Dark Energy Observables
Making Light of the Dark Side Line element: ds 2 = a 2 [(1 2Φ)dη 2 (1 + 2Φ)(dD 2 + D 2 AdΩ)] where η is the conformal time, D comoving distance, D A the comoving angular diameter distance and Φ the gravitational potential Dark components visible in their influence on the metric elements a and Φ general relativity considers these the same: consistency relation for gravity Light propagates on null geodesics: in the background D = η; around structures according to lensing by Φ Matter dilutes with the expansion and (free) falls in the gravitational potential
Friedmann and Poisson Equations Friedmann equation: ( dln a dη ) 2 = 8πG 3 a2 ρ [ah(a)] 2 implying that the densities of dark components are visible in the distance-redshift relation (a = (1 + z) 1 ) D = Poisson equation: dη = d ln a ah(a) = 2 Φ = 4πGa 2 δρ dz H implying that the (comoving gauge) density field of the dark components is visible in the potential (lensing, motion of tracers).
Growth Rate Relativistic stresses in the dark energy can prevent clustering. If only dark matter perturbations δ m δρ m /ρ m are responsible for potential perturbations on small scales d 2 δ m + 2H(a) dδ m = 4πGρ dt 2 m (a)δ m dt In a flat universe this can be recast into the growth rate G(a) δ m /a equation which depends only on the properties of the dark energy [ d 2 G 5 d ln a + 2 2 3 ] dg 2 w(a)ω DE(a) d ln a + 3 2 [1 w(a)]ω DE(a) G = 0 with initial conditions G =const. Comparison of distance and growth tests dark energy smoothness and/or general relativity

Summary NeoClassical probes based on the evolution of structure CMB fixes deceleration epoch observables: expansion rate, energy densities, growth rate, absolute amplitude, volume elements General relativity predicts a consistency relation between deviations in distances and growth due to dark energy Leading dark energy distance observable is H 0 or equivalently w(z 0.4) Leading growth observable σ 8 measures dark energy (and neutrinos) Many NeoClassical tests can measure the evolution of w but all will require a control over systematic errors at the 1% Promising probes are beginning to bear fruit: cluster abundance, cosmic shear, galaxy clustering, galaxy galaxy lensing,
