Resolving the Hubble tension with new early dark energy

F Niedermann, MS Sloth - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
New early dark energy (NEDE) is a component of vacuum energy at the electron volt scale,
which decays in a first-order phase transition shortly before recombination [F. Niedermann …

Cosmological perturbations in gravity

SH Chen, JB Dent, S Dutta, EN Saridakis - Physical Review D—Particles …, 2011 - APS
We investigate the cosmological perturbations in f (T) gravity. Examining the pure
gravitational perturbations in the scalar sector using a diagonal vierbein, we extract the …

f (T) gravity mimicking dynamical dark energy. Background and perturbation analysis

JB Dent, S Dutta, EN Saridakis - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate f (T) cosmology in both the background, as well as in the perturbation level,
and we present the general formalism for reconstructing the equivalent one-parameter …

Qualitative aspects of Kantowski–Sachs cosmologies with cosmological constant and stiff fluid

A Singh - The European Physical Journal Plus, 2023 - Springer
Abstract Homogeneous and anisotropic Kantowski–Sachs model sourced by a stiff fluid and
cosmological constant has been explored for different possible scenarios of the universe …

Observational constraints on Horava-Lifshitz cosmology

S Dutta, EN Saridakis - arxiv preprint arxiv:0911.1435, 2009 - arxiv.org
We use observational data from Type Ia Supernovae (SNIa), Baryon Acoustic Oscillations
(BAO), and Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), along with requirements of Big Bang …

Bubble clustering in cosmological first order phase transitions

D Pirvu, J Braden, MC Johnson - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
False vacuum decay in quantum mechanical first order phase transitions is a phenomenon
with wide implications in cosmology and presents interesting theoretical challenges. In the …

Time-varying neutrino mass from a supercooled phase transition: Current cosmological constraints and impact on the plane

CS Lorenz, L Funcke, E Calabrese, S Hannestad - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
In this paper we investigate a time-varying neutrino mass model, motivated by the mild
tension between cosmic microwave background (CMB) measurements of the matter …

Dark radiation emerging after big bang nucleosynthesis?

W Fischler, J Meyers - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2011 - APS
We show how recent data from observations of the cosmic microwave background may
suggest the presence of additional radiation density which appeared after big bang …

Big bang nucleosynthesis with a stiff fluid

S Dutta, RJ Scherrer - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2010 - APS
Models that lead to a cosmological stiff fluid component, with a density ρ S that scales as a-
6, where a is the scale factor, have been proposed recently in a variety of contexts. We …

Slow-roll k-essence

T Chiba, S Dutta, RJ Scherrer - … Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2009 - APS
We derive slow-roll conditions for thawing k-essence with a separable Lagrangian p (X, ϕ)=
F (X) V (ϕ). We examine the evolution of the equation of state parameter, w, as a function of …
