  • The universe is not only expanding, but also accelerating, which causes problems with the cosmological constant and dark energy.
  • A Geneva researcher proposes a new idea: the expansion of the universe may be a mirage due to the evolution of protons and electrons.
  • The expansion of the universe is accelerating, but the cosmological constant is not consistent with observations.
  • The Lombreiser offers a mathematical reformulation of the Standard Model, leaving the physical dimensions unaffected.
  • The Lombreiser considers the Universe to be static, and fluctuations in the field mass over time cause large redshifts for distant galaxies.
  • The Lombreiser theory explains the problem of dark energy and can be related to the axion field.
  • The Lombreiser's theoretical model is difficult to prove and observe, but can help unravel the mysteries of the observable universe.

Don't suppose someone can ELI5 the axion field and how this relates to QFT.
