Matching the observed cosmological constant with vacuum energy density in AdS
arXiv:astro-ph/0103437 · doi:10.1016/S0375-9601(02)00387-0
Abstract
We calculate the vacuum energy density by taking account of different massive scalar fields in AdS spacetime. It is found that the mass spectrum of a scalar field in AdS spacetime is discrete because of a natural boundary condition. The results match well with the observed cosmological constant.
