Cosmic voids and the kinetic analysis

The kinetic approach to the formation of the filaments in the large-scale matter distribution in the Universe is considered within the Vlasov formalism. The structures arise due to the self-consistent dynamics, along with the repulsive term in the modified Newtonian gravity which includes the cosmological constant. That modified gravity enables one to describe the Hubble tension as a result of two flows, the local and global ones. The criteria for formation of non--stationary semi-periodic structures in a system of gravitating particles described by Vlasov--Poisson equations are obtained in the case of that repulsive term. The obtained dispersion relations for the Vlasov equation in the vicinity of the singular point of the modified gravitational potential demonstrate the possibility of the emergence of filaments as coherent complex states of relative equilibrium in non--stationary systems as structures of low dimensions (walls), and voids between them, of scales (diameters) defined by the balance between the gravity and repulsive term of the cosmological constant.

Tidal disruption effects near black holes and Lambda-gravity

The tidal disruption of stars in the vicinity of massive black holes is discussed in the context of $Λ$-gravity. The latter provides an explanation to the Hubble tension as a possible consequence of two Hubble flows, the local and global ones. The bunch of notions which play role for the considered tidal effect are obtained, along with the rate of the disrupted stars. The role of pulsars is emphasized due to their ability to penetrate up to the horizon of the massive black hole as for them the tidal radius can reach the horizon. Tidal disruption mechanism also can lead to segregation of stars by their mean density vs the distance from the black hole, the denser stars surviving at shorter distances. The interplay of the central gravity field and the repulsive $Λ$-term increasing with radius and its certain observational consequences are discussed.

The cosmological constant vs adiabatic invariance

The property of adiabatic invariance is studied for the generalized potential satisfying the condition of identity of sphere's and point mass's gravity. That function contains a second term corresponding to the cosmological constant as weak-field General Relativity and enables to describe the dynamics of groups and clusters of galaxies and the Hubble tension as a result of two flows, local and global ones. Using the adiabatic invariance approach we derive the orbital parameters via Weierstrass functions, including the formula for the eccentricity which explicitly reveals the differences from the Kepler problem.

On the origin of cosmic web

The emergence of one and two-dimensional configurations -- Zeldovich pancakes -- progenitors of the observed filaments and clusters and groups of galaxies, is predicted by means of a developed kinetic approach in analyzing the evolution of initial density perturbations. The self-consistent gravitational interaction described by Vlasov-Poisson set of equations with branching conditions is shown to predict two-dimensional structures as of layers of increased density and voids between them, i.e. the cellular macro-structure of the Universe. The modified potential of weak-field General Relativity is involved, which enables one to explain the Hubble tension, revealing the conceptual discrepancy in the local galactic flows and the cosmological expansion. This demonstrates the possible essential role of self-consistent gravity in the formation of the cosmic web.

On the Galactic CMB apex

The hierarchy of motions that we are participating is well known, from the Earth's motion around the Sun and Sun's motion in the Milky Way, up to the Local Group's motion within the Virgo Supercluster of galaxies. The dipole anisotropy of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) enables to define Sun's motion with respect to the CMB "absolute" frame. We now present evidence for CMB Galactic dipole signal due to the Sun's motion in the Galaxy, by means of Planck 2018 data and Gaia Early Data Release 3. The signal is weak and frequency depended, the strongest is at 30 GHz, up to 7.6σconfidence. The amplitude of the signal interpreted as Doppler caused, corresponds to velocity $v \approx 225.5 \pm 16.2 \, km\, sec^{-1}$, in agreement with Solar system's velocity with respect to the Galactic center. While the revealing of precise coordinates of the apex will need further refined analysis at various bands, the detected weak signal can indicate the appearance of a new cosmic scaling in CMB, thus opening a link to a bunch of physical effects.

Hubble tension and absolute constraints on the local Hubble parameter

It is shown, from the two independent approaches of McCrea-Milne and of Zeldovich, that one can fully recover the set equations corresponding to the relativistic equations of the expanding universe of Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker geometry. Although similar, the Newtonian and relativistic set of equations have a principal difference in the content and hence define two flows, local and global ones, thus naturally exposing the Hubble tension at the presence of the cosmological constant Λ. From this, we obtain absolute constraints on the lower and upper values for the local Hubble parameter, \sqrt{Λc^2/3} \simeq 56.2$ and \sqrt{Λc^2} \simeq 97.3 (km/sec Mpc^{-1}), respectively. The link to the so-called maximum force--tension issue in cosmological models is revealed.

Cosmic voids and induced hyperbolicity. III. tracing redshift dependence

The currently released datasets of the observational surveys reveal the redshift dependence of the physical features of cosmic voids. We study the void induced hyperbolicity, that is the deviation of the photon beams propagating the voids, taking into account the redshift dependence of the void size indicated by the observational surveys. The cumulative image distortion parameter is obtained for the case of a sequence of variable size voids and given underdensity parameters. The derived formulae applied along with those of redshift distortion ones, enable one to trace the number and the physical parameters of the line-of-sight voids from the analysis of the distortion in the galactic surveys.}

Cosmological constant, information and gedanken experiments with black hole horizons

The cosmological constant if considered as a fundamental constant, provides an information treatment for gravitation problems, both cosmological and of black holes. The efficiency of that approach is shown via gedanken experiments for the information behavior of the horizons for Schwarzschild-de Sitter and Kerr-de Sitter metrics. A notion of entropy regarding any observer and in all possible non-extreme black hole solutions is suggested, linked also to Bekenstein bound. The suggested information approach forbids the existence of naked singularities.

Cosmic voids and induced hyperbolicity. II. Sensitivity to void/wall scales

Cosmic voids as typical under-density regions in the large scale Universe are known for their hyperbolic properties as an ability to deviate the photon beams. The under-density then is acting as the negative curvature in the hyperbolic spaces. The hyperbolicity of voids has to lead to distortion in the statistical analysis at galactic surveys. We reveal the sensitivity of the hyperbolicity and hence of the distortion with respect to the ratio of void/wall scales which are observable parameters. This provides a principal possibility to use the distortion in the galactic surveys in revealing the line-of sight number of cosmic voids and their characteristic scales.

Ultrahigh accuracy time synchronization technique operation on the Moon

Ultrahigh accuracy time synchronization technique based on the optical frequency comb and the GHZ radio frequency spiral scanning deflector is suggested to install on the Moon during the ARTEMIS mission. The comparison with the parameters of an analogous device operated in the Earth gravity will enable the testing to high accuracy fundamental physical principles.

Hubble tension vs two flows

The Hubble tension is shown to be solvable, without any free parameter, conceptually and quantitatively, within the approach of modified weak-field General Relativity involving the cosmological constant $Λ$. That approach enables one to describe in a unified picture both the dynamics of dark matter containing galaxies and the accelerated expansion of the Universe, thus defining a {\it local} Hubble constant of a local flow and the {\it global} one. The data on the dark matter content of peculiar galaxy samples are shown to be compatible to that unified picture. Future more refined surveys of galaxy distribution, hierarchical dynamics and flows within the vicinity of the Local group and the Virgo supercluster can be decisive in revealing the possible common nature of the dark sector.

Black hole shadow to probe modified gravity

We study the black hole's shadow for Schwarzschild - de Sitter and Kerr - de Sitter metrics with the contribution of the cosmological constant Λ. Based on the reported parameters of the M87* black hole shadow we obtain constraints for the $Λ$ and show the agreement with the cosmological data. It is shown that, the coupling of the Λ-term with the spin parameter reveals peculiarities for the photon spheres and hence for the shadows. Within the parametrized post-Newtonian formalism the constraint for the corresponding Λ-determined parameter is obtained.

Cosmic voids and induced hyperbolicity

Cosmic voids - the low density regions in the Universe - as characteristic features of the large scale matter distribution, are known for their hyperbolic properties. The latter implies the deviation of photon beams due to their underdensity, thus mimicing the negative curvature. We now show that the hyperbolicity can be induced not only by negative curvature or underdensity but also depends on the anisotropy of the photon beams.

Lense-Thirring precession and gravito-gyromagnetic ratio

The geodesics of bound spherical orbits i.e. of orbits performing Lense-Thirring precession, are obtained in the case of the $Λ$-term within gravito-electromagnetic formalism. It is shown that the presence of the $Λ$-term in the equations of gravity leads to both relativistic and non-relativistic corrections in the equations of motion. The contribution of the $Λ$-term in the Lense-Thirring precession is interpreted as an additional relativistic correction and the gravito-gyromagnetic ratio is defined.

On the Lambda-evolution of galaxy clusters

The evolution of galaxy clusters can be affected by the repulsion described by the cosmological constant. This conclusion is reached within the modified weak-field General Relativity approach where the cosmological constant Λenables to describe the common nature of the dark matter and the dark energy. Geometrical methods of theory of dynamical systems and the Ricci curvature criterion are used to reveal the difference in the instability properties of galaxy clusters which determine their evolutionary paths. Namely, it is shown that the clusters determined by the gravity with Λ-repulsion tend to become even more unstable than those powered only by Newtonian gravity, the effect to be felt at cosmological time scales.

Machine learning and Kolmogorov analysis to reveal gravitational lenses

We present an automated approach to detect and extract information from the astronomical datasets on the shapes of such objects as galaxies, star clusters and, especially, elongated ones such as the gravitational lenses. First, the Kolmogorov stochasticity parameter is used to retrieve the sub-regions that worth further attention. Then we turn to image processing and machine learning Principal Component Analysis algorithm to retrieve the sought objects and reveal the information on their morphologies. We show the capability of our automated method to identify distinct objects, including of and to classify them based on the input parameters. A catalog of possible lensing objects is retrieved as an output of the software, then their inspection is performed for the candidates that survive the filters applied.

Rotating baryonic dark halos

Galactic halos are of great importance for our understanding of both the dark matter nature and primordial non-Gaussianity in the perturbation spectrum, a powerful discriminant of the physical mechanisms that generated the cosmological fluctuations observed today. In this paper we analyze {\it Planck} data towards the galaxy M104 (Sombrero) and find an asymmetry in the microwave temperature which extends up to about $1 \degr$ from the galactic center. This frequency-independent asymmetry is consistent with that induced by the Doppler effect due to the galactic rotation and we find a probability of less than about $0.2\%$ that it is due to a random fluctuation of the microwave background. In addition, {\it Planck} data indicate the relatively complex dynamics of the M104 galactic halo, and this appears to be in agreement with previous studies. In view of our previous analysis of the dark halos of nearby galaxies, this finding confirms the efficiency of the method used in revealing and mapping the dark halos around relatively nearby edge-on galaxies.

H_0 tension: clue to common nature of dark sector?

The recently sharpened H_0 tension is argued not to be a result of data calibration or other systematic but an indication for the common nature of dark matter and dark energy. This conclusion is devised within modified weak-field General Relativity where the accelerated expansion of the Universe and the dynamics of galaxy groups and clusters are described by the same parameter, the cosmological constant. The common nature of the dark sector hence will result in intrinsic discrepancy/tension between the local and global determinations of values of the Hubble constant.
