The Universe

A universe media is considered as a bulk viscosity described by inhomogeneous equation of state (EOS) of the form [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a time-dependent parameter. A generalized dynamical equation for the scale factor of the universe is proposed to describe the cosmological evolution, in which we assume the bulk viscosity and time-dependent parameter [Formula: see text] are linear combination of two terms of the form: [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], i.e.[Formula: see text]one is constant and other is proportional to Hubble parameter [Formula: see text]. In this framework, we demonstrate that this model can be used to explain the dark energy dominated universe, and the inhomogeneous term of specific form introduced in EOS, may lead to three kinds of fates of cosmological evolution: no future singularity, big rip or Type[Formula: see text]III singularity as presented by [S. Nojiri and S. D. Odintsov, Phys. Rev. D 72, 023003 (2005)].

Mass Functions

AbstractWe derive the mass function of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) over the redshift range 0 > z ≲ 2, using the latest deep luminosity and mass functions of field galaxies. Applying this mass function, combined with the bolometric luminosity function of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), into the the continuity equation of SMBH number density, we explicitly obtain the mass-dependent cosmological evolution of the radiative efficiency for accretion. We suggest that the accretion history of SMBHs and their spins evolve in two distinct regimes: an early phase of prolonged accretion, plausibly driven by major mergers, during which the black hole spins up, then switching to a period of random, episodic accretion, governed by minor mergers and internal secular processes, during which the hole spins down. The transition epoch depends on mass, mirroring other evidence for “cosmic downsizing” in the AGN population.

AbstractX-ray spectroscopy is key to address the theme of “The Hot Universe”, the still poorly understood astrophysical processes driving the cosmological evolution of the baryonic hot gas traceable through its electromagnetic radiation. Two future X-ray observatories: the JAXA-led XRISM (due to launch in the early 2020s), and the ESA Cosmic Vision L-class mission Athena (early 2030s) will provide breakthroughs in our understanding of how and when large-scale hot gas structures formed in the Universe, and in tracking their evolution from the formation epoch to the present day.

Dipole Modulation

We show that perturbations generated during the anisotropic pre-inflationary stage of cosmic evolution may affect cosmological observations today for a certain range of parameters. Due to the anisotropic nature of the universe during such early times, it might explain some of the observed signals of large scale anisotropy. In particular, we argue that the alignment of CMB quadrupole and octopole may be explained by the Sachs–Wolfe effect due to the large scale anisotropic modes from very early times of cosmological evolution. We also comment on how the observed dipole modulation of CMB power may be explained within this framework.
