An inhomogeneous fractal cosmological model
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a cosmological model in which the metric allows for an inhomogeneous Universe with no intrinsic symmetries (Stephani models), providing the ideal features to describe a fractal distribution of matter. Constraints on the metric functions are derived using the expansion and redshift relations and allowing for scaling number counts, as expected in a fractal set. The main characteristics of such a cosmological model are discussed. PACS numbers: 98.80.-k, 98.65.Dx, 0.5.45.Df

Inhomogeneous spacetimes as a dark energy model
Tolman-Bondi inhomogeneous spacetimes are used as a cosmological model for type Ia supernova data. It is found that with certain parameter choices the model fits the data as well as the standard ΛCDM cosmology does. Inhomogeneous spacetimes as a dark energy model 2
متن کاملLocal angular fractal and galaxy distribution
The power-law dependence of the angle in the angular projection of galaxy distribution is explained by assuming that in the spherical shells within a small angle the distributions are also fractal, this local angular fractal gives the so-called local isotropy a precise meaning and thus realizes the Cosmological Principle in a fractal model in a rather strict way. If it possesses local angular f...

Patterns formed by the flow of an inhomogeneous fluid (suspension) over a smooth inclined surface were studied. It was observed that fractal patterns formed. There exists a threshold angle for the inclination above which, global fractal patterns are formed. This angle depends on the particle size of the suspension. We observed that there are two fractal dimensions for these patterns, dependin...
متن کاملTesting Homogeneity on Large Scales
We review observational tests for the homogeneity of the Universe on large scales. Redshift and peculiar velocity surveys, radio sources, the X-Ray Background, the Lyman-α forest and the Cosmic Microwave Background are used to set constraints on inhomogeneous models and in particular on fractal-like models. Assuming the Cosmological Principle and the FRW metric, we estimate cosmological paramet...
