Limits on evolution of the fine-structure constant in runaway dilaton models from Sunyaev–Zeldovich observations

In this paper, new bounds on possible variations of the fine structure constant, α, for a class of runaway dilaton models are performed. By considering a possible evolution with redshift, z, such as Δαα=−γln⁡(1+z), where in γ are the physical properties of the model, we constrain this parameter by u...
