    I Hubble Parameter as function of time in universe models

    This graph shows ##H## as a function of time related to the L-CDM model. Do we (@Jorrie) have similar graphs e.g. for ##\Lambda=0##; ##k=-1## critical, ##\Lambda=0##; ##k=0## open, ##\Lambda=0##; ##k=+1## closed? That would be great, thanks in advance.

    I New measurement of the Hubble Parameter

    I just saw a new paper on measuring the Hubble Parameter : https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.06060.pdf It seems they are agreeing with Planck which I understand would speak largely against the idea of new physics from the Hubble tension. However it says +14 and -7 next to the estimate. I presume...

    A Anisotropic Universe and Friedmann Equations

    The Friedman Equations is based on the cosmological principle, which states that the universe at sufficiently large scale is homogeneous and isotropic. But what if, as an hypothesis, the universe was anisotropic and the clustering of masses are aligned to an arbitrary axis (axial pole), how...

    I What is the Hubble Parameter over time and how can I calculate it?

    How can I calculate the Hubble Parameter in time. I know that it decreases in time and approaches to some constant value but I am not sure to what value, Is there any graph for that ?

    I The error bars of redshift drift

    Dear all, I am reading the paper "Cosmic dynamics in the era of Extremely Large Telescopes " by Liske et al. about redshift. I get the physical meaning of redshift drift, but when it comes to the error bars, I am confused. - Aren't the error bars given in equation (15) ? - Isn't this function...

    I Radial BAO size method and Hubble parameter

    Hi! Can anyone tell me what the radial BAO size method is? how do people use it to get to the H(z)? I am reading the paper "Constraints on the Dark Side of the Universe and Observational Hubble Parameter Data " by Zhang et al. and I think I am lost! Can anyone tell me very simple, how they do...

    B Relationship Between Density and the Hubble parameter

    I'm just looking for conceptual clarification re: the relationship between matter density and the Hubble parameter in the Friedmann equation. Just for quick reference, the equation I'm looking at is H2 = 8πGρ/3 - ka-2 (I'm working through Liddle's Intro text, and for now we're ignoring the...

    I How Does the Hubble Parameter Relate to Galaxy Movement?

    This is the time derivative to calculate the speed which a galaxy moves away from another galaxy. I don't understand how they get from da/dt (xi − x1) to (∙a)/a a(t). (xi − x1). Could anyone explain this? vi(t) = d/dt (ri(t) − r1(t)) = d/dt a(t)(xi − x1) = da/dt (xi − x1)...

    A Hubble parameter vs Scale factor's derivative

    How does Hubble parameter and scale factor's derivative differ geometrically? I am reading S. Caroll's GR book. But I cannot get the full representation of these two parameters. On the book, it says How can \dot{H} and \ddot{a} be opposite of each other on the same instance if both are...

    I Hubble parameter in terms of the scale factor

    From Introduction to Cosmology by Matt Roos, he wanted to derive the Hubble parameter in terms of the scale factor. From the Friedmann's equation, ##\frac{R'^2 + kc^2}{R^2} = \frac{8πG}{3}ρ## The density parameter is ##~Ω(a) = \frac{8πG}{3H_o^2}ρ(a)~## and let ##~Ω_k = \frac{-kc^2}{H_o^2}##...

    F(R) gravity and the Hubble parameter

    Dear all, Considering Einstein Hilbert lagrangian, by using Einstein field equations one can get the form of Friedman equations and consequently the Hubble parameter. I know that in f(R) models, Einstein equations get modified. However, what happens to the Friedman equation and the Hubble...

    What exactly is the Hubble parameter?

    I'm looking at general relativity and particularly considering what happens at the Big Bang. I think the Friedman equation is H^2=\frac{8\pi G}{3}\rho so I see that as the matter density goes to infinity, H goes to infinity. According to this video (around 10:10), this is where the problem lies...

    Time derivative of Hubble parameter

    Is rather a question of calculus skills, but how do I get the time derivative of the Hubble parameter here in [1]? Is it the Leibnitz rule, the chain rule, some clever re-arrangement? thank you

    Is the Critical Density Related to the Friedmann Equation?

    Homework Statement For a κ=0 universe with no cosmological constant, show that H(z)=H0(1+z)3/2 Homework Equations Friedmann equation: H2=\frac{8*\pi*g}{3c^2}-\frac{κc^2}{r^2}*\frac{1}{a(t)^2} The Attempt at a Solution I know that R(z)=R0/(1+z) but I do not know where this comes...

    Constant Hubble parameter -> accelerating Universe?

    Hi, Let us assume that Hubble's Constant H is really constant. Therefore: a' / a = H where a is the scale factor. The solution to this equation is: a(t) = exp(H t) This equation describes an accelerating universe with deceleration parameter q given by: q = - a'' a / a'^2 =...

    Initial value for hubble parameter

    Simple question hopefully. What was the initial value for the Hubble parameter immediately following the big bang (or ending of inflationary epoch)? I presume the initial velocity of expansion was lightspeed and started slowing from there.

    Some slight confusion regarding the dimensionless Hubble parameter h.

    Hi, I am just writing up my MSc thesis and want to explain the dimensionless Hubble parameter that I have been using through my work. I understand that you take the valuefor the Hubble "constant" and then divide by 100km/sec/Mpc to leave get a value which has no units. There seems to be...
