Abstract

It is shown that by imposing a condition of maximum value for the luminosity of the source at the origin of the cosmic microwave background, one arrives at a set of equations characteristic to important cosmological quantities. Although these equations do not have a solid theoretical support, the values of the parameters derived from them agree surprisingly well with the values given by the most recent measurements.

Highlights

  • After its discovery in (Penzias and Wilson, 1965) following several hints (Adams, 1941; McKellar, 1941) and predictions (Gamow, 1948; Alpher and Herman, 1948) the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) became one of the most studied phenomena in the modern cosmology

  • The radius Rcv is equal to the radius Rsls = c/H of the Speed of Light Sphere (SLS), known as the Hubble sphere (Ellis and Rothman, 1993), but because in decelerating universes the Hubble surface recedes faster than the galaxies and the universe was decelerating for most part of its life, in the past Rcv was much larger than Rsls and the SLS was inside our Comoving Volume (CV) (Harrison, 1991)

  • It is reasonable to assume that CMB luminosity corresponds to the gravitational collapse of a volume of space that released a quantity of energy equivalent to the maximum value in baryonic matter, in the minimum time allowed by causality

Summary

Introduction

After its discovery in (Penzias and Wilson, 1965) following several hints (Adams, 1941; McKellar, 1941) and predictions (Gamow, 1948; Alpher and Herman, 1948) the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) became one of the most studied phenomena in the modern cosmology. In this study we impose a condition of maximum value for the luminosity of the source at the origin of the CMB and using the familiar laws of physics arrive at a set of equations pertaining to prominent cosmological quantities. We derive from these equations three of the most important cosmological parameters and compare their values with those obtained from the most recent measurements
