1 "Dark Energy" and "Dark Matter" in Friedmann Universes Understanding modern puzzles with physics from the 1920's William Q. Sumner January 16, 2012 St. Petersburg, Russia 1

3 The puzzles of Dark Energy and Dark Matter are beautifully solved using the geometry found by Friedmann in
4 Key Points Schrödinger and Sumner proved that size of atoms are directly proportional to the Friedmann radius. Размер атомов меняется с течением времени! Это ключ! This changes the interpretation of Hubble redshifts. The Universe is collapsing. Text Recent accelerating redshift measurements dramatically confirm this reasoning. No Dark Energy is needed to explain redshift data. The Universe is more than 1300 billion years old and will end in about 9.8 billion years. Most Dark Matter likely consists of burned-out stars. 4

30 In an expanding space all momenta decrease... This simple law has an even simpler interpretation in wave mechanics: all wavelengths, being inversely proportional to the momenta, simply expand with space. Erwin Schrödinger a(t) time (t) 30
31 Astronomers assume that light changes exactly as Schrödinger showed but they ignore the changes in atomic size. This is wrong. The wavelengths of both atoms and photons change. Астрономы согласны с Шрёдингером, что размер волны фотонов изменяется, но они игнорируют изменения размера атомов. Это неверно. Длина волн фотонов и атомов изменяется одновременно. 31

51 Data error average This fit Details: arxiv:astro-ph/ v1 51
52 Dark Energy is not needed to explain accelerating redshift 52
53 The Universe Is Nearly Flat (qo ~ 1/2) 53
54 Estimating the Age of the Universe Age (10 9 years) 54
55 Estimating minimum age by using the maximum observed redshift q0 decreases Age (10 9 years) 1300 Max Redshift Details: arxiv:astro-ph/ v1 8.6 maximum redshift 55
56 Max Redshift Details: arxiv:astro-ph/ v1 8.6 maximum redshift 56
57 Time Until Collapse For the time until collapse, 2/3 x Ho -1 is a good estimate when qo is near 0.5. For Ho = km s -1 Mpc -1, this is 9.8 billion years. 9.8 billion years 57
58 We are here Time to collapse is ~9.8 billion years 58
59 Dark Matter is mass that neither emits nor scatters electromagnetic radiation. It cannot be directly detected by optical or radio astronomy. 59
60 There is Dark Matter The closed Friedmann Universe requires much more matter than has been directly observed. Many astronomical studies indicate there is much more matter than has been directly observed. These include: Motions of clusters of galaxies. Rotational speeds of galaxies. Gravitational lensing. Temperature distributions of hot gases. 60

Temperature distributions of hot gases. 62
63 A Simple Explanation of Dark Matter The universe is at least 1300 billion years old. The lifetime of our sun, an average star, is estimated to be of the order of 10 billion years. Stars began forming soon after the Big Bang. Those and most stars from the following billion years have gone dark. This leads to the hypothesis that Most Dark Matter likely consists of burned-out stars. 63
64 Summary Schrödinger and Sumner have shown that the wavelengths of photons and atoms are directly proportional to the Friedmann radius. The evolution of atoms changes the interpretation of Hubble redshift. Redshift is characteristic of a collapsing Universe. Recent redshift measurements provide dramatic confirmation of this reasoning. No Dark Energy is needed to explain redshift data. The Universe is more than 1300 billion years old and will end in about 9.8 billion years. Considering the age of the universe, most "Dark Matter" likely consists of burned-out stars. 64
