The Application of the Theory of Variable Speed of Light on the Universe

Abstract

Markus Schonlinner

The Friedman-Lemaître-equations describe the expansion of the universe in the Standard Model. Thereby, the observed red-shift of the galaxies is interpreted as escape velocity. By applying the theory of variable speed of light, however, the galactic red-shift can be described as a phenomenon, which only seems to be a movement and can be explained by the variation of the cosmic gravitational potential. The space itself varies its properties, the objects in the space do not change their movement. With only very general assumptions about the properties of the universe an alternative concept of the universe is developed, which is significantly less complex than the Standard Model. Nonetheless, it is possible to describe consistently the fundamental observations with a minimum number of parameters.
