Light Propagation through Large-scale Inhomogeneities in the Universe and Its Impact on Cosmological Observations

This paper analyses cosmological observations within inhomogeneous and exact solutions of the Einstein equations. In some way the analyses presented here can be freed from assumptions such as small amplitude of the density contrast. The supernova observations are analysed using the Lemâıtre–Tolman model and the CMB observations are analysed using the quasispherical Szekeres model. The results s...

Large Scale Baryon Isocurvature Inhomogeneities

Big bang nucleosynthesis constraints on baryon isocurvature perturbations are determined. A simple model ignoring the effects of the scale of the perturbations is first reviewed. This model is then extended to test the claim that large amplitude perturbations will collapse, forming compact objects and preventing their baryons from contributing to the observed baryon density. It is found that ba...

Apparent Acceleration through Large-scale Inhomogeneities Post-Friedmannian Effects of Inhomogeneities on the Luminosity Distance

We re-analyze the observed magnitude-redshift relation of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and examine the possibility that the apparent acceleration of the cosmic expansion is not caused by dark energy but is instead a consequence of the large-scale inhomogeneities in the universe. We propose a method to phenomenologically describe the effects of the large-scale inhomogeneities without relying on t...

Apparent Acceleration through the Large-scale Inhomogeneities Post-Friedmannian effects of inhomogeneities on the luminosity distance

We re-analyze the observed magnitude-redshift relation of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and examine the possibility that the apparent acceleration of the cosmic expansion is not caused by dark energy, but is a consequence of large-scale inhomogeneities in the universe. We propose a method to describe phenomenologically the effects of the large-scale inhomogeneities, without depending on the speci...

Large scale inhomogeneities from the QCD phase transition.

We examine the first-order cosmological QCD phase transition for a large class of parameter values, previously considered unlikely. We find that the hadron bubbles can nucleate at very large distance scales, they can grow as detonations as well as deflagrations, and that the phase transition may be completed without reheating to the critical temperature. For a subset of the parameter values stu...
