Measurements of the luminosity distance of propagating gravitational waves can provide invaluable information on the geometry and content of our Universe. Due to the clustering of cosmic structures, in realistic situations we need to average the luminosity distance of events coming from patches inside a volume. In this work we evaluate, in a gauge-invariant and fully-relativistic treatment, the impact of cosmological perturbations on such averaging process. We find that clustering, lensing and peculiar velocity effects impact estimates for future detectors such as Einstein Telescope, Cosmic Explorer, the Big Bang Observer and DECIGO. The signal-to-noise ratio of the angular power spectrum of the average luminosity distance over all the redshift bins is 17 in the case of binary black holes detected by Einstein Telescope and Cosmic Explorer. We also provide fitting formulas for the corrections to the average luminosity distance due to general relativistic effects.

The renormalization group equations for large-scale structure (RG-LSS) describe how the bias and stochastic (noise) parameters — both of matter and biased tracers such as galaxies — evolve as a function of the cutoff Λ of the effective field theory. In previous work, we derived the RG-LSS equations for the bias parameters using the Wilson-Polchinski framework. Here, we extend these results to include stochastic contributions, corresponding to terms in the effective action that are higher order in the current J. We derive the general local interaction terms that describe stochasticity at all orders in perturbations, and a closed set of nonlinear RG equations for their coefficients. These imply that a single nonlinear bias term generates all stochastic moments through RG evolution. Further, the evolution is controlled by a different, lower scale than the nonlinear scale. This has implications for the optimal choice of the renormalization scale when comparing the theory with data to obtain cosmological constraints.

In this paper, we explore an extension of the classical non-standard cosmological scenario in which the new field, ϕ, which interacts with the radiation component in the early universe, experiences dissipative processes in the form of a bulk viscosity. Assuming an interaction term given by Γϕρϕ, where Γϕ accounts for the decay rate of the field and ρϕ corresponds to its energy density, and a bulk viscosity according to the expression ξ=ξ0ρϕϕ1/2 in the framework of Eckart's theory, we apply this novel non-standard cosmology to study the parameters space for WIMPs Dark Matter candidate production. This parameter space shows deviations from the classical non-standard cosmological scenario, obtaining new regions to search for this candidate. In particular, for certain combinations of the free parameters, we found large regions in which the model can establish the DM and reproduce the current observable relic density.

We present a novel combination of the excursion-set approach with the peak theory formalism in Lagrangian space and provide accurate predictions for halo and void statistics over a wide range of scales. The set-up is based on an effective moving barrier. Besides deriving the corresponding numerical multiplicity function, we introduce a new analytical formula reaching the percent level agreement with the exact numerical solution obtained via Monte Carlo realisations down to small scales, ∼ 1012h-1M⊙. In the void case, we derive the dependence of the effective moving barrier on the void formation threshold, δv, by comparison against the Lagrangian void size function measured in the DEMNUni simulations. We discuss the mapping from Lagrangian to Eulerian space for both haloes and voids; adopting the spherical symmetry approximation, we obtain a strong agreement at intermediate and large scales. Finally, using the effective moving barrier, we derive Lagrangian void density profiles accurately matching measurements from cosmological simulations, a major achievement towards using void profiles for precision cosmology with the next generation of galaxy surveys.

We quantitatively analyze a basic question: what is the stationary solution of the background plasma temperature profile around a black hole (BH)? One may naively expect that the temperature profile continuously decreases from the Hawking temperature at the surface of the BH towards an outer region. We show analytically and numerically that this is not the case because local thermal equilibrium cannot be maintained near the surface of the BH and also because the high-energy particles emitted from Hawking radiation cannot be instantaneously thermalized into the background plasma. The temperature profile has a plateau within a finite distance from the BH, and even the overall amplitude of background temperature at a distance far away from the BH is significantly suppressed compared with the naive expectation. The main reason for these counterintuitive results comes from the fact that the size of the BH is too small that particles of Hawking radiation goes far away within the typical time scale of interactions.

The gravitational lensing of supermassive black holes surrounded by dark matter halo has attracted a great number of interests in recent years. However, many studies employed simplified dark matter density models, which makes it very hard to give a precise prediction on the dark matter effects in real astrophysical galaxies. In this work, to more accurately describe the distribution of dark matter in real astrophysical galaxies, we study the gravitational lensing of black holes in astrophysical dark matter halo models (Beta, Burkert, Brownstein, and Moore). The deflection angle is obtained using a generalized Gibbons-Werner approach. The visual angular positions and the Einstein rings are also calculated by adopting the gravitational lens equation. Specifically, we choose the supermassive black holes in Milky Way Galaxy, Andromeda galaxy (M31), Virgo galaxy (M87), and ESO138-G014 galaxy as examples, including the corresponding fitted value of dark matter halos. The results suggest that the dark matter halo described by the Beta model has non-negligible influences on the gravitational deflection angle and gravitational lensing observations. However, the Burkert, Brownstein, and Moore models have relatively small influences on angular position of images and the Einstein ring.
近年来，被暗物质光环包围的超大质量黑洞的引力透镜现象引起了人们的极大兴趣。然而，许多研究都采用了简化的暗物质密度模型，这就很难对真实天体星系中的暗物质效应给出精确的预测。在这项工作中，为了更精确地描述暗物质在真实天体物理星系中的分布，我们研究了天体物理暗物质光环模型（Beta、Burkert、Brownstein 和 Moore）中黑洞的引力透镜效应。偏转角是通过广义吉本斯-沃纳（Gibbons-Werner）方法获得的。视角位置和爱因斯坦环也是通过引力透镜方程计算得出的。具体来说，我们选取了银河系、仙女座星系（M31）、室女座星系（M87）和ESO138-G014星系中的超大质量黑洞为例，包括暗物质晕的相应拟合值。结果表明，贝塔模型所描述的暗物质晕对引力偏转角和引力透镜观测有不可忽略的影响。然而，Burkert、Brownstein 和 Moore 模型对图像角位置和爱因斯坦环的影响相对较小。

In this work we have investigated the synergy between Stage-IV galaxy surveys and future GW observatories for constraining the underlying cosmological model of the Universe, focussing on photometric galaxy clustering, cosmic shear and GW magnification as cosmological probes. We have implemented a Fisher matrix approach for the evaluation of the full 6×2pt statistics composed by the angular power spectra of the single probes together with their combination. For our analysis, we have in particular considered dynamical dark energy and massive neutrino scenarios. We have found that the improvement to galaxy survey performance is below 1%, in the case of ℓGWmax=100 and a luminosity distance error of σdL/dL=10%. However, when extending the analysis to ℓGWmax=1000, we find that the GW magnification improves the galaxy survey performance on all the cosmological parameters, reducing their errors by 3%-5%, when σdL/dL=10%, and by 10%-18% when σdL/dL=1%, especially for Mν, w0 and wa. However, here our analysis is unavoidably optimistic: a much more detailed and realistic approach will be needed, especially by including systematic effects. But we can conclude that, in the case of future gravitational wave observatories, the inclusion of the gravitational wave magnification can improve Stage-IV galaxy surveys performance on constraining the underlying cosmological model of the Universe.

Building on recently constructed inflationary vector dark matter production mechanisms as well as studies of magnetogenesis, we show that an inflationary dark Schwinger mechanism can generate the observed dark matter relic abundance for `dark electron' masses as light as ∼ 0.1 eV and as heavy as 1012 GeV. The dark matter can interact very weakly via the exchange of light dark photons with a power spectrum which is peaked at very small scales, thus evading isocurvature constraints. This mechanism is viable even when (purely) gravitational particle production is negligible. Thus dark matter can be produced solely via the Schwinger effect during inflation including for light masses.

This paper investigates Everpresent Λ, a stochastic dark energy model motivated by causal set theory and unimodular gravity, and confronts it with two key observational data sets, Supernova Ia (SN Ia) and Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) data. A key feature of this model is that Λ fluctuates over time and on average the magnitude of its fluctuations is of the order of the dominant energy density (be it radiation or matter) for the given epoch. In particular, we focus on a phenomenological implementation of Everpresent Λ known as Model 1. The random fluctuations in Everpresent Λ realizations are generated using seed numbers, and we find that for a small fraction of seeds Model 1 is capable of producing realizations that fit SN Ia data better than ΛCDM. We further investigate what features distinguish these realizations from the more general behaviour, and find that the “good” realizations have relatively small fluctuations at low redshifts (z < 1.5), which do not closely track the matter density. We find that Model 1 struggles to improve on ΛCDM at describing the CMB data. However, by suppressing the values of Λ near the last scattering surface, as suggested in [1], we find a large improvement in the best fit of the model, though still with a χ2 value much larger than that of ΛCDM. We also study the allowed variation of the dark energy density by the CMB constraints in a more model-independent manner, and find that some variation (especially prior to recombination) is possible and in fact can lead to improvement over ΛCDM and reduce the Hubble tension, in line with some early dark energy proposals. However, for the kinds of variations considered, the favoured fluctuations are smaller in magnitude than is typical in current Everpresent Λ models.

The minimal U(1)Lμ-Lτ gauge symmetry extended Standard Model (SM) is a well motivated framework that resolves the discrepancy between the theoretical prediction and experimental observation of muon anomalous magnetic moment. We envisage the possibility of identifying the beyond Standard Model Higgs of U(1)Lμ-Lτ sector, non-minimally coupled to gravity, as the inflaton in the early universe, while being consistent with the (g-2)μ data. Although the structure seems to be trivial, we observe that taking into consideration of a complete cosmological history starting from inflation through the reheating phase to late-time epoch along with existing constraints on U(1)Lμ-Lτ gauge symmetry extended Standard Model (SM) is a well motivated framework that resolves the discrepancy between the theoretical prediction and experimental observation of muon anomalous magnetic moment. We envisage the possibility of identifying the beyond Standard Model Higgs of U(1)LμLτ model parameters leave us a small window of allowed reheating temperature. This further results into restriction of (ns-r) plane which is far severe than the one in a generic non-minimal quartic inflationary set up.

We envisage the possibility of identifying the beyond Standard Model Higgs of U(1)Lμ-Lτ sector, non-minimally coupled to gravity, as the inflaton in the early universe, while being consistent with the (g-2)μ data. Although the structure seems to be trivial, we observe that taking into consideration of a complete cosmological history starting from inflation through the reheating phase to late-time epoch along with existing constraints on U(1)Lμ-Lτ gauge symmetry extended Standard Model (SM) is a well motivated framework that resolves the discrepancy between the theoretical prediction and experimental observation of muon anomalous magnetic moment. We envisage the possibility of identifying the beyond Standard Model Higgs of U(1)LμLτ model parameters leave us a small window of allowed reheating temperature.
