The silent dark sector: a field-theory approach to unified dark fluids with vanishing speed of sound

Javier de Cruz Pérez, Darío Jaramillo-Garrido, Antonio L. Maroto +1

We introduce a novel class of field-theory models that provide a unified description of the dark sector as a single perfect fluid with vanishing sound speed. These models also admi…

Using non-DESI data to confirm and strengthen the DESI 2024 spatially-flat CDM cosmological parameterization result

Chan-Gyung Park, Javier de Cruz Perez, Bharat Ratra

We use a combination of Planck cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy data and non-CMB data that include Pantheon+ type Ia supernovae (SNIa), Hubble parameter [], growt…

Updated observational constraints on spatially-flat and non-flat CDM and XCDM cosmological models

Javier de Cruz Perez, Chan-Gyung Park, Bharat Ratra

We study 6 LCDM models, with 4 allowing for non-flat geometry and 3 allowing for a non-unity lensing consistency parameter . We also study 6 XCDM models with a dynamical dark…

A unified TDiff invariant field theory for the dark sector

David Alonso-López, Javier de Cruz Pérez, Antonio L. Maroto

In this work we present a unified model for the cosmological dark sector. The theory is based on a simple minimally coupled scalar field whose action only contains a canonical kine…

Running vacuum in the Universe: phenomenological status in light of the latest observations, and its impact on the and tensions

Joan Sola Peracaula, Adria Gomez-Valent, Javier de Cruz Perez +1

A substantial body of phenomenological and theoretical work over the last few years strengthens the possibility that the vacuum energy density (VED) of the universe is dynamical, a…

Running vacuum in Brans-Dicke theory: a possible cure for the and tensions

Javier de Cruz Perez, Joan Sola Peracaula

Extensions of the gravitational framework of Brans-Dicke (BD) are studied by considering two different scenarios: i) `BD-CDM', in which a rigid cosmological constant, , is in…

Possible signals of vacuum dynamics in the Universe

Joan Sola Peracaula, Javier de Cruz Perez, Adria Gomez-Valent

We study a generic class of time-evolving vacuum models which can provide a better phenomenological account of the overall cosmological observations as compared to the CDM. Amon…

Dynamical dark energy: scalar fields and running vacuum

Joan Sola, Adria Gomez-Valent, Javier de Cruz Perez

Recent analyses in the literature suggest that the concordance CDM model with rigid cosmological term, const., may not be the best description of the cosmic acceleration. Th…

Dynamical dark energy versus const. in light of observations

Joan Sola Peracaula, Javier de Cruz Perez, Adria Gomez-Valent

After about two decades of the first observational papers confirming the accelerated expansion of the universe, we are still facing the question whether the cause of it is a rigid…

First evidence of running cosmic vacuum: challenging the concordance model

Joan Sola, Adria Gomez-Valent, Javier de Cruz Perez

Despite the fact that a rigid -term is a fundamental building block of the concordance CDM model, we show that a large class of cosmological scenarios with dynamical vacuum e…

Hints of dynamical vacuum energy in the expanding Universe

Joan Sola, Adria Gomez-Valent, Javier de Cruz Perez

Recently there have been claims on model-independent evidence of dynamical dark energy. Herein we consider a fairly general class of cosmological models with a time-evolving cosmol…
