Accelerating Universe and Event Horizon
It has been argued in the literature that if a universe is expanding with an accelerating rate indefinitely, it presents a challenge to string theories due to the existence of event horizons. We study the fate of a currently accelerating universe. We show that the universe will continue to accelerate indefinitely if the parameter ω = p/ρ of the equation of state is a constant, no matter how man...
متن کاملA Local Void and the Accelerating Universe
Corresponding to the recent observational claims that we are in a local void (an underdense region) on scales of 200 − 300 Mpc, the magnitude-redshift relation in a cosmological model with a local void is investigated. It is already evident that the accelerating behavior of high-z supernovae can be explained in this model, because the local void plays a role similar to the positive cosmological...

متن کاملQuintessence and the Accelerating Universe
Observations seem to indicate that our universe is presently accelerating due to the presence of dark energy. Quintessence represents a possible way to model the dark energy. In these proceedings, we briefly review its main properties.
متن کاملSterile Neutrino and Accelerating Universe
If all three neutrino oscillation data were to be confirmed in the near future, it is probable that one might need a sterile neutrino, in addition to the three active ones. This sterile neutrino, νS , would be very light with mass mνS ≤ 1eV or even with mνS ∼ 10 eV according to some scenarios. Why would it be so light? On another front, recent cosmological observations and analyses appear to in...
