Understand
The discovery of cosmic acceleration has presented a unique challenge for cosmologists.
- As observational cosmology forges ahead, theorists have struggled to make sense of a standard model that requires extreme fine tuning.
- This challenge is known as the cosmological constant problem.
- The theory of gravitational aether is an alternative to general relativity that does not suffer from this fine-tuning problem, as it decouples the quantum field theory vacuum from geometry, while remaining consistent with other tests of gravity.
