Inflation and Rapid Expansion in a Variable G Model

Abstract: Cosmic inflation is considered assuming a cosmologically varying Newtonian gravitational constant, G. Utilizing two specific models for, ( ), where, a , is the cosmic scale parameter, we find that the Hubble parameter, H, at inception of G −1 , may be as high as 7.56 E53 km/(s Mpc) for model A, or, 8.55 E53 km/(s Mpc) for model B, making these good candidates for inflation. The Hubble parameter is inextricably linked to G by Friedmanns' equation, and if G did not exist prior to an inception temperature, then n… Show more

“…Newton's constant, G, is assumed to depend solely on the CMB radiation temperature, which permeates space. As a matter of fact, we consider G −1 to be a fundamental property of the vacuum, an order parameter, which vanishes at sufficiently high temperatures [17] [18] [19], much like magnetization in a paramagnet. If we did not allow G to vary with cosmological time, then there would be no mechanism for the Planck length, Pl l , to scale.…”
