TLDR
In this article, observational material testing the cosmological principle separately for geometry and substratum, is discussed without referring to any given model of the Universe, as long as the theoretical assumptions on which these models are based are true.Abstract:
Testing cosmological models is worthwhile as long as the theoretical assumptions, on which these models are based, are true In this report observational material testing the Cosmological Principle separately for geometry and substratum, is discussed without referring to any given model of the Universeread more

A cosmological model with compact space sections and low mass density
TL;DR: In this article, a general relativistic cosmological model is presented which has closed space sections and mass density below a critical density similar to that of Friedmann's models.
Journal ArticleDOI
New trends in cosmology
TL;DR: A review of big-bang cosmology is presented in this article, emphasizing the Big Bang model, hypotheses on the origin of galaxies, observational tests of the big bang model that may be possible with the Large Space Telescope, and the scale-covariant theory of gravitation.

God’s Time and General Relativity
TL;DR: The question of what measured time coincides with God's metaphysical time, or in other words, what clock time is the true time, has been investigated in this paper. But the answer to this question will take us from Special into General Relativity, as we seek to gain a cosmic perspective on time.

God, Time, and Relativity
TL;DR: In this paper, the question of whether we have some idea of which measured time coincides with God's metaphysical time, or in other words, what clock time is the true time?

The Distribution of rich clusters of galaxies
TL;DR: In this article, a catalogue of 2712 rich clusters of galaxies found on the National Geographic Society-Palomar Observatory Sky Survey is presented, and 1682 clusters are selected which meet specific criteria for inclusion in a homogeneous statistical sample.

Lectures on General Relativity
TL;DR: In this article, the problem of finding a unique solution of the Cauchy problem with given sources, but with nothing known about initial conditions, has been studied in the context of field equations.

Fine-Scale Anisotropy of the Microwave Background: an Upper Limit at a = 3.5 Millimeters
Paul E. Boynton,R. B. Partridge +1 more
TL;DR: Using the 36-foot NRAO telescope at lambda = 3.5 mm, an upper limit of 0.0043 deg K was set, with 90 percent confidence, on the fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background as discussed by the authors.
