2 Motivation Best evidence for CDM comes from CMB CMB described by linear theory No messy astrophysics Very accurate observations Effects of CDM on CMB Pedagogical Can help to test properties of dark matter Can help to test GR A dust fluid does NOT imply particle dark matter. (EddingtonBornInfeld in yesterday s talk)

3 Why CMB indicates CDM third peak Planck Collaboration, 2015

15 CDM effect on CMB Baryons raise odd peaks relative to even peaks Increasing CDM density, moves equality forward in time Potentials decay during radiation era, constant in matter era Potential decay during tightcoupling (before recombination) drives the anisotropies Potential decay after recombination boosts anisotropies due to the Integrated SachsWolfe effect GR+baryons CDM TeVeS effect of CDM

16 Beyond CDM Properties of dark matter: Generalized Dark Matter (W. Hu 1998)! Assume CDM but test GR! Try to replace CDM with a modification of GR

29 Conclusion 3rd peak in CMB spectrum appears raised: indication for CDM Why? Potentials decay during radiation domination Potentials stay constant during matter domination Potential decay enhances anisotropies through acoustic driving (tightcoupling) and ISW effect (freestreaming) CDM puts CMB into matter era least potential decay suppresses 1st and 2nd peak so that 3rd peak appears raised. Can be used to test nonstandard properties of CDM and test GR Very difficult (if not impossible) to have radical departures from CDM (anything non CDM leads to potential evolution)

30 Conclusion Natural to consider extensions of CDM, with nonzero equation of state, speed of sound and viscosity. Generalised Dark Matter (GDM) model (W. Hu) is a phenomenological model providing this. Realistic theories may be approximated by GDM under certain conditions. of which we highlight the effective appearance of GDM parameters from pure CDM through integrating out small wavelengths (EFT of LSS) Planck 2015 constrains constant GDM parameters: <w< c 2 s < at 99.7% CL c 2 vis <
