Large Scale Cosmological Inhomogeneities, Inflation and Acceleration Without Dark Matter

J. W. Moffat

We describe the universe as a local, inhomogeneous spherical bubble embedded in a flat matter dominated FLRW universe. Generalized exact Friedmann equations describe the expansion…

Stochastic String Topography and Multivacua

J. W. Moffat

The suggestion that there exist causally disconnected universes or sub-universes to explain the values of physical parameters such as the cosmological constant is discussed. A stat…

The Gravitational Instability of the Vacuum: Insight into the Cosmological Constant Problem

Stephon Alexander, Manasse Mbonye, John Moffat

A mechanism for suppressing the cosmological constant is developed, based on an analogy with a superconducting phaseshift in which free fermions coupled perturbatively to a weak gr…

Modified Gravitational Theory and the Gravity Probe-B Gyroscope Experiment

J. W. Moffat

A possible deviation from the precession of the Gravity Probe-B gyroscope predicted by general relativity is obtained in the nonsymmetric gravity theory. The time delay of radio si…

Modified Gravitational Theory and the Pioneer 10 and 11 Spacecraft Anomalous Acceleration

J. W. Moffat

The nonsymmetric gravitational theory leads to a modified acceleration law that can at intermediate distance ranges account for the anomalous acceleration experienced by the Pionee…

Modified Gravitational Theory and Galaxy Rotation Curves

J. W. Moffat

The nonsymmetric gravitational theory predicts an acceleration law that modifies the Newtonian law of attraction between particles. For weak fields a fit to the flat rotation curve…
