Astronomical constraints on the cosmic evolution of the fine structure constant and possible quantum dimensions.

We present measurements of absorption by the 21 cm hyperfine transition of neutral hydrogen toward radio sources at substantial look-back times. These data are used in combination with observations of rotational transitions of common interstellar molecules to set limits on the evolution of the fine structure constant: alpha/ alpha<3.5x10(-15) yr(-1), to a look-back time of 4.8 Gyr. In the conte...

Varying Fine-Structure Constant and the Cosmological Constant Problem1

We start with a brief account of the latest analysis of the Oklo phenomenon providing the still most stringent constraint on time-variability of the fine-structure constant α. Comparing this with the recent result from the measurement of distant QSO’s appears to indicate a non-uniform time-dependence, which we argue to be related to another recent finding of the accelerating universe. This view...

Cosmic Concordance and Quintessence

We present a comprehensive study of the observational constraints on spatially flat cosmological models containing a mixture of matter and quintessence — a time varying, spatially inhomogeneous component of the energy density of the universe with negative pressure. Our study also includes the limiting case of a cosmological constant. We classify the observational constraints by red shift: low r...
