  1. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 Fundamental Cosmology: 3.Newtonian Cosmology “ If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.” Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727) b. Woolsthorpe, England

  2. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 = The property that defines how strongly it is attracted by gravity The property that defines how strongly something resists any force 3.1: Newtonian Cosmology • Newton Laws of Motion • Bodies move with constant velocity unless acted on by outside force i.e. move in straight lines • The rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to its’ acceleration • For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction Equivalence Principle Galileo: acceleration independent of mass

  3. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 Strong Nuclear Electromagnetic GUT ELECTROWEAK t=10-35s T=1027K E=1015Gev STRENGTH TOE t=10-12s T=1015K E=102Gev Weak Nuclear t=10-43s T=1031K E=1019Gev Gravity Gravity is weak but 3.1: Newtonian Cosmology • Gravity Dominates • mediator is massless • infinite range • only one charge On large scales - Gravity dominates

  4. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 The Cosmological Principle At any single epoch, the Universe appears Homogeneous and Isotropic to all Fundamental Observers The Hubble Parameter v(r) v(r’) r’ r and R(t) is the SCALE FACTOR a Where; Ro = R(to) such that r=ro at t=to O’ O -v(a) v(a) 3.1: Newtonian Cosmology • Can we derive the cosmological equations from purely Newtonian dynamics ?? All distances scaled by factor R(t) with increasing time with simple isotropic expansion

  5. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 Like a Faraday Cage ACCELERATION EQUATION 3.2: Newtonian (Dynamic) Derivation of Friedmann Equations • Newton: For a given observer at position , r, within a sphere. • Only mass interior to sphere affects the observer. • The mass exterior to sphere does not exert a force on the interior. • Simple derivation from dynamical arguments • c.f.GR BIRKHOFF’s THEOREM: • The gravitational field within a spherical cavity embedded within an infinite medium is zero. Consider a particle P, on the edge of an isotropically expanding sphere

  6. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 FRIEDMANN EQUATION ACCELERATION EQUATION 3.2: Newtonian (Dynamic) Derivation of Friedmann Equations ACCELERATION EQUATION • The Friedmann Equations Let 2cf=kc2

  7. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 Conservation of Energy Kinetic Energy Potential Energy 3.3: Newtonian (Energetic) Derivation of Friedmann Equations Analogous assumption: Ignore matter outside sphere of radius r(t) in expanding homogeneous universe • Derivation from Energetic arguments : Friedmann Equation Friedmann Equation

  8. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 U~ -kc2 Evolution of universes R U>0 U=0 U<0 • U<0: RHS will become negative at some value of • U=0: RHS >0 for all time t 3.3: Newtonian (Energetic) Derivation of Friedmann Equations • Dynamics in the Newtonian Universe • U>0: RHS >0 for all time

  10. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 Acceleration Equation 3.3: Newtonian (Energetic) Derivation of Friedmann Equations • The Acceleration Equation Friedmann Equation Fluid Equation • For any positive Energy Density the Universe is deccelerating • Pressure is always positive for baryons, photons, neutrinos, even WIMPS • but if P<-e/3 ???

  11. Chris Pearson : Fundamental Cosmology 3: Newtonian Cosmology ISAS -2003 Friedmann Equation Fluid Equation Acceleration Equation 3.4: Summary • Newtonian Cosmology • Can derive cosmological equations from a purely Newtonian Perspective • However it’s a bit 怪しい, e.g., • Finite sphere embedded in Universe - violates HOMOGENEITY - special place ! • Preferred direction towards centre of sphere - violates ISOTROPY • Euclidean flat Universe is assumed
