Non-adiabatic Chaplygin gas

Abstract: The split of a generalised Chaplygin gas with an equation of state p = -A/
ho^{alpha} into an interacting mixture of pressureless matter and a dark-energy component with equation of state p_{Lambda} = -
ho_{Lambda} implies the existence of non-adiabatic pressure perturbations. We demonstrate that the square of the effective (non-adiabatic) sound speed c_s of the medium is proportional to the ratio of the perturbations of the dark energy to those of the dark matter. Since, as demonstrated explicitly for the particular case alpha = -1/2, dark-energy perturbations are negligible compared with dark-matter perturbations on scales that are relevant for structure formation, we find |c_s^2| << 1. Consequently, there are no oscillations or instabilities which have plagued previous adiabatic Chaplygin-gas models.
