  1. Model Universes ASTR/PHYS 4080: Intro to Cosmology Week 4 From https://commonphysics.wordpress.com/tag/physics/, where the tag line is “In science there is only physics, all the rest is stamp collecting.” Such hubris is why we’re still stuck with string theory.

  2. Evolution of Components ASTR/PHYS 4080: Introduction to Cosmology Spring 2018: Week 04 2

  3. Relativistic Component: “Radiation” = Photons + Neutrinos CMB dominates energy density of photons in universe today Don’t know the mass of neutrinos, but energy density dominated by momentum and decoupling in early universe. Calculated to be: True for each neutrino flavor, so total is 3x above. ASTR/PHYS 4080: Introduction to Cosmology Spring 2018: Week 04 3

  4. Relativistic, Non-rel., & Components Radiation Matter: Dark Energy: Using evolution of each component with a, can compute when matter- dark energy and matter-radiation components were comparable ASTR/PHYS 4080: Introduction to Cosmology Spring 2018: Week 04 4

  5. Model Universes Can now solve for a(t) generically, if not necessarily analytically: • Empty • Matter only • classic case: open, closed, flat • Radiation only (+curvature) • Lambda only (+curvature) • Various Combinations! ASTR/PHYS 4080: Introduction to Cosmology Spring 2018: Week 04 5
