Limits on coupling between dark components

Abstract

DM--DE coupling can be a phenomenological indication of a common origin of the dark cosmic components. In this work we outline a new constraint to coupled--DE models: the coupling can partially or totally suppress the Meszaros effect, yielding transfered spectra with quite a soft bending above $k_{hor,eq}$. Models affected by this anomaly do not show major variation in the CMB anisotropy spectrum and it is herefore hard to reconcile them with both CMB and deep sample data, through the same value of the primeval spectral index.
