The Big Puzzle

Dark Energy? Like during primordial inflation, scalar fields can trigger the late acceleration of the universe. An attractive possibility: runaway behaviour. The mass of the field now is of order of the Hubble rate. Almost massless.

New Scales in Physics Mass of the scalar field on cosmological scales. Dark energy scale The dark energy scale is tantalizingly close to the neutrino mass scale and the scale at which gravity has been tested…

Do Scalars Couple to Matter? Effective field theories with gravity and scalars Coupling of scalar to matter: Motivated by extra- dimensions, f(R) models…

Gravitational Tests Non-existent fifth force if the scalar field has a mass greater than If not, strong bound from Cassini experiments on the gravitational coupling: If coupling O(1) need new mechanism

The Chameleon Mechanism When coupled to matter, scalar fields have a matter dependent effective potential:

Chameleon field: field with a matter dependent mass A way to reconcile gravity tests and cosmology: Nearly massless field on cosmological scales Massive field in the laboratory

New Scales in Physics Typical scale of chameleon mass in in collider vacuum.

Gauge Coupling When the coupling to matter is universal, and heavy fermions are integrated out, a gauge coupling is induced. Other contribution from conformal anomaly too.

Effective Action and Couplings The coupling involves two unknown coupling functions (gauge invariance): At one loop the relevant vertices are:

Z-Width Dark energy scalars being very light and coupling to the Z boson may lead to an increase of the Z width (similar to neutrinos). This leads to a weak bound on M greater than 60 GeV. Stronger bounds follow from precision tests.

Higgs Screening o As Higgs mass taken to infinity, should recover divergences of SM without Higgs: quadratic divergences of self-energy. Higgs mass acts as a loose cut-off so in principle: o Unfortunately it turns out that o Dark energy scalar like Higgs scalar: highly sensitive to high energy physics (UV completion): o o Large corrections O(1)??

Vacuum Polarisation Daisies Bridges Oblique Corrections

Rainbows, Daisies and Bridges Higher order corrections all suppressed. One loop contributions all momentum independent at leading order in

Self-Energy Corrections I The corrected propagator becomes: Measurements at low energy and the Z and W poles imply ten independent quantities. Three have to be fixed experimentally. One is not detectable hence six electroweak parameters: STUVWX

Self-Energy Corrections II The self energy can be easily calculated: The self energy parameters all involve quadratic divergences: For instance: The quadratic divergences cancel in all the precision tests:

Experimental Constraints mass Inverse Coupling

Dark Energy Screening Vacuum Polarisation sensitive to the UV region of phase space where the difference between the W and Z masses is negligible Gauge invariance implies the existence of only two coupling functions with no difference between the W and Z bosons in the massless limit (compared to the UV region) No difference between the different particle vacuum polarisations, hence no effects on the precision tests.

Higgs Production The dark energy scalar can also couple to the Higgs. This will influence the W fusion and W-Higgstrahlung production rates.

Higgs-Scalar Coupling The dark energy scalar field influences the Higgs wave function renormalisation. Other effects in to the gauge sector are suppressed as we have already seen.

Higgs self-energy Higgs-scalar Feynman rules Wave function renormalisation

The Higgs production rate is then modified: The new oblique parameter is: As expected, the dark energy correction is quadratically divergent depending on the cut-off of the theory. Hence, one might expect large deviations from the SM due to the presence of very light dark energy scalars.

Conclusions o When considering dark energy as resulting from an effective field theory, its coupling to matter as seen in the precision tests of the electro-weak physics is screened. This is due to the UV sensitivity of the vacuum polarisation and gauge invariance. o Possibility of large effects in the Higgs sector due to the mixing with the dark energy scalar.
