摘要： The Hubble tension seems to be a crisis with $\sim5\sigma$ discrepancy between the most recent local distance ladder measurement from type Ia supernovae calibrated by Cepheids and the global fitting constraint from the cosmic microwave background data. To narrow down the possible late-time solutions to the Hubble tension, we have used in a recent study [Phys. Rev. D 105, L021301 (2022)] an improved inverse distance ladder method calibrated by the absolute measurements of the Hubble expansion rate at high redshifts from the cosmic chronometer data, and found no appealing evidence for new physics at the late time beyond the $\Lambda$CDM model characterized by a parametrization based on the cosmic age. In this paper, we further investigate the perspective of this improved inverse distance ladder method by including the late-time matter perturbation growth data. Independent of the dataset choices, model parametrizations, and diagnostic quantities ($S_8$ and $S_{12}$), the new physics at the late time beyond the $\Lambda$CDM model is strongly disfavored so that the previous late-time no-go guide for the Hubble tension is further strengthened.

摘要： The Hubble tension, if not caused by any systematics, could be relieved or even resolved from modifying either the early-time or late-time Universe. The early-time modifications are usually in tension with either galaxy clustering or galaxy lensing constraints. The late-time modifications are also in conflict with the constraint from the inverse distance ladder, which, however, is weakened by the dependence on a sound-horizon prior and some particular approximation for the late-time expansion history. To achieve a more general no-go argument for the late-time scenarios, we propose to use a global parametrizationbased on the cosmic age (PAge) to consistently use the cosmic chronometers data beyond the Taylor expansion domain and without the input of a sound-horizon prior. Both the early-time and late-time scenarios are therefore largely ruled out, indicating the possible ways out of the Hubble tension from either exotic modifications of our concordance Universe or some unaccounted systematics.

摘要： We propose a scheme to study the nonlinear propagation properties of nonlinear surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in a three level $\Lambda$ type electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) system with modulation of a rectangular barrier. Based on the multi scale method, the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLSE) describing nonlinear propagation of SPPs is derived, and the rectangular barrier affecting propagation of nonlinear SPPs is provided by an off-resonance Stark field. For the single nonlinear SPPs incident case, by adjusting the height and half width of the barrier, we can realize transmission, trapping and reflection of the nonlinear SPPs. For two nonlinear SPPs symmetrical incident case, we find that a periodic intensity distribution in transverse direction mode can be excited in the rectangular barrier, and we study the relationship between propagation properties of such excited modes in the barrier with nonlinearity, half width of the barrier and phase difference of the initial nonlinear SPPs. In addition, we design an optical switch of nonlinear SPPs based on the above results. The results obtained here not only provide a theoretical basis for the study of the interaction between nonlinear SPPs and external potentials, but also have broad application prospects in the field of optical information at micro/nano scale.
