Accelerating Universe: Theory versus Experiment
by

Publisher: arXiv
Number of pages: 43

Description:
We present gravitation as a theory in which the coordinates are distances and velocities between galaxies. We show that there are three possibilities for the Universe to expand: decelerating, constant and accelerating, and it is shown that the Universe is now in the latter phase.
