چکیده
In the model of low-energy quantum gravity by the author, cosmological redshifts are caused by interactions of photons with gravitons. Non-forehead collisions with gravitons will lead to an additional relaxation of any photonic flux. Using only the luminosity distance and a geometrical one as functions of a redshift in this model, theoretical predictions for galaxy number counts are considered here. The Schechter luminosity function with α = −2.43 is used. The considered model provides a good fit to galaxy observations by Yasuda et al. (AJ, 122 (2001) 1104) if the same K-corrections are added. It is shown that observations of N(z) for different magnitudes m are a lot more informative than the ones of N(m).

We bring you, as usual, the sun and moon and stars, plus some galaxies and a new section on astrobiology. Some highlights are short (the newly identified class of gamma-ray bursts, and the Deep Impact on Comet 9P/Tempel 1), some long (the age of the universe, which will be found to have the Earth at its center), and a few metonymic, for instance the term “down-sizing” to describe the evolution ...

Condensation in the outer regions of decaying supernovae is an efficient source of dust with grain size up to more than 1µm. The largest grains leave the parent galaxy, thus forming " grey " intergalactic dust, which can explain the observed dimming of light from distant supernovae without invoking cosmic acceleration.
