Induced Cosmological Anisotropies and CMB Anomalies by a non-Abelian Gauge-Gravity Interaction
arXiv:2312.14513 · doi:10.1016/j.dark.2024.101601
Abstract
We present a non-abelian cousin of the model presented in \cite{Lee:2022rtz} which induces cosmological anisotropies on top of standard FLRW geometry. This is in some sense doing a cosmological mean field approximation, where the mean field cosmological model under consideration would be the standard FLRW, and the induced anisotropies are small perturbative corrections on top of it. Here we mostly focus on the non-abelian gauge fields coupled to the gravity to generate the anisotropies, which can be a viable model for the axion-like particle (ALP) dark sector. The induced anisotropies are consequences of the non-trivial back-reaction of the gauge fields on the gravity sector, and by a clever choice of the parametrization, one can generate the Bianchi model we have studied in this note. We also show that the anisotropies influence the Sachs-Wolfe effect and we discuss the implications.
