Two restrictions in the theories that include and varying with time
Màrius Josep Fullana i Alfonso, Antonio Alfonso-Faus
Much work has been done taking into account the possibility that the gravitational {\it constant} may vary with cosmological time (or with the cosmological scale factor $a(…
Fundamental Principle of Information-to-Energy Conversion
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
The equivalence of 1 bit of information to entropy was given by Landauer in 1961 as kln2, k the Boltzmann constant. Erasing information implies heat dissipation and the energy of 1…
Bekenstein and the Holographic Principle: Upper bounds for Entropy
Antonio Alfonso-Faus, Màrius Josep Fullana i Alfonso
Using the Bekenstein upper bound for the ratio of the entropy of any bounded system, with energy and effective size , to its energy i.e. …
Seeable universe and its accelerated expansion: an observational test
Antonio Alfonso-Faus, Màrius Josep Fullana i Alfonso
From the equivalence principle, one gets the strength of the gravitational effect of a mass on the metric at position r from it. It is proportional to the dimensionless paramet…
Expanding versus non expanding universe
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
In cosmology the number of scientists using the framework of an expanding universe is very high. This model, the big-bang, is now overwhelmingly present in almost all aspects of so…
Underpinning the universe: its scales, holography and fractality
Antonio Alfonso-Faus, Marius Josep Fullana i Alfonso
We expand on the general concept of a universe. We identify physics as a unit applied to a universe. Then we generalize the concept of a quantum black hole, and apply it to the uni…
Quantization of the universe as a black hole
Màrius Josep Fullana i Alfonso, Antonio Alfonso-Faus
It has been shown that black holes can be quantized by using Bohr's idea of quantizing the motion of an electron inside the atom. We apply these ideas to the universe as a whole. T…
On the nature of the outward pressure in the Universe (II)
Antonio Alfonso-Faus, David Sanchez Aguado
In Plasma Physics the concept of the Debye length \lambdaD is defined. This length gives the size of a volume such that from outside it the inside electrical charges, positive and…
Universality of the self gravitational potential energy of any fundamental particle
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
Using the relation proposed by Weinberg in 1972, combining quantum and cosmological parameters, we prove that the self gravitational potential energy of any fundamental particle is…
Quantum gravity and information theories linked by the physical properties of the bit
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
Quantum gravity, and quantum cosmology, is not yet a complete nor consistent theory. One of the reasons for this is that the identification of the quantum of gravity is still very…
Evidence for a disaggregation of the universe
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
Combining the kinematical definitions of the two dimensionless parameters, the deceleration q(x) and the Hubble t0H(x), we get a differential equation (where x = t/t0 is the age of…
Cosmology, Holography, the Brain and the Quantum Vacuum
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
Cosmology, as a science, started at the beginning of the last century with the advent of the Einstein cosmological equations. Based on these equations, the present main stream cosm…
Entropy, Gravity and the Mass-Boom
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
Verlinde presents the gravitational force as due to gradients of entropy, an emergent force, with far reaching consequences. Using the Hawking-Bekenstein entropy formulation, we ar…
Sources of cosmic microwave radiation and dark matter identified: millimeter black holes (m.b.h.)
Antonio Alfonso-Faus, Marius Josep Fullana i Alfonso
The universe is filled with blackbody millimeter radiation (CMBR), temperature 2.7° Kelvin[1]. Big-bang cosmology explains this by the initial thermalization of photons scattered b…
Non-expanding universe: a cosmological system of units
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
The product of two empirical constants, the dimensionless fine structure constant and the von Klitzing constant (an electrical resistance), turns out to be an exact dimensionless n…
The case for the Universe to be a quantum black hole
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
We present a necessary and sufficient condition for an object of any mass m to be a quantum black hole (q.b.h.): The product of the cosmological constant lambda and the Planck cons…
The case for a non-expanding universe
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
We present the results of two empirical constancies: the fine structure constant and the Rydberg constant. When the speed of light c is taken away from the fine structure constant,…
Fractal universe and the speed of light: Revision of the universal constants
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
We apply the property of selfsimilarity that corresponds to the concept of a fractal universe, to the dimension of time. It follows that any interval of time, given by any tick of…
On the nature of the outward pressure in the Universe
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
Plasma Physics defines the concept of the Debye length. Given the enormous electrical potential that would develop with no screening, we conjecture that the size of the Universe,as…
Artificial contradiction between cosmology and particle physics: the lambda problem
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
It is shown that the usual choice of units obtained by taking G = c = Planck constant = 1, giving the Planck units of mass, length and time, introduces an artificial contradiction…
Three findings to model a quantum-gravitational theory
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
In 1967 Zeldovich expressed the cosmological constant lambda in terms of G, m and h, the gravitational constant, the mass of a fundamental particle and Plancks constant. In 1972 We…
Structure of the Universe: Generalization of Weinberg relation
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
Weinberg relation can be explained by Newton laws. It can also be transformed into a relation between a gravitational cross section area, associated to a gravitational mass m, and…
Zeldovich Lambda and Weinberg Relation: An Explanation for the Cosmological Coincidences
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
In 1937 Dirac proposed the large number hypothesis (LNH). The idea was to explain that these numbers were large because the Universe is old. A time variation of certain constants w…
Cosmology with New Astrophysical Constants
Antonio Alfonso-Faus
It is shown that Einstein field equations give two solutions for cosmology. The first one is the standard well known representative of the present status of cosmology. We identify…
