As has been pointed out by Cohen, Kaplan, and Nelson (CKN), such effects lead to interdependent ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) cutoffs that may stabilize the dark energy of the universe against quantum corrections, if the IR cutoff is set by the Hubble horizon. As a consequence of the cosmic expansion, this argument implies a time-dependent dark energy density. In this paper we confront this idea with recent data from DESI BAO, Hubble and supernova measurements. We find that the CKN model provides a better fit to the data than the Lambda CDM model and can compete with other models of time-dependent dark energy that have been studied so far.", optnote="WOS:001319332300014", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=6303), last updated on Wed, 30 Oct 2024 08:54:04 +0000", issn="1475-7516", doi="10.1088/1475-7516/2024/08/048", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.09964", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1088/1475-7516/2024/08/048", language="English" }
