Supernovae evidence for an accelerating expansion of the universe
George A. Baker,
Abstract
Recent experimental results find strong indications that the universe is flat, while other experimental results from supernovae Ia observations have been interpreted to show that, not only that there is an accelerating expansion of the universe, but also that the universe is strongly curved. By means of a recently proposed metric, I am able to show that the experimental results which had previously been analyzed to give a strong curvature are quite consistent with a flat universe, thus resolving the apparent mismatch. The conclusion of these latter authors which indicated an accelerating expansion of the universe remains unchanged.
