Varying physical constants and the lithium problem

چکیده

We have used the recently published varying physical constants (VPC) approach to resolve primordial lithium abundance problem. The value of ratio $7Li$ hydrogen $7Li/H=1.400(\pm 0.023){\times}10^{-10}$ we calculated using this is about four times lower than that estimated standard lambda cold dark matter (${\Lambda}$CDM) cosmological model, and consistent with most agreed observational $1.6(\pm 0.3){\times}10^{-10}$. In VPC Einstein equations are modified include variation speed light $c$, gravitational constant $G$ ${\Lambda}$ Einstein-Hilbert action. Application cosmology naturally leads Plank $\hbar$ Boltzmann $k_B$ as well. They fixed values at scale factor $a\ll 1$: $c=c_0/e$, $G=G_0/e^3$, $\hbar=\hbar_0/e$ $k_B=k_{B0}/e^{5/4}$, where $e$ Euler's number (=2.7183). Since reduces same form ${\Lambda}$CDM very small factors, could use an existing Big-Bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) code AlterBBN above changes calculate element abundances under cosmology. Among other baryon photon ${\eta}=6.1{\times}10^{-10}$ are: $4He/H =0.2478 (\pm 0.041)$, $D/H =2.453(\pm 0.041){\times}10^{-5}$ $3 He/H=2.940(\pm 0.049){\times}10^{-5}$.

Quantum Cosmology and Varying Physical Constants

The main task of this review is to discuss quantum cosmology minisuperspace models based on the Wheeler–DeWitt equation, which apart from the standard matter and 3-geometry configuration degrees of freedom, allow those related to the variability of physical constants—varying speed of light (VSL) c and varying gravitational constant G. The tunneling probability of the universe “from nothing” to ...

Varying constants.

We review properties of theories for the variation of gravitation and fine structure 'constants'. We highlight some general features of the cosmological models that exist in these theories with reference to recent quasar data that are consistent with time variation in the fine structure constant since a redshift of 3.5. The behaviour of a simple class of varying-alpha cosmologies is outlined in...

Varying Constants, Gravitation and Cosmology

Fundamental constants are a cornerstone of our physical laws. Any constant varying in space and/or time would reflect the existence of an almost massless field that couples to matter. This will induce a violation of the universality of free fall. Thus, it is of utmost importance for our understanding of gravity and of the domain of validity of general relativity to test for their constancy. We ...

Varying G and Other Constants

We review recent progress in the study of varying constants and attempts to explain the observed values of the fundamental physical constants. We describe the variation of G in Newtonian and relativistic scalar-tensor gravity theories. We highlight the behaviour of the isotropic Friedmann solutions and consider some striking features of primordial black hole formation and evaporation if G varie...

Cosmology with varying constants.

The idea of possible time or space variations of the 'fundamental' constants of nature, although not new, is only now beginning to be actively considered by large numbers of researchers in the particle physics, cosmology and astrophysics communities. This revival is mostly due to the claims of possible detection of such variations, in various different contexts and by several groups. I present ...
