Why Mature Galaxies Seem to Have Filled the Universe Shortly After the Big Bang — A New Cosmological Model, that Predicted the JWST Observations

Abstract

Recent observations from the first dataset, provided by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) of six massive galaxies, at a time in the early universe, seem to defy conventional cosmological models, as they appear to be as mature and developed as our own local group. Such unexpected discoveries JUSTIFY A RADICALLY NOVEL MODEL OF COSMOLOGY. TO QUOTE JOEL LEJA, ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS AT PENN STATE ''IT TURNS OUT WE FOUND SOMETHING SO UNEXPECTED IT ACTUALLY CREATES PROBLEMS FOR SCIENCE. IT CALLS THE WHOLE PICTURE OF EARLY GALAXY FORMATION INTO QUESTION''. This article provides an alternative mathematical model of cosmological redshifting (\(z\)), which actually predicted such mature galaxies in a 2022 preprint, prior to these recent observations. As well, this model also predicts discrepancies between theoretical and observed galaxy rotation curves with apparent increased energy density. The Azimuthal Projection Model of the Universe is conceptualized as an \(\mathbb{R}^5\) spacetime, with a four spatial dimensional hypersphere azimuthally projected onto a three-dimensional spatial sphere. This simple parsimonious model requires only a few assumptions, excluding dark energy to satisfy the Cosmological Constant \(\Lambda\), and is shown to match the Universal expansion rate, as established from supernova cosmology survey points. This novel model conceives the universe as a higher dimensional dynamic with spacetime as a projection, rather than as an arrow from the absolute beginning of the Big Bang. Redshifting is alternatively proposed as azimuthal angular projections of wavelengths \(\lambda\). Accelerated Universal Expansion is alternatively proposed as azimuthal projections of meridians, asymptotical to a horizon, and Lambert's cosine law of luminous intensity. A radical implication of this model is that azimuthal angular projections are positional dependent, and thus it's conceivable that apparent distances between galaxies vary with the location of the observer (see figure 4). Supportive mathematical evidence is described from the Hubble Tension; Discrepancies between visible spectra redshifting of cepheid variables (the most recent calculation is \(Ho=74.03 \pm 1.42km/sec/Mpc\)), and from temperature fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) (which are calculated to be \(Ho=68.7 \pm 1.3km/sec/Mpc\)), which resolves the discrepancy by recalibrating redshift data from supernova Cosmology survey points.
