Void-Dominated Cosmology: Looking for Dark Energy in the Kitchen
Void-Dominated Cosmology: Looking for Dark Energy in the Kitchen
Dr. Ebrahim Yusofi - Amol University and IPM
14 MAY 2025
11:00 - 12:00
Abstract:
This talk addresses key challenges in modern cosmology and introduces the motivations for a "void-based cosmology". In this approach, voids (bubbles) are treated as independent, dynamic components of the cosmic web next to clusters (drops). Drawing inspiration from the behavior of heated milk overflowing, the presentation will examine the connection between void surface tension and the cosmological constant, the modified uncertainty principle, and the evolving dark energy density resulting from void mergers on cosmic scales.
