On the role of shear in cosmological averaging II: large voids, non-empty voids and a network of different voids

Abstract: Abstract:We study the effect of shear on the cosmological backreaction in the context of matching voids and walls together using the exact inhomogeneous Lemaître-Tolman-Bondi solution. Generalizing JCAP 1010 (2010) 021, we allow the size of the voids to be arbitrary and the densities of the voids and walls to vary in the range 0 ≤ Ω v ≤ Ω w ≤ 1. We derive the exact analytic result for the backreaction and consider its series expansion in powers of the ratio of the void size to the horizon size, r 0 /t 0 . In a… Show more

“…This was shown for the LT model. 44,45 For the Szekeres model with the central observer, the averaging wipes out the dipole and the result of averaging leads to the same conclusions as for the Lemaître-Tolman model. 46 In order to obtain large backreaction or large observational effects for these types of models one needs to consider ultra large scales, i.e., of order (or even larger) of Gpc scales.…”

“…Recently there have been several papers [21,22,23,24,25,26,27,18,10] , which show that the magnitude and importance of these backreactions is still a topic of hot discussion. Timescape cosmology and similar inhomogeneous cosmologies may provide possible solutions for the dark energy problem, but the estimates of the magnitude of backreaction from voids and their influence on the expansion of the universe range from negligible to extremely important [28,29,26,14]. Therefore, observational tests are essential for the ongoing debate.…”

“…First, we investigate the backreaction term in Buchert's equation (25). We numerically integrate the underlined part of equation (25) depending on the averaging scale l. As one can see from Figure 2, the backreaction normalized by θ · is negative.…”

“…By averaging we can not leave this class, instead we may end up in a special subclass of LRS class II dust models. We performed averaging of the evolution equation for expansion (25) and of the evolution equations for different products of expansion, shear, density and electric part of the Weyl tensor. From this construction we can see that the averaged equations contain an averaged LTB model, but generally not e.g.…”
