    Viscous Dark Energy Models with Variable G and Lambda

    Full text link
    We consider a cosmological model with bulk viscosity (η\eta) and variable cosmological (Λρα,α=const.(\Lambda\propto \rho^{-\alpha}, \alpha=\rm const.) and gravitational (GG) constants. The model exhibits many interesting cosmological features. Inflation proceeds du to the presence of bulk viscosity and dark energy without requiring the equation of state p=ρp=-\rho. During the inflationary era the energy density (ρ\rho) does not remain constant, as in the de-Sitter type. Moreover, the cosmological and gravitational constants increase exponentially with time, whereas the energy density and viscosity decrease exponentially with time. The rate of mass creation during inflation is found to be very huge suggesting that all matter in the universe was created during inflation.Comment: 6 Latex page

    A New Formulation of Electrodynamics

    Full text link
    A new formulation of electromagnetism based on linear differential commutator brackets is developed. Maxwell equations are derived, using these commutator brackets, from the vector potential A\vec{A}, the scalar potential ϕ\phi and the Lorentz gauge connecting them. With the same formalism, the continuity equation is written in terms of these new differential commutator brackets. Keywords: Mathematical formulation, Maxwell's equationsComment: 11 Latex pages, no figure

    The generalized Newton's law of gravitation versus the general theory of relativity

    Full text link
    Einstein general theory of relativity (GTR) accounted well for the precession of the perihelion of planets and binary pulsars. While the ordinary Newton law of gravitation failed, a generalized version yields similar results. We have shown here that these effects can be accounted for as due to the existence of gravitomagnetism only, and not necessarily due to the curvature of space time. Or alternatively, gravitomagnetism is equivalent to a curved space-time. The precession of the perihelion of planets and binary pulsars may be interpreted as due to the spin of the orbiting planet (mm) about the Sun (MM)\,. The spin (SS) of planets is found to be related to their orbital angular momentum (LL) by a simple formula, \emph{viz}., SmMLS\propto \,\frac{m}{M}L\,.Comment: 8 LaTex pages, no figure: To appear in Gravitation and Cosmology, 201
