Concordance Cosmology SN Ia CMB LSS – Baryonic Oscillations Cluster counts Weak Lensing Integrated Sachs Wolfe Physical effects: * Geometry * Growth of Structure
3
Massive Neutrinos and Cosmology * Why bother? – absolute mass, effect on other parameters * Brief history of ‘Hot Dark Matter’ * Limits on the total Neutrino mass from cosmology within CDM M < 1 eV * Mixed Dark Matter? * Non-linear power spectrum and biasing – halo model * Combined cosmological observations and laboratory experiments
4
Brief History of ‘Hot Dark Matter’ * 1970s : Top-down scenario with massive neutrinos (HDM) – Zeldovich Pancakes * 1980s: HDM - Problems with structure formation * 1990s: Mixed CDM (80%) + HDM (20% ) * 2000s: Baryons (4%) + CDM (26%) +Lambda (70%): But now we know HDM exists! How much?
5
Globalisation and the New Cosmology How is the New Cosmology affected by Globalisation? Recall the Cold War era: Hot Dark Matter/top-down (East) vs. Cold Dark Matter/bottom-up (West) Is the agreement on the `concordance model’ a product of Globalisation? OL, astro-ph/0610713

From Great Walls to Neutrino Masses
7
Neutrinos decoupled when they were still relativistic, hence they wiped out structure on small scales k > k nr = 0.026 (m /1 eV) 1/2 m 1/2 h/Mpc Colombi, Dodelson, & Widrow 1995 WDMCDM+HDM CDM Massive neutrinos mimic a smaller source term
10
Neutrino properties The number of neutrino species N affects the expansion rate of the universe, hence BBN. BBN constraints N between 1.7 and 3 (95% CL) (e.g. Barger et al. 2003). From CMB+LSS+SN Ia, N =4.2 +1.2 -1.7 (95% CL) (Hannestad 2005) We shall assume N =3 neutrinos Electron, muon and tau neutrinos Eigen states Eigen states m 1, m 2, m 3 neutrinos per cm 3 h eV

Neutrino Mass Hierarchy
12
Absolute Masses of Neutrinos Based on measured squared mass differences from solar and atmospheric oscillations Assuming m 1 < m 2 < m 3 E & L, NJP 05
13
What could cosmic probes tell us about Neutrinos and Dark Energy?
14
The Growth factor: degeneracy of Neutrinos Mass and Dark Energy Kiakotou, Elgaroy, OL
15
Kiakotou, Elgaroy, OL 2007, astro-ph 0709.0253 P(k)/P(k) = -8 m Not valid on useful scales!
16
Weighing Neutrinos with 2dFGRS Free streaming effect: / m < 0.13 Total mass M< 1.8 eV (Oscillations) (2dF) a Four-Component Universe ? Elgaroy, Lahav & 2dFGRS team, astro-ph/0204152, PRL = 0.05 0.01 0.00
17
What do we mean by ‘systematic uncertainties’? Cosmological (parameters and priors) Astrophysical (e.g. Galaxy biasing) Instrumental (e.g. ‘seeing’)
18
Degeneracy of neutrino mass n= 0.9 n= 1.1 n=1.0 Prior 0< m <0.5
19
Biasing vs. neutrino mass Elgaroy & Lahav, JCAP, astro-ph/030389 ---- SAM for L>0.75 L* P g (k) = b 2 (k) P m (k) b(k) = a log(k) + c a Total neutrino mass
20
Weak Lensing is promising Abazajian & Dodelson (2003) also Hannestad et al. 2006
21
Non-linear P(k) with massive neutrinos Abazajian et al. (astro-ph/0411552) modeled the effects of neutrino infall into CDM halos and incorporated it in the halo model. The effect is small: P(k)/P(k) » 1% at k » 0.5 h/Mpc for M » 1 eV Future work : high-resolution simulations with CDM, baryons and neutrinos
22
CMB with massive E&L 2004 E&L 2004 M =0.3, 0.9, 1.5, 6.0 eV Fixed cdm = 0.26
23
Neutrinos masses and the CMB If z nr > z rec h 2 > 0.017 (i.e. M > 1.6 eV) Then neutrinos behave like matter - this defines a critical value in CMB features * Ichikawa et al. (2004 ) from WMAP1 alone M < 2.0 eV * Fukugita et al. (2006) from WMAP3 alone M < 2.0 eV
24
Normalization vs neutrino mass using WMAP alone + concordance model
25
Is CMB polarisation useful for neutrino mass? Fukugita, Ichikawa, Kawasaki, OL, astro-ph/0605362 Not directly, but reduces degeneracy with the reionization optical depth
26
Ratio of bulk flows with massive neutrinos =0.04

Neutrinos - Summary * Redshift surveys (+ CMB) M < 0.7-1.8 eV Ly- (+ CMB+LSS) M < 0.17 eV * Within the -CDM scenarios, subject to priors. * Alternatives: MDM ruled out. * Future: errors down to 0.05 eV using SDSS+Planck, and weak gravitational lensing of background galaxies and of the CMB. Resolve the neutrino absolute mass!

* 4-5 complementary probes * Survey strategy delivers substantial DE science after 2 years * Relatively modest (~ $20-30M), low-risk, near-term project with high discovery potential * Synergy with SPT and VISTA on the DETF Stage III timescale * Scientific and technical precursor to the more ambitious Stage IV Dark Energy projects to follow: LSST and JDEM DES and a Dark Energy Programme
44
Some Outstanding Questions : * Vacuum energy (cosmological constant, w= -1.000 after all ?) * Dynamical scalar field ? * Modified gravity ? * Why / m = 3 ? * Non-zero Neutrino mass < 1eV ? * The exact value of the spectral index: n < 1 ? * Excess power on large scales ? * Is the curvature zero exactly ?
