Cosmological bounds on the equation of state of dark matter

Christian M. Mueller

In this exploratory study, we investigate the bounds on the equation of state of dark matter. Modeling dark matter as a fluid component, we take into account both positive and nega…

Cosmological Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation with Cmbeasy

Christian M. Mueller

We introduce a Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation and data analysis package for the cosmological computation package Cmbeasy. We have taken special care in implementing an adaptiv…

Nucleosynthesis and the variation of fundamental couplings

Christian M. Mueller, Gregor Schaefer, Christof Wetterich

We determine the influence of a variation of the fundamental ``constants'' on the predicted helium abundance in Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. The analytic estimate is performed in two…

Analyze This! A Cosmological Constraint Package for CMBEASY

Michael Doran, Christian M. Mueller

We introduce a Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation and data analysis package that extends the CMBEASY software. We have taken special care in implementing an adaptive step algorith…

Early Quintessence and the CMB

Christian M Mueller

We examine the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy for signatures of early quintessence dark energy -- a non-negligible quintessence energy density during the recombinatio…

Gauge-Invariant Initial Conditions and Early Time Perturbations in Quintessence Universes

Michael Doran, Christian M. Mueller, Gregor Schaefer +1

We present a systematic treatment of the initial conditions and evolution of cosmological perturbations in a universe containing photons, baryons, neutrinos, cold dark matter, and…
