2 One of the most Chalenging problems in Physics Several cosmological observations demonstrated that the expansion of the universe is accelerating What is causing this acceleration? How can we learn more about this acceleration, the Dark Energy it implies, and the questions it raises? The Dark Energy asks the fundamental principles of our cosmological paradigm
3 Outline Fundamental Principles in Cosmology. Observational Evidences of Dark Energy. Nature of Dark Energy. Theoretical Interpretations: DE as a new exotic energy component or as a violation of a (Strong) Cosmological Principle or as an extension of GR. An «Iceberg» of Physical Theories behind the Dark Energy The hypothesis. Toward an unification of D and DE problems. A natural «dual GR» at cosmological scales Why the concordance model appears correct? A natural phantom dark energy dark matter as a time-dependent inertial mass Remarkable observational predictions Gravitation - icrophysics
4 Fundamental Principles in Cosmology The Principle of General Covariance: Generalization from Galileo to Einstein The Equivalence Principle: Universality of the free-fall ( inertial gravitational) (10-1 ). Einstein s General Relativity does not distinguish these two principles WEP: weak equivalence principle: Test bodies fall with the same acceleration independently of internal structure or composition SEP: Strong equivalence principle: Test bodies fall with the same acceleration independently of gravitational binding energy. 1 8πG R μν g μν R Λ g μν 4 T μν c Einstein s General Relativity is the standard model of gravitation Usually, the Cosmological Principle: Homogeneous and isotropic Universe From theoretical point of view, it means the dynamics of the Universe is given only by a(t) FLRW: ds dt dr a( t) + r dθ + r sin θ dφ 1 kr

S S grav [ g ] [ gμν ] + Si ψ i, Ai ( ), μν matter i (NO SEP, NO WEP) This will constitutes the starting point of the Abnormally Weighting Energy () Hypothesis.

17 Dark Energy as a relaxation of the Weak Equivalence Principle at cosmological scales: Toward an unification to D and DE For any set of constitutive coulings functions, A (), A (), the resulting couling function A has at least one extremum and there exists a finite value of the effective gravitational coupling constant G which is different from GR.

18 Dark Energy as a relaxation of the Weak Equivalence Principle at cosmological scales: Astrophysical discussion The violation of the WEP strongly depends on the ratio of usual matter energy density over. As both usual matter and clusters, this violation is different with the scale considered. Furthermore, the is assumed to be dark and its gravitational collapse will be therefore quite different due to the abscence of the dissipative processes that allows usual matter like baryons to cluster so much compared to D at low scales. The domination of usual matter over D at small scales, which is a consequence of the different physical processes to which baryons are submitted will tend to make the WEP well verified at small scales. The usual convergence mechanism toward GR with G * (Grav. Cst bare value) as an asymptotic value of the gravitational coupling constant is acting on scales where D is sub-dominant, i.e. at low scales. We therefore conjecture that t GR is verified on the very small (sub-galactic) scales at which hthe solar system or binary pulsar system constraints on GR have been established. We then interprete the Hubble diagram of far-away supernovae only in terms of cosmic acceleration without t corrections due to the variation of the gravitational ti constant t for compact, gravitationally bound objects. The precise computation of the deviations from GR with the scale would require a complexe study of the structure formation in this model.

27 A Keystone Between icrophysics and Gravitation? The most remarkable feature of our model is that, besides of its cosmological predictions, it allows us to deduce a new constraint relating microphysics and gravitation: To obtain the cosmological evolution described above, it is enough that the matter and coupling functions have to be inversely proportional: A ( ) A ( ) Where ρ R b ( t + ) is the ratio at which ordinaty matter and D ρ D densities freeze once the scalar field reaches the attractor Awe R From the cosmological data on supernovae, we find a R close to unity (at 68 % confidence level) l) R ( HST ), R ( SNLS)
28 A Keystone Between icrophysics and Gravitation? We deduce an intriguing relation between the constant mass of baryons m b and the changing D m D and gravitational strenght G c G ) G m m μ c ( x ) mb md ( xμ where the bar means the Earth laboratory value. N b D Although this relation does not fix the bare mass of D, it rules its scaling by imposing a conservation of the product of the gravitational charges of baryons and D. This phenomenological law, directly deduced from cosmological data and linking together gravitational scales and masses of baryons and invisible matter glimpes at the intimate nature of gravitation. The deep meaning of this relation constitutes a crucial question for the fundamental approaches that aim to unify gravity and microphysics with explicit space-time dependancies of masses and couplings.
