1 Friedman(n) Models of the Universe Max Camenzind Modern Cosmology Oct-13-D9

2 Topics Matter in the Universe? DM, B, DE, phot The 2 Friedmann equations Equation of state EoS for matter parameter w Density evolution as a function of w. Expansion of the Universe as a function of w. Age of the Universe, Age as a function of redshift, Look-back Time. Luminosity distances for particular models how to measure the Expansion with SN Ia. Apparent angular diameters in the expanding Universe. The Universe of Dark Energy

3 Matter of the Universe Universe is expanding. Components of the Universe are: Universe is 13.7 Billion years old. Expansion is currently accelerating.

4 Dynamics: Friedmann Equs Einstein s field equations: 2 Friedmann equations. couples expansion rate with matter content. Solution will depend on the EoS: Matter dominance. Vacuum dominance. Radiation dominance.

16 Raychouduri Equation

17 Energy Conservation 1st Law of Thermodynamics Use Friedmann equations (c=1): to show that d/dt(ρa3) = - P (d/dt)a3 du = -P dv, ds = 0 for EoS of the form P = w ρ we then find a3 dρ = -(w+1) 3 ρ a2 da provided w=constant ρ ~ a-3(w+1)

18 The Cosmological Equation of State EoS Defined via the EoS: P=wρ is known Cosmic Equation of State (EoS) Particular EoS: w=0 P=0 : Dark Matter (DM), Baryons (B) well satisfied for non-relativistic Baryons! w=1/3 Radiation, masseless Neutrinos w=-1 Vacuum Energy, looks like a cosmological constant.

19 General Density Evolution ρ ~ a-3(w+1) Matter dominated (w=0): Radiation dominated (w=1/3): Cosmological Constant (w=-1): Dark Energy with w<-1, eg w=-2: ρ ~ a-3 ρ ~ a-4 ρ = const ρ ~ a3 Energy density would increase with expansion! would dominate even matter, which consists of normal Elements! ( socalled Big Rip ). w < -1 is therefore quite improbable. -1 < w < -1/3 is however possible.

20 Density Evolution; 1+z=1/a Dark Energy aeq

21 Density Evolution as Func of a ρtot = ρr + ρm + ρde ρr = ρr 0 a-4, since ρ ~ a-4 and a = 1 today ρr0 present radiation energy density Ωr0 ρr0 / ρcrit via Definition Index 0 is usually just omitted Ωr0 Therefore ρr = ρcrit Ωr a-4 and similarly for ρm, ρde For this, Density Evolution in F-Equ ρtot = ρcrit [ Ωr a-4 + Ωm a-3 + ΩDE a-3(1+w)] if w for DE constant

22 1st Friedmann Equation (å/a)2 = 8 π G ρ(t) /3 kc²/a² ρ(t) = ρcrit [ Ωr a-4 + Ωm a-3 + ΩDE a-3(1+w)] Ωk = 0 w = const Replace in Friedmann-equ., H0 (å/a)0: (å/a)2 = H02 ( Ωr a-4 + Ωm a-3 + ΩDE a-3(1+w) )

23 Cosmo Density Parameters Hubble-Radius RH = c/h0 = 4200 Mpc The Universe appears flat, whenever R0 > 10 RH Ωk ~ 0 Fundamental Plane of Cosmology

24 Density Evolution; 1+z=1/a DE Dominated Future Matter dominated Radiation dominated

25 Fundamental Plane of Cosmology Each Point is a Cosmological Model

26 Parameters Friedmann Universe (i) Hubble Constant H0; (ii) Density parameter of non-relativistic Matter : Ωm = ΩDM + ΩB. (iii) Curvature parameter: Ωk = -k RH²/R0². Inflation R0 >> RH LCDM-Model. (iv) Parameter of Dark Energy: ΩDE. (v) Equation of state of Dark Energy: w ~ -1 ( Vacuum Energy ).

27 Models of Expanding Universe a ~ t2/(3(w+1)) Matter-dominated (w=0): a ~ t2/3 Einstein-deSitter Is decelerating Radiation-dominated (w=1/3): a ~ t1/2 Is decelerating Cosmological Vacuum (w=-1): a ~ eλ t (desitter) Is accelerating When is the transition? w > -1/3 Deceleration w < -1/3 Acceleration

28 Classical Models without DE Ωm < 1: OCDM Expands forever k = -1 Ωm = 1: SCDM k=0 Ωm > 1 k = +1 Big Bang Collapsing later Big Crunch

29 Einstein-deSitter Universe Flat Model (k=0) Einstein-deSitter Universum R t 2/3 R 2 H0 = = R 3t0 R 2 t0 = = 9.3 Gyrs 3H 0 t

30 desitter Universe - DE Universe without matter, only with Λ De Sitter 1917: the first expanding Universe Λ a (t ) = a (t ) 3 a (t ) e H = H t Λ / 3 = const Exponentially accelerated Expansion

31 desitter Solutions

32 Summary Only Relativistic Cosmos is correct FLRW 2 Friedmann-Equations determine the Expansion of the Universe for given EoS. Matter in the present Universe consists of various components: Baryons, Photons, Neutrinos, Dark Matter and Dark Energy. Expressed in terms of Omega-parameters. Since 1997, Supernovae observations give evidence for an accelerated expansion Dark Energy is therefore required and Ωk ~ 0. EoS w of Dark Energy is one of crucial problem.
