Abstract
Guided by the analogy with the Rayleigh-Plesset dynamics of multielectron bubbles in superfluid He-4, we consider the cosmological FLRW evolution equation with additional cubic and sixth powers of the inverse of the scale factor of the universe. For the barotropic parameter w=2/3 (coasting universe), along with zero cosmological constant in the absence of viscous terms, by using the Sundman time as evolution parameter, we present parametric solutions for the scale factor of the universe in terms of rational expressions of Weierstrass elliptic functions and their particular cases thereof. For other values of the equation of state parameter w, such as w=-1, but also the same coasting case, we present a more standard discussion in the conformal time variable using solutions obtained by numerical integration.
