10 Cosmic Concordance Ω B = 0.04, Ω γ = 0.001, Ω DM = 0.23, Ω Λ = 0.73
11 In Wilson, Mathews, Fuller PRD(2007), Mathews, Lan, Kolda, PRD (2008). Lan, Mathews, Com. Phys.(2009) it was proposed that a unity of dark matter and dark energy might be explained if the dark energy could be produced from a delayed decaying dark-matter particle and just consider with the supernova-redshift constraint. We consider a simultaneous fit to the CMB, as a means to constrain this paradigm to unify dark matter and dark energy. We deduce constraints on the parameters characterizing decaying the dark matter cosmology by using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo method applied to the CMB data.
12 Cosmological Model - Cosmic Evolution Modified Friedmann equation in which we allow for flat and the usual cosmological constant Λ. H 2 = ȧ2 a 2 = 8πG 3 ρ + Λ 3 where, ρ is now composed of several terms (1) ρ = ρ DM + ρ b + ρ γ + ρ h + ρ r + ρ BV (2)
13 Cosmological Model - Cosmic Evolution ρ h = ρ h (t d )a 3 e (t t d )/τ d, (3) t ρ r = a 4 λρ h (t d ) e (t t d )/τ d a(t )dt t d, (4) t ρ BV = a 4 9 H 2 a(t ) 4 ζ(t )dt t d, (5) The integral term in the last equation gives the effective dissipated energy (Weinberg71) due to a cosmic bulk viscosity coefficient ζ. This term induces the cosmic acceleration once a model is formulated for the bulk viscosity coefficient ζ.
14 Cosmological model - Bulk Viscosity coefficient The effect of the bulk viscosity is to replace the fluid pressure with an effective pressure. p eff = p ζ3ȧ a. (6) ζ3ȧ = p, (7) a where p = p p is the difference between the constant volume equilibrium pressure and the actual fluid pressure.
15 Cosmological model - Bulk Viscosity coefficient p ( ) p (T M T ) = 4ρ [ γτ e 1 T n 3 ( )] 3 p U α ρ x α, (8) The timescale τ e to restore pressure equilibrium in an expanding cosmology from an initial pressure deficit of p(0) can be determined from, τ e = 0 p(t) p(0) dt Cτ d [1 + 3(ȧ/a)τ d ]. (9) where the coefficient C > 1 accounts for the possibility of higher corrections to the linearized transport equation. The final form for the bulk viscosity of the cosmic fluid is then (mathew 2010, Weinberg71), ζ = 4ρ [ hτ e 1 ρ ] l + ρ 2 γ. (10) 3 ρ
16 Statistical analysis with the observation data We have modified the publicly available CosmoMC package to satisfy this decaying dark matter model as described above. Following the usual prescription we then determine the best-fit values using the maximum likelihood method. We take the total likelihood function χ 2 = 2logL as the product of the separate likelihood functions of each data set and thus we write, χ 2 = χ 2 SN + χ2 CMB + χ2 LSS + χ2 BAO + χ2 CMB. (11)
17 Type supernovae data and constraint: D L = { c(1 + z) z dz [Ω Λ + Ω γ (z ) + Ω DM (z ) H 0 0 ] 1/2 } + Ω b (z ) + Ω h (z ) + Ω r (z ) + Ω BV (z ), (12) Ω Λ = Λ/3H0 2, Ω γ = (8πGρ m0 /3H0 2)(1 + z)4, Ω DM = (8πGρ DM /3H0 2 )(1 + z)3 Ω b = (8πGρ b /3H0 2)(1 + z)3,
18 Type supernovae data and constraint: This luminosity distance is related to the apparent magnitude of supernovae by the usual relation, m(z) = m(z) M = 5log 10 [D L (z)/mpc] + 25, (13) where m(z) is the distance modulus and M is the absolute magnitude which is assumed to be constant for type Ia supernovae standard candles. The χ 2 for type Ia supernovae is given by χ 2 SN = ΣN i,j=1[ m(z i ) obs m(z i ) th )] (C 1 SN ) ij[ m(z i ) obs m(z i ) th ] (14) Here C SN is the covariance matrix with systematic errors.

21 CMB constraint The characteristic angular scale θ A of the peaks of the angular power spectrum in CMB anisotropies is defined by Page et al 2003 θ A = r s(z ) r(z ) = π l A, (15) l A : acoustic scale z : the redshift at decoupling r(z ): the comoving distance at decoupling r s (z ): the comoving sound horizon distance at decoupling.
22 CMB constraint r(z) = c z dz H 0 0 H(z). (16) The quantity r s (z )is the comoving sound horizon distance at decoupling. z (1 + z) 2 R(z) r s (z ) = dz, (17) 0 H(z) where the sound speed distance R(z) is given by R(z) = [1 + 3Ω b0 4Ω γ0 (1 + z) 1 ] 1/2, (18) and the scale factor at re-ionization is a = z = z dz Ω m0 0 H(z ) where Ω 0 = 1 Ω k is the total closure parameter. (19)
23 CMB constraint the redshift at decoupling z proposed by Hu and Sugiyama 1996 z = 1048[ (Ω b0 h 2 ) 0.738][1 + g 1 (Ω 0 h 2 ) g2 ], (20) where g 1 = (Ω b0h 2 ) (Ω b0 h 2 ) 0.763, g 2 = (Ω b0 h 2 ) 1.81, (21) The χ 2 of the cosmic microwave background fit is constructed as χ 2 CMB = 2lnL = ΣX T (C 1 ) ij X Komatsu 2011 X T = (l A l WMAP A, R RA WMAP, z z WMAP ), (22) with l WMAP A = , R WMAP A = 1.725, and z WMAP =

30 Result and Conclusion We have studied the evolution of the delayed decaying dark matter model with bulk viscosity by using a MCMC analysis to fit the SNIa and CMB data. We find that this cosmology produces an equivalent fit to that of the standard ΛCDM model, but without a cosmological constant.
