Distributed Sources and Dynamical Scaling in Cosmol- Ogy
نویسنده
چکیده
Distributed sources are included in the Einstein equations. Such modification of the general relativity provides a simple description of the accelerated expansion of the Universe with a dynamical scaling. Distributed sources can also be applied to more local cosmological phenomena, which defy conventional explanation. A possibility of superluminary effects is indicated. The Einstein equations for the general relativity have the form [1,2]: R ik − 1 2 Rg ik + Λg ik = − 8πG c 4 T ik (1) Here R ik is the Ricci tensor, R is the scalar curvature, g ik is the space-time metric tensor, T ik is the energy-momentum tensor, G is the gravitational constant, c is the velocity of light and Λ is the cosmological constant (CC). Einstein introduced CC to make the steady state cosmology, but later (after discovery of the expansion of the Universe) dismissed CC as his greatest blunder. Recent observations of the type Ia supernovae [3,4] suggest the accelerated expansion of the Universe (AU), which renewed interest to CC. However, there is a problem with Λ, which has dimension L −2. In the classical theory we can not construct a scale from G and c. In the quantum theory the Plank constant h leads to the Plank scale L P = (

A Few Projects in String Theory
In these lectures I discuss various unsolved problems of string theory and their relations to quantum gravity, 3d Ising model, large N QCD, and quantum cosmol-ogy. No solutions are presented but some new and perhaps useful approaches are suggested.
متن کاملAstrophysical and Cosmological Neutrinos
— We review the role of massive neutrinos in astrophysics and cosmol-ogy, assuming that the oscillation interpretation of solar and atmospheric neutrinos is correct. In particular, we discuss cosmological mass limits, neutrino flavor oscillations in the early universe, leptogenesis, and neutrinos in core-collapse supernovae.
متن کاملScaling relations in dynamical evolution of star clusters
We have carried out a series of small scale collisional N-body calculations of single-mass star clusters to investigate the dependence of the lifetime of star clusters on their initial parameters. Our models move through an external galaxy potential with a logarithmic density profile and they are limited by a cut-off radius. In order to find scaling relations between the lifetime of star cluste...
متن کاملCern-th/95-254 String Cosmology: Basic Ideas and General Results
After recalling a few basic concepts from cosmology and string theory, I will outline the main ideas/assumptions underlying (our own group's approach to) string cosmol-ogy and show how these lead to the definition of a two-parameter family of " minimal " models. I will then briefly explain how to compute, in terms of those parameters, the spectrum of scalar, tensor and electromagnetic perturbat...
متن کاملInnation, Deeation, and Frame-independence in String Cosmology
The innationary scenarios suggested by the duality properties of string cosmol-ogy in the Brans-Dicke (or String) frame are shown to correspond to accelerated contraction (deeation) when Weyl-transformed to the Einstein frame. We point out that the basic virtues of innation (solving the atness and horizon problems, amplifying vacuum uctuations) have physically equivalent counterparts in the de-...
