In continuing our earlier research, we find the formulae needed to determine the arbitrary functions in the Lemaître-Tolman model when the evolution proceeds from a given initial velocity distribution to a final state that is determined either by a density distribution or by a velocity distribution. In each case the initial and final distributions uniquely determine the L-T model that evolves between them, and the sign of the energy-function is determined by a simple inequality. We also show how the final density profile can be more accurately fitted to observational data than was done in our previous paper. We work out new numerical examples of the evolution: the creation of a galaxy cluster out of different velocity distributions, reflecting the current data on temperature anisotropies of CMB, the creation of the same out of different density distributions, and the creation of a void. The void in its present state is surrounded by a nonsingular wall of high density.
I. SCOPEIn a previous paper [1], which we shall call Paper I, we showed that one can uniquely define the Lemaître-Tolman cosmological model [2,3] by specifying an initial density profile (i.e. the mass-density as a function of the radial coordinate at an initial instant t = t 1 ) and a final density profile. The formulae defining the L-T functions E(M ) and t B (M ) (where M is the active gravitational mass, used here as a radial coordinate) are implicit but unique, and can be solved for E and t B numerically. (For definitions of E and t B see eqs. (2.1) and (2.2).) We also worked out a numerical example in which a galaxycluster-like final profile was created out of an initial profile whose density amplitude and linear size were small.In the present paper, we develop that study for new elements: we show that instead of a density distribution, one can specify a velocity distribution (strictly speaking, this is R ,t /M 1/3 -a measure of the velocity) at either the initial instant or the final instant or both.

We also show how to adapt the initial and final density profiles to the astrophysical data more precisely than it was done in paper I. We provide numerical examples of L-T evolution between an initial profile (of density or velocity) consistent with the implications of the CMB measurements, and a final profile that corresponds either to a galaxy cluster or to a void.The paper is arranged as follows. We recall the basic properties of the L-T model in sec. 2. In sec. 3 we describe how the final profile can be adapted to observational data more exactly than in Paper I. In sec. 4 we find the implicit formulae to define the L-T functions E(M ) and t B (M ) ...
