چکیده

We calculate the low-redshift Taylor expansion for the luminosity distance for an observer at the center of a spherically symmetric matter inhomogeneity with a nonvanishing cosmological constant. We then test the accuracy of the formulas comparing them to the numerical calculation for different cases for both the luminosity distance and the radial coordinate. The formulas can be used as a starting point to understand the general non-linear effects of a local inhomogeneity in the presence of a cosmological constant, without making any special assumption as regards the inhomogeneity profile.

Analytical Fit to the Luminosity Distance for Flat Cosmologies with a Cosmological Constant

Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT We present a fitting formula for the luminosity and angular diameter distances in cosmological models with pressureless matter, a cosmological constant and zero spatial curvature. The formula has a relative error of less than 0.4% for 0.2 < Ω 0 < 1 for any redshift, and a global relative error of less than 4% for any choice of parameters.

Motivated by the inverse problem for the Lemâıtre-Tolman-Bondi dust solution, in which problem the luminosity distance function DL(z) is taken as an input to select a specific model, we compute the function DL(z) of the LTB solution up to the third order of z. To perform the otherwise cumbersome computation, we introduce a new convenient form of the LTB solution, in which the solution is explic...

Cosmological Observations in a Local Void

A local void in the globally Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmological model is studied. The inhomogeneity is described using the Lemâıtre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) solution with the spherically symmetric matter distribution based on the faint galaxies number counts. We investigate the effects this has on the measurement of the Hubble constant and the redshift–luminosity distance relation for mode...

A Cosmology Independent Calibration of GRB Luminosity Relations and the Hubble Diagram

An important issue related to the application of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) to cosmology is that the calibration of the luminosity relations of GRBs depends on the cosmological model due to the lack of sufficient low-redshift GRBs sample. In this paper, we present a new method to calibrate the GRB relations in a cosmological model independent way. Since sources at the same redshift should have the...

Higher Dimensional Cosmological Implications Of A Decay Law For Λ Term : Expressions For Some Observable Quantities

Implications of cosmological model with a cosmological term of the form Λ = β ä a , where β is a constant, are analyzed in multidimensional space time. The proper distance, the luminosity distance-redshift, the angular diameter distance-redshift, and look back time-redshift for the model are presented. It has been shown that such models are found to be compatible with the recent observations. T...
