Solar System-scale Interferometry on Fast Radio Bursts Could Measure Cosmic Distances with Subpercent Precision

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The light from an extragalactic source at a distance d will arrive at detectors separated by 100 au at times that differ by as much as 120( d /100 Mpc) ^−1 nanoseconds because of the curvature of the wave front. At gigahertz frequencies, the arrival time

The Pantheon+ Analysis: Cosmological Constraints [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2022
We present constraints on cosmological parameters from the Pantheon+ analysis of 1701 light curves of 1550 distinct Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) ranging in redshift from z = 0.001 to 2.26.

Inflation and cosmological constant [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica Scripta, 2021
Abstract In construction of an inflationary model, one usually assumes that the matter sector of the gravitational action is minimally coupled to the background. It means that the matter (inflaton) part of the action is coupled with the same metric of the gravitational part.

Graduated dark energy: Observational hints of a spontaneous sign switch in the cosmological constant [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2019
We study the cosmological constant (Λ) in the standard Λ cold dark matter model by introducing the graduated dark energy (gDE) characterized by a minimal dynamical deviation from the null inertial mass density of the Λ in the form ρinert ...

Vacuum energy with mass generation and Higgs bosons

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2020
We discuss the Higgs mass and cosmological constant hierarchy puzzles with emphasis on the interplay of Poincaré invariance, mass generation and renormalization group invariance.

Brans–Dicke Gravity with a Cosmological Constant Smoothes Out ΛCDM Tensions [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
We analyze Brans–Dicke gravity with a cosmological constant, Λ, and cold dark matter (BD-ΛCDM) in the light of the latest cosmological observations on distant supernovae, Hubble rate measurements at different redshifts, baryonic acoustic oscillations ...

Is There a Cosmological Constant? [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1996
We present limits on the cosmological constant from the statistics of gravitational lenses using newly completed quasar surveys, new lens data, and a range of lens models. The formal limit is $λ_0 < 0.66$ at 95\% confidence in flat cosmologies, including the statistical uncertainties in the number of lenses, galaxies, quasars, and the parameters ...

THE COSMOLOGICAL CONSTANT [PDF]

open access: yesString Phenomenology, 2003
Various contributions to the cosmological constant are discussed and confronted with its recent measurement. We briefly review different scenarious -- and their difficulties -- for a solution of the cosmological constant problem.

Black hole spontaneous scalarisation with a positive cosmological constant [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2019
A scalar field non-minimally coupled to certain geometric [or matter] invariants which are sourced by [electro]vacuum black holes (BHs) may spontaneously grow around the latter, due to a tachyonic instability.

A symmetry for the cosmological constant [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2006
We study a symmetry, schematically Energy -> - Energy, which suppresses matter contributions to the cosmological constant. The requisite negative energy fluctuations are identified with a "ghost" copy of the Standard Model. Gravity explicitly, but weakly, violates the symmetry, and naturalness requires General Relativity to break down at short ...
