Cosmological Implications of the SDSS and 2dF Redshift–Population Histograms

Abstract

Empirical observation of galaxy population density in redshift space is inconsistent with expectations based on the canonical cosmological model. The magnitude of this inconsistency implies a significant error in the canonical model’s theoretical redshift-distance relationship. A new model has been derived that rests on first principles and which is consistent with observed galaxy population density in redshift space. Additionally, the observed Type Ia supernovae redshift-luminosity curve does not require interpretation as accelerating cosmic expansion. Moreover, the revised redshift–distance relationship of the proposed new model implies that the entire mass of early-type galaxies associated with observed Einstein rings is composed of normal matter; no “dark matter” need be assumed to exist in these systems.
