The model postulates a proper metric set of an <i>element</i> of distributed matter and asserts that space-time is a mutual physical <i>embedding</i> of such sets. The simplest MES geometry is constructed (its <i>relativistic</i> Finsler version) with a connection that depends on the properties of matter and its fields (torsion and nonmetricity are absent). The field hypothesis and the Least Action Principle of the matter-field system lead to Einstein-type and Maxwell-type equations, and their nonlinearity to the <i>anisotropic</i> field contribution to the <i>seed</i> mass of matter. It is shown that the seed matter plays the role of a physical vacuum of the <i>Embedding</i> and determines the cosmological constant. In the special case of a conformal metric, the Maxwell-type equations reduce to the Maxwell equations themselves and a negative electromagnetic contribution. A possible experimental verification of this result is evaluated. The “redshift” effect in an electric field is also mentioned as a method for studying the vacuum and a relic electric charge.

In the framework of Macroscopic gravity (MG), a covariant averaging procedure, this noncommutativity gives averaged field equations with an additional correction term known as back-reaction. It is important to explore whether such a term, even if known to be small, may or may not cause any systematic effect for precision cosmology. In this work, we explore the application of the MG formalism to an almost Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) model. Namely, we find solutions to the field equations of MG taking the averaged universe to be almost-FLRW modeled using a linearly perturbed FLRW metric. We study several solutions with different functional forms of the metric perturbations including plane-wave ansatzes. We find that back-reaction terms are present not only at the background level but also at the perturbed level, reflecting the nonlinear nature of the averaging process. Thus the averaging effect can extend to both the expansion and the growth of structure in the universe.</p>","PeriodicalId":583,"journal":{"name":"Gravitation and Cosmology","volume":"29 2","pages":"110 - 120"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4423050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
