Reconstruction of the null-test for the matter density perturbations
arXiv:1410.0338 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.91.023004
Abstract
We systematically study the null-test for the growth rate data first presented in [S. Nesseris and D. Sapone, arXiv:1409.3697] and we reconstruct it using various combinations of data sets, such as the and or Type Ia supernovae (SnIa) data. We perform the reconstruction in two different ways, either by directly binning the data or by fitting various dark energy models. We also examine how well the null-test can be reconstructed by future data by creating mock catalogs based on the cosmological constant model, a model with strong dark energy perturbations, the and models, and the large void LTB model that exhibit different evolution of the matter perturbations. We find that with future data similar to an LSST-like survey, the null-test will be able to successfully discriminate between these different cases at the level.
