Considering light-matter interactions in Friedmann equations based on the conformal FLRW metric
Journal of Advanced Research, 2023 Introduction: Recent observations indicate that the Universe is not transparent but partially opaque due to absorption of light by ambient cosmic dust. This implies that the current cosmological model valid for the transparent universe must be modified ...

Evolution of the cosmic microwave background [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2007 We discuss the time dependence and future of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) in the context of the standard cosmological model, in which we are now entering a state of endless accelerated expansion. The mean temperature will simply decrease until it reaches the effective temperature of the de Sitter vacuum, while the dipole will oscillate as the ...

Cosmic dust evolution: The challenges for NIKA2 [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 I summarize a recent study aimed at constraining dust evolution timescales in nearby galaxies. We were able to quantify the effciency of dust condensation in SN II ejecta, grain growth in the ISM and dust destruction by SN II blast waves.
