Puzzling initial conditions in the Rh= ct model
In recent years, some studies have drawn attention to the lack of large-angle correlations in the observed cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies with respect to that predicted within the standard Λ CDM model. Lately, it has been argued that such a lack of correlations could be e...

In recent years, some studies have drawn attention to the lack of large-angle correlations in the observed cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature anisotropies with respect to that predicted within the standard Λ CDM model.
