Abstract

We compare the WMAP temperature power spectrum and SNIa data to models with a generalized Chaplygin gas as dark energy. The generalized Chaplygin gas is a component with an exotic equation of state, p X = − A /ρ α X (a polytropic gas with negative constant and exponent). Our main result is that, restricting to a flat universe and to adiabatic pressure perturbations for the generalized Chaplygin gas, the constraints at 95% CL to the present equation of state w X = p X /ρ X and to the parameter α are −1 ⩽ w X < −0.8, 0 ⩽ α < 0.2, respectively. Moreover, we show that a Chaplygin gas (α = 1) is ruled out as a candidate for dark energy by our analysis at more than the 99.99% CL. A generalized Chaplygin gas appears much less likely as a unified dark matter candidate (Ω CDM = 0) than as a dark energy model, although its χ 2 is only two sigma away from the expected value.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
