abstract

Does Nature yield any manifestations of parity violation other than those observed in weak interactions? A map of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature and polarization will provide a new signature of P violation. We give two examples of new P violating interactions, which may have something to do with Planck-scale physics, inflation, and/or quintessence, that would give rise to such a signature. Although these effects would most likely elude detection by MAP and the Planck Surveyor, they may be detectable with a future dedicated CMB polarization experiment.

Gravitational Wave Birefringence from Fuzzy Dark Matter

gr-qc · 2024-06-19 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Fuzzy dark matter induces frequency-dependent amplitude birefringence in gravitational waves with periodic time modulation set by the scalar mass, but no velocity birefringence.

Transient Parity Violation during Inflation: Implications for PTA Gravitational Waves

astro-ph.CO · 2026-04-29 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

A transient parity-violating phase during inflation generates a robust blue-tilted (n_T ≃ 2) primordial gravitational wave spectrum at small scales with nearly maximal helicity coherence and linear polarization, offering a cosmological template for PTA data distinct from astrophysical sources.

On the potential of pseudo-scalar dark energy

astro-ph.CO · 2026-06-08 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

Extended analysis constrains pseudo-scalar dark energy potentials using expansion history and cosmic birefringence, finding quadratic, linear, and Ratra-Peebles forms viable near GUT scale while axion-like requires large anomaly coefficient.

CMB Birefringence from Vacuum Interfaces

hep-th · 2026-05-11 · conditional · novelty 4.0

CMB polarization rotation can arise as a frequency-independent Pancharatnam phase when photons cross dark-sector vacuum interfaces, with no ultralight axion required.

The Quintom theory of dark energy after DESI DR2

astro-ph.CO · 2025-05-30 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

This review traces the history of dynamical dark energy, presents the no-go theorem against single-field crossing of w = -1, and surveys viable Quintom constructions including multi-field models and modified gravity in light of DESI DR2 hints.

A short review on Quintom dark energy theory

astro-ph.CO · 2026-05-31 · conditional · novelty 2.0

A review arguing that current DESI/DES data favor Quintom-B dark energy, where the equation of state crosses w=-1 from below to above, with applications to bounces and CMB birefringence.

The Hubble Tension and Early Dark Energy

astro-ph.CO · 2022-11-08 · unverdicted · novelty 2.0

The Hubble tension between local and early-universe expansion-rate measurements may be resolved by early dark energy that speeds up expansion before recombination while satisfying existing constraints.
