumar Aluri, Paolo Cea, Pravabati Chingangbam +20

The Cosmological Principle (CP) -- the notion that the Universe is spatially isotropic and homogeneous on large scales -- underlies a century of progress in cosmology. It is conven…
