The Cosmological Group
Universal Mass/Energy Distribution
One of the most notable outcomes of measurement quantization is the clear division of mass distribution throughout the universe.2(Sec. 3.5) Those divisions are the mass that is presently visible to an observer 4.84884%,1(Eq. 101) the mass that will be visible but is not presently visible 31.6376%1(Eq. 98) and the mass that will never be visible because the rate of expansion is such that the light from that mass will never reach the observer 68.3624%.1(Eq. 97) And while modern theorists often attribute the difference in the first two distributions to an unknown and undetected dark matter, this last category is simply the difference between the visible and observable mass the latter being that which will be visible 31.6376% - 4.84884% = 26.78876%.1(Eq. 103)
Notably, the 68.3624% distribution1(Eq. 97) would not exist if it weren’t for universal expansion.1(Sec. 3.7) When applying MQ to an understanding of cosmological phenomena, it is important to distinguish universal expansion (that is, the expansion of the universe) from that of galactic expansion (the motion of galaxies within the expanding universe).1(Sec. 3.7) Taking universal expansion into account, the three groupings are straight-forward mathematical calculations prerequisite to little explanation. And, most importantly, they align with six significant digits to each of the λCDM groupings (the modern approach to understanding mass/energy distriution).1(Sec. 3.11) For reference, the λCDM distributins are identified with the less defined identifiers: visible, observable, dark matter and dark energy.
If not for the collaborating CMB calculations,1(Sec. 3.14) one might argue that the distributions resolved with MQ were coincidental, numerically valid but for reasons not physically understood. The goals of the cosmological group are to further validate the Informativity approach and identify how the λCDM model correlates. Most importantly, with MQ the dark matter and dark energy distributions1(Eqs. 97 & 103) are no longer misunderstood. They are straight-forward by-products of the quantization characteristics of measure cosmological in scale. In light of several decades of research, MQ offers new opportunities to understand the large-scale structures of the universe.
Objectives
- Further studies of mass distribution in the universe1(Fig. 3) are needed to refine and verify the MQ calculations. Studies may take advantage of differences between λCDM and MQ to fine-tune our understanding of mass distribution both relative to the universal frame and that of our own.2(Sec. 3.4)
- Mass distribution1(Sec. 3.11) is nearly entirely a function of the rate of universal expansion,1(Sec. 3.7) which MQ identifies as being precisely 2θsi. Further studies are needed to distinguish the rate of universal expansion from any residual motion that might be attributed to galactic expansion.
- Specific experimental results are needed to distinguish the correctness of MQ in relation to λCDM.
- While galactic orbital dynamics3(Sec. 3.3) is a separate area of research relative to this group, results regarding investigations of the MQ approach to describing galaxies are vital to provide a larger picture as to the nature of mass/energy distribution throughout the universe.1(Sec. 3.11)
- In light of the 31.6376% distribution interpretation by MQ,1(Eq. 98) galaxies at the edge of the visible universe are well within the gravitational scope of those galaxies. Just as we find locally, there will be voids, and uneven distributions of mass beyond. Can we measure the effects of that distribution on the galaxies that we can observe?
Inquiry
- In the absence of theory, could an expanding universe exist without these four mass/energy distributions?1(Sec. 3.11)
- What did mass distribution look like during the quantum inflationary epoch?1(Sec. 3.13) And further, did the effects of distinct mass distributions carry over from this epoch into the universe that we observe today?
