Spatial homogeneity and redshift-distance laws.
Spatial homogeneity in the radial direction of low-redshift galaxies is subjected to Kafka-Schmidt V/V(m) tests using well-documented samples. Homogeneity is consistent with the assumption of the Lundmark (quadratic redshift-distance) law, but large deviations from homogeneity are implied by the assumption of the Hubble (linear redshift-distance) law. These deviations are similar to what would ...
متن کاملLeibniz’s Laws of Continuity and Homogeneity
From the Characteristica Universalis to Ideal Entities Leibniz envisioned the creation of a universal language, characteristica universalis, ambitiously designed to serve as the vehicle for deduction and discovery in all fields of knowledge. Couturat [10] pointed out in 1901 that, in Leibniz’s vision, the infinitesimal calculus was but the first salvo, or sample, of his characteristica universa...
متن کاملThe redshift-distance relation.
Key predictions of the Hubble law are inconsistent with direct observations on equitable complete samples of extragalactic sources in the optical, infrared, and x-ray wave bands-e.g., the predicted dispersion in apparent magnitude is persistently greatly in excess of its observed value, precluding an explanation via hypothetical perturbations or irregularities. In contrast, the predictions of t...
متن کاملDistance-Redshift in Inhomogeneous FLRW
We give distance–redshift relations in terms of elliptic integrals for three different mass distributions of the Friedmann-Lemâitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) cosmology. These models are dynamically pressure free FLRW on large scales but, due to mass inhomogeneities, differ in their optical properties. They are the filled-beam model (standard FLRW), the empty-beam model (no mass density exists in ...
متن کاملInhomogeneities and the Intergalactic Distance-Redshift Relation
Abstract. Modifications in Friedmann-Lemâitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) Hubble diagrams caused by mass density inhomogeneities are used to illustrate possible effects on a determination of the mass parameter Ωm and the cosmological constant Λ. The values of these parameters inferred from a given set of observations depend on the fractional amount of matter in inhomogeneities and can differ from t...
