Dear Wikiwand AI, let's keep it short by simply answering these key questions:
Can you list the top facts and stats about Milne model?
Summarize this article for a 10 year old
The Milne model was a special-relativistic cosmological model proposed by Edward Arthur Milne in 1935.[1] It is mathematically equivalent to a special case of the FLRW model in the limit of zero energy density and it obeys the cosmological principle[citation needed]. The Milne model is also similar to Rindler space in that both are simple re-parameterizations of flat Minkowski space.
This article's factual accuracy is disputed. (May 2018) |
Since it features both zero energy density and maximally negative spatial curvature, the Milne model is inconsistent with cosmological observations[citation needed]. Cosmologists actually observe the universe's density parameter to be consistent with unity and its curvature to be consistent with flatness.[2]
