abstract

We study a new type of effective interactions in terms of the $CPT$-even dimension-six Chern-Simons-like term, which could originate from superstring theory, to generate the cosmological birefringence. We use the neutrino number asymmetry to induce a sizable rotation polarization angle in the data of the cosmic microwave background radiation polarization. The combined effect of the new term and the neutrino asymmetry provides an alternative way to understand the birefringence.

  1. 3-form dark energy and cosmic birefringence

    astro-ph.CO 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    3-form dark energy can explain cosmic birefringence with a dimension-4 photon coupling, yielding redshift profiles that can mimic or differ from axion dark energy, but the implied photon mass estimate is numerically shaky.
