The growth index $\gamma$ is an interesting tool to assess the phenomenology of dark energy (DE) models, in particular of those beyond general relativity (GR). We investigate the possibility for DE models to allow for a constant $\gamma$…
We study the growth of linear perturbations induced by a generic causal scaling source as a function of the cosmological parameters $h$, $\Omega^m_0$ and $\Omega^\Lambda_0$. We show that for wavenumbers $k \gsim 0.01 h/Mpc$ the spectrum of…
