A New Inflationary Universe Scenario with Inhomogeneous Quantum Vacuum

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, 2018
We investigate the quantum vacuum and find that the fluctuations can lead to the inhomogeneous quantum vacuum. We find that the vacuum fluctuations can significantly influence the cosmological inhomogeneity, which is different from what was previously ...

Backreaction in cosmic screening approach

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2023
We investigate the backreaction of nonlinear perturbations on the global evolution of the Universe within the cosmic screening approach. To this end, we have considered the second-order scalar perturbations.

The great emptiness at the beginning of the Universe

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2021
The great emptiness is a possible beginning of the Universe in the infinite past of physical time. For the epoch of great emptiness particles are extremely rare and effectively massless.

Lemaître-Tolman-Bondi static universe in Rastall-like gravity

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2020
In this work, we try to obtain a stable Lemaître-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) static universe, which is spherically symmetric and radially inhomogeneous. However, this is not an easy task, and fails in general relativity (GR) and various modified gravity theories,

Interaction of inhomogeneous axions with magnetic fields in the early universe

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2022
We study the system of interacting axions and magnetic fields in the early universe after the quantum chromodynamics phase transition, when axions acquire masses. Both axions and magnetic fields are supposed to be spatially inhomogeneous.

Stability Analysis of the Inhomogeneous Perturbed Einstein Universe in Energy–Momentum Squared Gravity

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
The main objective of this article is to examine the stability of Einstein static universe using inhomogeneous perturbations in the context of energy–momentum squared gravity.

Calculation of distances in cosmological models with small-scale inhomogeneities and their use in observational cosmology: a review

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2020
The Universe is not completely homogeneous. Even if it is sufficiently so on large scales, it is very inhomogeneous at small scales, and this has an effect on light propagation, so that the distance as a function of redshift, which in many cases is ...

Lattice simulations of non-minimally coupled scalar fields in the Jordan frame

open access: yesSciPost Physics, 2023
The presence of scalar fields with non-minimal gravitational interactions of the form $\xi |\phi|^2 R$ may have important implications for the physics of the early universe.

Hunting for Gravitational Quantum Spikes

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
We present the result of our examination of quantum structures called quantum spikes. The classical spikes that are known in gravitational systems, occur in the evolution of the inhomogeneous spacetimes.

Inhomogeneous Viscous Fluids in a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) Universe

open access: yesGalaxies, 2013
We give a brief review of some aspects of inhomogeneous viscous fluids in a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker Universe. In general, it is pointed out that several fluid models may bring the future Universe evolution to become singular, with the appearance ...
