Machian General Relativity: a possible solution to the Dark Energy problem, and a replacement for Big Bang cosmology
Robin Booth
Observations of an apparent acceleration in the expansion rate of the universe, derived from measurements of high-redshift supernovae, have been used to support the hypothesis that…
The Exochronous Universe: a static solution to the Einstein field equation
Robin Booth
Arguably our current cosmological paradigm, the so-called CDM `concordance model', faces an existential crisis. This has largely been brought about by its reliance on the twin…
Scale invariant gravity and the quasi-static universe
Robin Booth
We highlight the fact that the lack of scale invariance in the gravitational field equations of General Relativity results from the underlying assumption that the appropriate scale…
The galaxy power spectrum on the lightcone: deep, wide-angle redshift surveys and the turnover scale
Daniel Pryer, Robert E. Smith, Robin Booth +3
We derive expressions for the survey-window convolved galaxy power spectrum in real space for a full sky and deep redshift survey, but taking into account the geometrical lightcone…
Reassessment of the GZK cutoff in the spectrum of UHE cosmic rays in a universe with low photon-baryon ratio
Robin Booth
A prediction of standard Big Bang cosmology is that the observed UHECR (ultra-high-energy cosmic rays) spectrum will exhibit a cutoff at the GKZ limit, resulting from interaction w…
Anomalous photon noise levels predicted for CMB measurements made by the Planck satellite mission
Robin Booth
A fundamental assumption inherent in the standard Lambda+CDM Hot Big Bang (HBB) model is that photons lose energy as they are redshifted due to the expansion of the universe. We sh…
