The Cosmological Arrow of Time and the Retarded Potentials
Alla Yurova, Artyom Yurov, Valerian Yurov
TL;DR
This paper links the cosmological arrow of time to the directionality of retarded radiation, supporting the idea that the universe's expansion causes stars to radiate light and explains the darkness of the night sky.
Contribution
It presents a mathematical model connecting the cosmological arrow of time with retarded potentials, confirming the hypothesis that universe expansion influences stellar radiation.
Findings
The cosmological arrow of time causes the radiation arrow of time.
Stars radiate light due to the universe's expansion.
Dark night sky results from cosmological expansion.
Abstract
We demonstrate that the cosmological arrow of time is the cause for the arrow of time associated with the retarded radiation. This implies that the proposed mathematical model serves to confirm the hypothesis of Gold and Wheeler that the stars radiate light instead of consuming it only because the universe is expanding -- just like the darkness of the night sky is a side-effect of the global cosmological expansion.
