Is Our Universe Brany ?
Brane-world models, which have received a lot of attention during the last few years, are essentially characterized by two basic ideas: • they assume the existence of spatial extra dimensions, in addition to our four space-time dimensions. The higher dimensional spacetime is usually called the “bulk” spacetime; • our accessible Universe is assumed to be a submanifold, called “brane”, embedded i...
متن کاملMeasuring our Universe
In the 3 century BCE, the Greek mathematician Eratosthenes was able to estimate the Earth’s circumference. He learned that on the summer solstice the Sun at noon was reflected in a deep well in the southern Egyptian city of Syene, which indicated that the Sun was directly overhead at that time. He also knew the Sun was not directly overhead at that time where he lived (Alexandria, in northern E...
متن کاملHow Anisotropic is Our Universe?
Large-scale cosmic microwave background anisotropies in homogeneous, globally anisotropic cosmologies are investigated. We perform a statistical analysis in which the four-year data from the Cosmic Background Explorer satellite is searched for the specific anisotropy patterns predicted by these models and thereby set definitive upper limits on the amount of shear, (σ/H)0 and vorticity, (ω/H)0, ...
متن کاملStellar Evolution in the Early Universe
Massive stars played a key role in the early evolution of the Universe. They formed with the first halos and started the re-ionisation. It is therefore very important to understand their evolution. In this paper, we describe the strong impact of rotation induced mixing and mass loss at very low Z. The strong mixing leads to a significant production of primary N, C and Ne. Mass loss during the r...
متن کاملSignatures of Stellar Reionization of the Universe
The high ionization level and non-zero metallicity (∼ 1% Z ⊙) of the intergalactic gas at redshifts z ∼ < 5 implies that nonlinear structure had started to form in the universe at earlier times than we currently probe. In Cold Dark Matter (CDM) cosmologies, the first generation of baryonic objects emerges at redshifts z ∼ 10–50. Here we examine the observable consequences of the possibility tha...
