摘要
The string-dominated universe is a flat universe that locally resembles an open universe and Bts dynamical measures of power spectra, cluster abundances, redshift distortions, lensing constraints, luminosity, angular diameter distance relations, and microwave background observations. We show examples of networks that might give rise to recent string-domination when formed by a phase transition near the electro-weak symmetry breaking scale. We discuss how future observations can distinguish this model from other cosmologies.
