Can we avoid dark energy?
J. P. Zibin, A. Moss, D. Scott
The idea that we live near the centre of a large, nonlinear void has attracted attention recently as an alternative to dark energy or modified gravity. We show that an appropriate…
The Universe as an Inside-Out Star
Mitch Crowe, Adam Moss, Douglas Scott
Acoustic modes can be used to study the physics of the interior of a cavity, and this is especially useful when the inside region is inaccessible. Many astrophysicists use such sou…
How well do we understand cosmological recombination?
Wan Yan Wong, Adam Moss, Douglas Scott
The major theoretical limitation for extracting cosmological parameters from the CMB sky lies in the precision with which we can calculate the cosmological recombination process. U…
Constraints on Brane Inflation and Cosmic Strings
Richard A. Battye, Bjorn Garbrecht, Adam Moss +1
By considering simple, but representative, models of brane inflation from a single brane-antibrane pair in the slow roll regime, we provide constraints on the parameters of the the…
Observing the evolution of the CMB
Adam Moss, James P. Zibin, Douglas Scott
Most cosmological parameters are expected to change significantly only on cosmological time scales, but given the large amount of information contained within the Cosmic Microwave…
Galaxy redshift surveys selected by neutral hydrogen using FAST
Alan R. Duffy, Richard A. Battye, Rod D. Davies +2
We discuss the possibility of performing a substantial spectroscopic galaxy redshift survey selected via the 21cm emission from neutral hydrogen using the Five-hundred metre Apertu…
Cosmological Perturbations in Elastic Dark Energy Models
Richard A. Battye, Adam Moss
We discuss the general framework for a perfect continuum medium in cosmology and show that an interesting generalization of the fluids normally used is for the medium to have rigid…
Anisotropic perturbations due to dark energy
Richard A. Battye, Adam Moss
A variety of observational tests seem to suggest that the universe is anisotropic. This is incompatible with the standard dogma based on adiabatic, rotationally invariant perturbat…
Constraints on the solid dark universe model
Richard A. Battye, Adam Moss
If the dark energy is modelled as a relativistic elastic solid then the standard CDM and CDM models, as well as lattice configurations of cosmic strings or domain walls, are poi…
