Cosmic Numbers: A Physical Classification for Cosmological Models
arXiv:astro-ph/0209337 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.67.027302
Abstract
We introduce the notion of the cosmic numbers of a cosmological model, and discuss how they can be used to naturally classify models according to their ability to solve some of the problems of the standard cosmological model.
