Bayesian analysis of CCDM Models

Published 13 Dec 2016 in astro-ph.CO and gr-qc | (1612.04077v2)

Abstract: Creation of Cold Dark Matter (CCDM), in the context of Einstein Field Equations, leads to negative creation pressure, which can be used to explain the accelerated expansion of the Universe. In this work we tested six different spatially flat models for matter creation using statistical tools, at light of SN Ia data: Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) and Bayesian Evidence (BE). These approaches allow to compare models considering goodness of fit and number of free parameters, penalizing excess of complexity. We find that JO model is slightly favoured over LJO/$\Lambda$CDM model, however, neither of these, nor $\Gamma=3\alpha H_0$ model can be discarded from the current analysis. Three other scenarios are discarded either from poor fitting, either from excess of free parameters.
