An Alternative Cosmology
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent discussions of observational constraints on the standard hot big bang model are reviewed and it is argued that now there is room for considering alternative cosmologies. The quasi-steady state cosmology is brieey described. This model seems to explain most of the observed features of the universe, including the m-z relation, radio source count, the light nuclear abundances and the microwave background.

متن کاملThinking Towards Peace: On Triades and New Cosmology of the Mesocosm
This paper has three parts. In the first part, we bring to the fore an ancient Vedic concept of mesocosm and discuss its religious and cosmic significance within Indian religion. This part also brings an initial approach towards philosophy of spirituality by focusing on the role of breath within the very concept of mesocosm. In the second part, based on our preliminary analysis, we present an o...
متن کاملCosmic Walls and Filaments Formation in Modied Chaplygin Gas Cosmology
We want to study the perturbation growth of an initial seed of an ellipsoidal shape in Top-Hat collapse model of the structure formation in the Modied Chaplygin gas cosmology. Considering reasonable values of the constants and the parameters of the model under study, we can show that a very small deviation from spherical symmetry (ellipsoidal geometry) in the initial seed leads to a nal highly ...
متن کاملThe quasi-steady-state cosmology
This paper outlines an alternative cosmology called the quasi-steady-state cosmology (QSSC) which was proposed in 1993 as a rival to the standard big bang cosmology (SBBC). The motivation for an alternative cosmology is introduced by first discussing some of the weak points of the SBBC. The theoretical framework and observational tests of the QSSC are next described. Finally some tests which ca...
متن کاملThe quasi-steady state cosmology: Theory and observations
Abstract. This is a review of an alternative cosmology, recently proposed by Fred Hoyle, Geoffrey Burbidge and this author. It begins with a brief discussion of why one needs an alternative cosmology, when the standard hot big bang cosmology is claimed to be doing well. It is argued that the observational and theoretical constraints on the standard big bang cosmology, from various directions, l...
متن کاملMythological analysis of kings’ metahuman adjectives in the historiography of the Safavid era
Iranian historiography after Islam indicates the attribution of some metahuman characteristics to kings. This attribution could be studied concerning the culture of the target society in addition to historiographical eloquence. Meanwhile, the two factors of repetition and the existence of similar features in Iran’s ancient cosmology indicate a kind of intellectual coherence. The main issue of t...
