Perturbations in a non-singular bouncing Universe
We complement the low-energy gravi-dilaton effective action of string theory with a non-local, general-covariant dilaton potential, and obtain homogeneous solutions describing a non-singular (bouncing-curvature) cosmology. We then compute, both analytically and numerically, the spectrum of amplified scalar and tensor perturbations, and draw some general lessons on how to extract observable cons...
متن کاملPropagating Cosmological Perturbations in a Bouncing Universe
Using the simplest model for a bouncing universe, namely that for which gravity is described by pure general relativity, the spatial sections are positively curved and the matter content is a single scalar field, we obtain the transition matrix relating cosmological perturbation modes between the contracting and expanding phases. We show that this case provides a specific example in which this ...
متن کاملEntropy of Causal Horizons
We analyze spacetimes with horizons and study the thermodynamic aspects of causal horizons, suggesting that the resemblance between gravitational and thermodynamic systems has a deeper quantum mechanical origin. We find that the observer dependence of such horizons is a direct consequence of associating a temperature and entropy to a spacetime. The geometrical picture of a horizon acting as a o...
متن کاملA causal model for a closed universe
Recent observational evidences suggest that the measured matter density of baryonic and dark matter is significantly less than one, i.e. its critical value. This implies that either the universe is open or that there are some other matter components which makes Ωtotal ∼ 1. Combined measurements of CMB temperature fluctuations and of the distribution of galaxies on large scales strongly suggest ...
