Viscous RDE C. J. Feng and X. Z. Li, Phys. Lett. B 680, 355(2009),arXiv:0905.0527. n Age parameter for LCDM: T (z) = z dz (1 + z )[Ω m0 (1 + z) 3 + (1 Ω m0 )] 1/2, hence, it easily satisfied the constraint t n Age for RDE 11 12 Gyr, Fig. 2. The evolution of age of the universe in RDE model with α = 0.46 (solid), 0.76 (dashed), 1.0 (dot-dashed). Here h = 0.72 and Ω m0 = 0.27 are used. α < 1/3 will make the perturbation unstable, see [5].
Result for Viscous RDE Age problem is alleviated Fig. 3. The evolution of age of the universe in the viscous RDE model with α = 0.46 and τ m = 0 (solid), 0.03 (dashed), 0.06 (dot-dashed). Here h = 0.72 and Ω m0 = 0.27 are used.
Fig. 1. The total age of the universe in RDE model with respect to parameter α. Here h = 0.72 and Ω m0 = 0.20 (solid), 0.27 (dashed), 0.32 (dotted) are used. The horizontal shadow corresponds to the stellar age bound, namely t 0 = 10 12 Gyr. [ ]
Conclusion n Viscosity seems a way to alleviate age problem! n What s dark energy? n Future observational results are required!
