1 The Friedmann Equation R = GM R R R = GM R R R(t) d dt 1 R = d dt GM R M 1 R = GM R + K Kinetic + potential energy per unit mass = constant
2 The Friedmann Equation 1 R = GM R + K M = ρ 4 3 π R3 1 R = 4πGρR 3 + K R R = 8πGρ + K 3 R a( t) = R( t) ( ) = R R 0 R t = 0 a a = 8πGρ + K 3 R 0 a!a =! R R 0
3 The Friedmann Equation a a = 8πG 3 ρ( t) + K R 0 1 Newtonian form of a( t) Friedman equation General Relativity: Replace density with energy density ( ) ε ( t) ρ t c Constant of integration is curvature of spacetime K R 0 kc R 0 k = E = ( m c 4 + p c ) 1 1 negative curvature 0 flat space +1 positive curvature
4 The Friedmann Equation k=0 k=+1 k=-1
5 The Friedmann Equation a a = 8πG 3c ε ( t) kc R 0 1 a a( t) a H ( t) H ( t) = 8πG 3c ε ( t) If k=0 ε c ( t) = 3c 8πG H ( t) Critical density ε c,0 c = h M Mpc -3
6 The Friedmann Equation Ω t ( ) = ε ( t) ( t) ε c H ( t) = H ( t) Ω( t) kc R 0 1 Ω( t) = kc R 0 Energy density in units of critical density 1 H ( t) a( t) 1 a( t) Ω( t) < 1 k = 1 = 1 k = 0 > 1 k = +1 Sign of 1-Ω does not change as universe expands.
7 The Friedmann Equation At the present epoch: H ( 0 1 Ω ) 0 = kc R 0 Replace curvature constant in Friedman equation: 1 Ω t ( ) ( ) = H 0 1 Ω 0 H ( t) a( t) H ( t) H 0 1 Ω( t) ( ) = 1 Ω 0 a t ( )
8 The Fluid Equation dq = de + PdV 1 st law of thermodynamics E + P V = 0 εv + ε V + P V = 0 V ε + 3 a a ε + P ( ) ε + 3 a a ( ε + P) = 0 = 0 E( t) = ε ( t)v ( t) V ( t) = 4 3 π R( t)3 V = 4 3 π 3R R V = V 3 R R = V 3 a a
9 The Acceleration Equation a a = 8πG 3c ε ( t) kc R 0 1 a( t) a = 8πG 3c ε ( t)a( t) kc R 0 a a = 8πG 3c a a = 4πG 3c ( εa + εa a ) ε a a + ε ε + 3 a a ( ε + P) = 0 ε a a = 3( ε + P)
10 The Acceleration Equation a a = 4πG 3c a a = 4πG 3c ( 3( ε + P) + ε) ( ε + 3P) The energy density is always positive If Pressure is positive then the universe must decelerate. (e.g., baryonic gas, photons, dark matter) If Pressure is negative, the universe can accelerate. (e.g., dark energy)
11 The Equations of Motion of the Universe a a = 8πG 3c ε ( t) kc R 0 1 a( t) Friedmann Equation a a = 4πG 3c ( ε + 3P) Acceleration Equation Two equations and three unknowns: a( t), ε ( t), P( t) Need a third equation: Equation of state P = P( ε) P = wε
12 The Equation of State P = wε Non-relativistic particles: matter (Ideal gas law) P = ρ kt kt = µ µc ε w = kt µc 0 Relativistic particles: radiation P = 1 3 ε w = 1 3 Mildly relativistic particles: 0 < w < 1 3
13 Cosmological Constant / Dark Energy 1915 Einstein s GR equations predict a dynamic universe But Einstein thought the Universe was static, so he introduced the Cosmological Constant, Λ, to his equations of motion. 199 When Hubble discovered the expansion of the universe, Einstein called Λ his greatest blunder SN results show that the universe is accelerating in its expansion so scientists revive Λ The cosmological constant or Dark Energy is thought to be the energy of a vacuum, predicted by quantum mechanics.
14 Cosmological Constant / Dark Energy a a = 8πG 3c ε ( t) kc R 0 1 a( t) + Λ 3 Friedman Equation a a = 4πG 3c ( ε + 3P) + Λ 3 Acceleration Equation ε + 3 a a ( ε + P) = 0 Fluid Equation: If the energy density of Dark Energy is constant with time ε = 3 a ( a ε + P ) = 0 P = ε w = 1
15 Cosmological Constant / Dark Energy a a = 8πG 3c ε ( t) kc R 0 1 a( t) + Λ 3 a a = 8πG 3c ε ( t) + 8πG 3c c Λ 8πG kc R 0 1 a( t) a a = 8πG 3c ( ε m + ε ) Λ kc R 0 1 a( t) H ( t) ( 1 Ω m Ω ) Λ = kc R 0 1 a( t)
