Luminosity distance in Swiss cheese cosmology with randomized voids and galaxy halos
Éanna É. Flanagan, Naresh Kumar, Ira Wasserman
We study the fluctuations in luminosity distance due to gravitational lensing produced both by galaxy halos and large scale voids. Voids are represented via a "Swiss cheese" model…

Luminosity distance in Swiss cheese cosmology with randomized voids. II. Magnification probability distributions
Éanna É. Flanagan, Naresh Kumar, Ira Wasserman +1
We study the fluctuations in luminosity distances due to gravitational lensing by large scale (> 35 Mpc) structures, specifically voids and sheets. We use a simplified "Swiss chees…

Backreaction of superhorizon perturbations in scalar field cosmologies
Naresh Kumar, Eanna E. Flanagan
It has been suggested that the acceleration of the Universe may be due to the backreaction of perturbations to the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker background. For a Universe dominated b…
