The explanation of this anomalous acceleration has been one of the great challenges in physics since that discovery. In this talk, I will present cosmological models [1,2,3] that explain the cosmic acceleration via the geometric structure of space-time, without invoking mysterious, unseen “dark energy”. In this geometric structure of space-time, the roles of time, space and mass are related in new kind of relativity. There are four distinguishing features of these models: 1) the speed of light and the gravitational “ constant” are not constant, but vary with the evolution of the universe, 2) time has no beginning and no end; i.e., there is neither a big bang nor a big crunch singularity, 3) the spatial section of the universe is a 3-sphere, ruling out the possibility of a flat or hyperboloid geometry, and 4) the universe experiences phases of both acceleration and deceleration. One of these models is selected and tested against current cosmological observations of Type Ia supernovae, and is found to fit the redshift-luminosity distance data quite well. 敬 請 公 佈 歡 迎 參 加 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.113.114.213 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.113.114.213
