What is the homogeneity of our universe telling us?
نویسندگان
چکیده
The universe we observe is homogeneous on super-horizon scales, leading to the “cosmic homogeneity problem”. Inflation alleviates this problem but cannot solve it within the realm of conservative extrapolations of classical physics. A probabilistic solution of the problem is possible but is subject to interpretational difficulties. A genuine deterministic solution of the homogeneity problem requires radical departures from known physics. Awarded Honorable Mention in the 1999 Gravity Research Foundation Essay Competition.

متن کاملRemarks on Inflation
It has been shown that sub-Planckian models of inflation require initial homogeneity on super-Hubble scales under certain commonly held assumptions. Here I remark on the possible implications of this result for inflationary cosmology. The observed homogeneity of the universe on superhorizon scales can be explained if there was a period of accelerated expansion (inflation) in the early universe ...

The ideology of us Muslims is called “monotheistic”. But unfortunately we know little about its meaning and nature. A heavenly word, in which its superior and great position we do not comprehend, neither do we pay any attention to the originality in the relationship of its inclosing truth to the divine inclosing essence of our existence. And it is only being played as a customary wo...
