2 Dual-Axion Model Axion: DM candidate from Peccei-Quinn (PQ) solution to the strong CP problem modifying PQ model : - strong CP problem solved (even better so…) - DM and DE from single complex scalar field (exploit better the same fields as in PQ approach) - no fine-tuning - number of parameter as SCDM (even 1 less than LCDM…) DM an DE in fair proportion from one parameter - DM and DE coupled (this can be tested) but ….. …..no extra parameter (coupling strength set by theory)

3 Strong CP problem Non-perturbative effects related to the vacuum structure of QCD leads a CP-violating term in L QCD : Neutron electric dipole moment Experimental limits on electric dipole moment Why θ is so small?

4 Peccei-Quinn solution and the axion Peccei & Quinn 1977 PQ idea: CP-violating term is suppressed making  a dynamical variable driven to zero by the action of its potential -Additional global U(1) PQ symmetry in SM -U(1) PQ is spontaneously broken at the scale F PQ -  -parameter is now the NG boson due to sym.br. : the axion W einberg 1978; Wilczek 1978 with NG potential

5 - CP-violating terms generate a potential for the axion which acquires a mass m(T) (chiral symmetry break). From instantonic calculus: -F PQ is a free parameter -Cosmological and astrophysical constraints require:

6 Axion cosmology - Equation of motion (θ <<1): -Coherent oscillations for -Oscillations are damped by the expansion of the universe -Axions as Dark Matter candidate Averaging over cosmological time = Kolb & Turner 1990

7 Can a single scalar field account for both DM and DE? NG potential Tracker quintessence potential with a complex scalar field no longer constant but evolves over cosmological times PQ modelDual-Axion Model Angular oscillations are still axions while radial motion yields DE

8 LAGRANGIAN THEORY AXIONDARK ENERGY Friction term modified: more damping than PQ case COUPLED QUINTESSENCE MODEL with a time dependent coupling C(  )=1/  Amendola 2000, 2003

9 Background evolution We use SUGRA potential Note: in a model with dynamical DE (coupled or uncoupled) once Ω DM is assigned  can be arbitrarily fixed. Here  is univocally determined

10 Background evolution coupling term settles on different tracker solution

11 Background evolution After equivalence the kinetic energy of DE is non-negligible during matter era

12 Axion mass Φ variation cause a dependence of the axion mass on scale factor a Rebounce at z=10 could be critical for structure formation Maccio’ et al 2004, Phys. Rev. D69, 123516

13 -One complex scalar field yields both DM & DE -Fair DM-DE proportions from one parameter :  /GeV~10 10 -Strong CP problem solved -DM-DE coupling fixed (C=1/  ) Conclusions

14 Dark Matter-Baryon segregation in the non-linear evolution of coupled Dark Energy models Roberto Mainini Università di Milano Bicocca

15 Post–linear evolution of density fluctuation: The spherical “top-hat” collapse Perturbation evolution: But…..for present structure  >> 1 linear theory until  << 1 Gravitational instability: present struture (galaxy, group, cluster) originated by small density perturbation Simplest approach to non-linearity is to follow an inhomogeneity with particularly simple form

16 Post–linear evolution of density fluctuation: The spherical “top-hat” collapse Top-hat overdensity in SCDM: Assuming mass conservation …. Initial expansion with Hubble flow, then separation from background universe and collapse …as a closed FRW universe Virial radius + Virial theorem Energy conservation between turn-around and virialization Density contrast

17 Post–linear evolution of density fluctuation: The spherical “top-hat” collapse Top-hat overdensity in  CDM and uncoupled DE models: Assuming an homogeneous DE field….. Virial radius …again from virial theorem and energy conservation but…. Density contrast no longer constant Mainini, Macciò & Bonometto 2003, New Astron., 8, 173

18 Coupled Dark Energy (cDE) Basic equations Spatially flat FRW universe with: baryons, radiation, cold DM and DE (scalar field  with potential V(  )) Continuty equations: Friedmann eq. Interaction DM-DE parametrized by Usual eqs. for baryons and radiation

19 Coupling effects: modified DM dynamics Coupled Dark Energy -Variable mass for DM particles -Violation of equivalence principle -Newtonian interactions: DM-DM particles: effective gravitational constant DM-baryons or baryons-baryons: ordinary gravitational constant

20 Coupled Dark Energy (cDE) Coupling effects: DM-baryons bias From linear theory: DM and baryons density fluctuations described by 2 coupled Jeans’ equations: modified friction term modified source term N-body simulations indicate that the bias persists also at non-linear level Macciò, Quercellini, Mainini, Amendola & Bonometto 2004, Phys.Rev.D 69, 123516 Linear bias

21 Spherical collapse in cDE models -DM and baryons top-hat fluctuations of identical radius R TH,i expanding with Hubble flow -Fluctuation amplitudes in DM and baryons set by linear theory: a set of n concentric shells with radii R n c (DM) R n b (baryons) such that Start with: then, consider and initial conditions:

22 Spherical collapse in cDE models: Time evolution of concentric shells From T  ;  = 0,using comoving radiiand modified friction term modified source term stronger gravitational push for DM layers, also strengthened by modified friction term Eqs. in physical coordinates Usual Friedmann-like equation for baryon shells Modified equation for DM shells

23 Spherical collapse in cDE models: Time evolution of concentric shells -DM fluctuation expands more slowly and reach turn-around earlier -Baryons contraction at different times for different layers -Baryons gradually leak out from the fluctuation bulk As a consequence…..baryon component deviates from a top-hat geometry

24 Spherical collapse in cDE models Density profiles - Top-hat geometry kept for DM - Deviation from a top-hat geometry for baryons outside R TH - Perturbation also in material outside the boundary of fluctuation: outside R TH baryon recollapse fastened by increased density of DM

25 Spherical collapse in cDE models: Escaped baryon fraction - Barion fraction f b outside R TH at virialization: - Mildly dependence on the scale 

26 Virialization in cDE models How to define virialization in cDE models? 1 - Only materials within top-hat considered: escaped baryon fraction neglected 2 - All materials inside original fluctuation plus intruder DM considered - Slower gravitational infall for baryons: outer layers of halo rich of baryons - Gradually recollapse of external baryons onto the DM-richer core: DM materials outside the original fluctuation carried with them - Original DM / baryons ratio increased but……..any intermediate choice also alloweded No virialization with all the materials of original fluctuation – and only them

27 Virialization in cDE models Our choice:1 - Only materials within top-hat considered: escaped baryon fraction neglected Potential energy made of three terms: self-interaction, mutual interaction, interaction with DE DM-DE energy exchange for fluctuation described by G*=  G Virialization condition: Kinetic and potential energies:

28 Virialization in cDE models Performing integrals… …but different baryons layers have different growth ratesnot valid for T b (R TH ) Density contrast

29 Conclusions Ambiguity of definition of halo virialization: difficulty in comparing simulations outputs or data with PS or similar prediction But…indipendently of the way how virialization is defined: 1 - Only materials within top-hat considered: escaped baryon fraction neglected 2 - All the materials inside the original fluctuation plus intruder DM considered (or any intermediate choice) Final virialized system is richer of DM Spherical top-hat collapse model in cDE theories:

30 DM-baryons segregation during spherical growth: a fresh approach in the treatment of a number of cosmological problems large scale: baryon enrichment of large clusters? intermediate scale: lost baryonic materials as intra-cluster light? (X-ray, EUV excess emission problem) small scale: systems likely to loose their outer layers because of close encounters with heavier objects (missing satellite problem solved?) -Simulations of DM-DE coupled cosmologies urgently required -Replacing constant coupling with 1/  coupling Conclusions
