1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
how can i show the universe is static and not expanding, how it really is.
2. Relevant equations
\OmegaM=...
\Omega\Lambda=...
3. The attempt at a solution
"The expansion history of the universe depends on the amount of matter (gravity), quantified
by \OmegaM
M, and dark energy (anti-gravity), given by" \Omega\Lambda
So would setting these two formulas = to each other and solving for the cosmological constant, that would give me a static universe right? I am like 90% sure its right but want some conformation.
thanks
