Calculating Radiation Temperature Anisotropy in Flat Space Cosmology

The purpose of this paper is to show how one can use the FSC model of gravitational entropy to calculate cosmic radiation temperature anisotropy for any past cosmic time t since the Planck scale. Cosmic entropy follows the Bekenstein-Hawking definition, although in the correct-scaling form of S , which scales 60.63 logs of 10 from the Planck scale. In the FSC model, cosmic radiation temperature anisotropy At = (t/to). The derived past anisotropy value can be compared to current co-moving anisotropy defined as unity (to/to). Calculated in this way, current gravitational entropy and temperature anisotropy have maximum values, and the earliest universe has the lowest entropy and temperature anisotropy values. This approach comports with the second law of thermodynamics and the theoretical basis of the Sachs-Wolfe effect, gravitational entropy as defined by Roger Penrose, and Erik Verlinde’s “emergent gravity” theory.


Introduction and Background
In the July 2018 issue of Journal of Modern Physics, the paper entitled, "How the CMB Anisotropy Pattern Could Be a Map of Gravitational Entropy" [1] presents the rationale for Flat Space Cosmology (FSC) calculations of gravitational entropy in the form of S .The theoretical basis for doing so is the Sachs-Wolfe effect [2].The Sachs-Wolfe effect is widely considered to be the source of large angular scale temperature fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background (CMB).However, in a spatially flat universe, the Sachs-Wolfe effect can also be considered to be the source of the smaller angular scale fluctuations of the CMB temperature anisotropy [3].The Boomerang Collaboration [4] reported CMB anisotropy observations closely fitting "the theoretical predictions for a spatially flat cosmological model with an exactly scale invariant primordial power spectrum for the adiabatic growing mode" [Bucher (2015), page 6].Thus, this theoretical basis for the Sachs-Wolfe effect as a measure of "gravitational potential" appears to explain the tight correlation between the FSC CMB anisotropy calculations and the observed CMB anisotropy [5] [6] [7].
Furthermore, the FSC CMB anisotropy paper and its companion paper [8] in the July 2018 Journal of Modern Physics show how the FSC model dovetails nicely with Erik Verlinde's concept of "emergent gravity" as an emergent property of cosmic entropy [9] [10] and Roger Penrose's concept of gravitational entropy [11] based upon his "Weyl's curvature hypothesis" [12] [13].
The purpose of this paper is to show how the FSC CMB anisotropy paper opens the way for a definition of cosmic radiation temperature anisotropy at any cosmic temperature T, whether it is in the form of "Universal Temperature" T U , as defined in FSC reference [14], or in the Kelvin temperature scale.Although the FSC CMB anisotropy paper shows how to calculate the gravitational entropy ratios relating entropies at given years of cosmic time since the Planck epoch, these values can also be calculated in given seconds of cosmic time since the Planck epoch.This allows for the first year cosmic times and gravitational entropies to be correlated second-by-second as shown below (see Equation ( 3)).
Therefore, cosmic radiation temperature anisotropy is not only predicted by FSC for the CMB recombination/decoupling "last scattering surface" but also for any other cosmic time t.
The rationale for generalizing the radiation temperature anisotropy calculations to be presented herein can be summarized as follows: Sachs and Wolfe used a gravitational redshift theoretical argument that radiation temperature anisotropy could be a result of inhomogeneous gravitational particle clustering.
So, while they applied their argument in anticipation of refined CMB anisotropy observations, there was nothing particularly special about the CMB emission event with respect to their gravitational redshift argument.The recombina- tion/decoupling event concerned photon emission, making the event observable.
However, the coupling of electrons with protons to form the first hydrogen atoms should have no impact whatsoever on gravitational particle clustering.As explained in reference [1], the Sachs-Wolfe effect is now widely considered to be the theoretical basis for large angular scale radiation temperature fluctuations.
Furthermore, in a spatially flat universe, the Sachs-Wolfe effect can also be considered to be the source of the smaller angular scale fluctuations of the CMB temperature anisotropy [3].Therefore, based upon this scale-invariant flat un- iverse Sachs-Wolfe effect, the calculation method presented in reference [1] and herein is believed to be generalizable to any other gravitational particle clustering stage (i.e., gravitational entropy stage) of universal expansion.The reader will maximally benefit in reading the present paper after first reading FSC references [1] [8] and [14].FSC is a mathematical model of the Hawking-Penrose conjecture that a universe smoothly expanding from a singularity can be treated, under general relativity, much like a time-reversal of giant black hole collapse to a singularity.A brief introductory review of the FSC assumptions, and their justification, is provided below.The five assumptions of FSC are: The Five Assumptions of Flat Space Cosmology 1) The cosmic model is an ever-expanding sphere such that the cosmic horizon always translates at speed of light c with respect to its geometric center at all times t.The observer is operationally-defined to be at this geometric center at all times t .

Calculating Radiation Temperature Anisotropy in FSC
Equation (11) from reference [14] gives an FSC cosmic time value of 10 showing the direct proportionality relationship between gravitational entropy S and cosmic time t.Speed of light c and Planck length L p are assumed to be constants over cosmic time.Thus, if we normalize the proportionality constant to unity and operationally define S in terms of seconds, S = 10 −42.965 at 10 −42.965 second of cosmic time at Planck temperature 5.6 × 10 30 K; S = 10 11.58 at 10 11.58 seconds of cosmic time at CMB beginning temperature 3000 K; S = 10 12.6 at 10 12.6 seconds of cosmic time at end-of-decoupling tempera- ture 924.63 K; S = 10 17.66 at 10 17.66 seconds of cosmic time at current temperature 2.72548 K.
The above CMB emission epoch gravitational entropies (10 11.58  and 10 12.6 ) can then be related to current cosmic entropy (10 17.66 ), in ratio form, as follows: These derived values of the beginning and ending CMB radiation temperature anisotropy are the same as those calculated in reference [1].This value range fits the COBE DMR CMB dT/T anisotropy measurement of 0.66 × 10 −5 , as well as with the WMAP and Planck report anisotropy estimates of "approximately" 10 −5 .
Thus, if this process for calculating the CMB radiation temperature anisotropy as gravitational entropy ratios can be generalized and extended all the way back to the Planck epoch (and conceivably beyond), the formula for doing such calculations is: wherein A t is the radiation temperature anisotropy at cosmic time t, t S is the gravitational entropy (cosmic entropy) at cosmic time t, o S is the gravitational entropy (cosmic entropy) at current time t o , and t/t o is the ratio of these time values.This radiation temperature anisotropy formula can also be substituted by other FSC parameters correlated to t S , as seen in reference [8].Thus, wherein R t is the cosmic radius at cosmic time t and R o is the current observed cosmic radius.
wherein T o is the current cosmic radiation temperature in degrees Kelvin (2.72548 K) and T t is the cosmic radiation temperature in degrees Kelvin at cosmic time t.
wherein T Uo is the current cosmic radiation temperature in Universal Temperature units and T Ut is the cosmic radiation temperature in Universal Temperature units at cosmic time t.As indicated in reference [14], T Ut is defined by Based upon this calculation method, the following Figure 1 and Figure 2 can be presented.For comparison, the reader is referred to Figure 1 and Figure 5 in reference [14].The lines are linear because the vertical and horizontal axes scale in a logarithmic fashion.

Discussion
Extensive comparisons between FSC and standard inflationary cosmology are given in reference [15].Standard inflationary cosmology has no theoretical basis E. T. Tatum In contrast, the FSC model, as detailed in references [1] and [8], indicates that the CMB pattern could simply be a map of gravitational entropy.The theoretical basis for this interpretation owes much to the prior work of Sachs and Wolfe, Hawking, Penrose and Verlinde, as discussed in both FSC papers.Verlinde's papers [9] [10], in particular, address the deep correlation between cosmic entropy and gravity.Thus, given the FSC success in correlating gravitational entropy in the form of S with the observed anisotropy of the CMB pattern, the current paper proposes a reasonable extension of the same rationale to calculating radiation temperature anisotropy at any past cosmic time t relative to current cosmic anisotropy.For comparison purposes, current co-moving anisotropy can be defined as unity [i.e., log(t o /t o ) = 0].Note that, by this definition of current co-moving anisotropy, current gravitational entropy and temperature anisotropy have maximum values, and the earliest universe has the lowest entropy and temperature anisotropy values.This approach comports with the second law of thermodynamics and the theoretical basis of the Sachs-Wolfe effect, gravitational entropy as defined by Roger Penrose, and Erik Verlinde's "emergent gravity" theory.

Summary and Conclusions
The purpose of this paper has been to show how one can use the FSC model of gravitational entropy to calculate cosmic radiation temperature anisotropy for any past cosmic time t since the Planck scale.In the FSC model, cosmic radiation temperature anisotropy A t = (t/t o ).The derived past anisotropy value can be compared to current co-moving anisotropy defined as unity (t o /t o ).Calculated in this way, current gravitational entropy and temperature anisotropy have maximum values, and the earliest universe has the lowest entropy and temperature anisotropy values.This approach comports with the second law of thermodynamics and the theoretical basis of the Sachs-Wolfe effect, gravitational entropy as defined by Roger Penrose, and Erik Verlinde's "emergent gravity" theory.
