Graduate Interpreting SDSS extragalactic data in the era of JWST

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the interpretation of extragalactic data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) in light of findings from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). It presents empirical evidence that contradicts the ΛCDM standard model of Big Bang cosmology, highlighting issues such as the Hubble constant tension and the σ8 clustering parameter discrepancy. A new predictive "temporal geometry" model is proposed, which aligns with de Sitter's solution to the Einstein field equations and offers potential resolutions to existing cosmological anomalies. The talk emphasizes the need for further validation of this model by the mathematical physics and cosmology communities.

Talk Description (Abstract)
We present empirical evidence from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), including statistically-significant, independent measurements of galaxy theta-z, redshift-magnitude, and redshift-population. These corroborating data sets are clearly inconsistent with the optimal ΛCDM standard model of Big Bang cosmology, exacerbating the Hubble constant tension; the σ8 (clustering parameter) discrepancy; the lensing anomaly; the large-angular-scale anomalies in CMB temperature and polarization; and other anomalies that now confront cosmologists. A set of predictive equations are put forward that are consistent with de Sitter's exact solution to the Einstein field equations; this new predictive "temporal geometry" model, which requires vetting by the mathematical physics and cosmology communities, is consistent with the SDSS data and relieves the unexpected new tensions in cosmology created by initial and ongoing JWST observations.

The CERN talk and presentation materials provide a fascinating look into the current state of interpreting extragalactic data in the era of the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The speaker presents empirical evidence from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) that challenges the current standard model of Big Bang cosmology and raises important questions about the Hubble constant, clustering parameter, lensing anomaly, and other anomalies that have been observed.

The speaker also introduces a new predictive "temporal geometry" model that is consistent with the SDSS data and offers a potential solution to these tensions in cosmology. However, they also acknowledge that this model requires further vetting by the mathematical physics and cosmology communities.

Overall, this talk highlights the exciting and ever-evolving nature of cosmology and the important role that data interpretation plays in shaping our understanding of the universe. With the upcoming launch of the JWST, we can expect even more groundbreaking discoveries and challenges to our current models of the universe, and it will be fascinating to see how this new data will impact our understanding of the cosmos.
