1 Frequency-based redshift for cosmological observation and Hubble diagram from the -D spherical model in comparison with observed supernovae Summary DIC1, Sep. 1-1, Castiglioncello (Italy) Shigeto Nagao, h.d. (Osaka, Japan) According to the formerly reported -D spherical model of the universe, factors on Hubble diagrams are discussed. he observed redshift is not the prolongation of wavelength from that of the source at the emission but from the wavelength of spectrum of the present atom, equal to the redshift based on the shift of frequency from the time of emission. he K-correction corresponds to conversion of the light propagated distance (luminosity distance) to the proper distance at present (present distance). Comparison of the graph of the present distance times 1 z versus the frequency-based redshift with the reported Hubble diagrams from the Supernova Cosmology roject, which were time-dilated by 1 z and K-corrected, showed an excellent fit for the resent ime (radius of -D sphere) being.7 of its maximum.

2 -D Spherical Model of the Universe he space energy spreads with expansion in a 3-D surface of a -D sphere. A vibration of the intrinsic space energy in the 3-D space vests additional energy, which is light or a quantum particle. Radius x of the -D sphere is our Observed ime (ime or ), which we feel passing commonly for all of us. x: Radius vector of D sphere x ( x, θ) ( x, 1,, 3) (D spherical coordinate) hase ransition Space expansion x r r: 3D space vector corresponding to θ r ( r, 1, ) ( x, 1, ) x by D cylindrical coordinate: x x, r,, ) ( x, x,, ) < Definition of terms related to ime > x (Radius of universe): CU (Cosmic Unit): (ime of mission): (resent ime): (Relative ime of mission): Relative ratio of to.

10 Conclusion Observed redshift is the frequency-based redshift from the time of emission. Light propagated distance LD is equal to the luminosity distance. Ratio of converting LD to the present distance D (proper distance at present) is given. he frame-conversion part of the K-correction corresponds to the LD-D conversion. Magnitude of 1 z D to z. 5 was compared with reported Hubble diagrams from the SC, which were time-dilated by 1 z and K-corrected. Superimposition on the reported Hubble diagrams from the SC showed an excellent fit. he graph for the resent ime. 7 very closely overlaps the line of flat m. 7 ΛCDM universe that Rubin et al concluded as the best fit.
