爱因斯坦认为存在一个宇宙常数来填补现在暗能量的位置。
Einstein proposed the existence of something he called the cosmological constant, to fulfil the role now assigned to dark energy.
不管是宇宙常数还是第五元素,都属于暗能量的?畴。
Both the cosmological constant and quintessence fall into the general category of dark energy.

Einstein is universe of supportive static state and not be expanding universe and put forward cosmic constant.
最受认可的解释是所谓的宇宙常数——一个广义相对论仍未被发现的结论。
The favoured explanation is the so-called cosmological constant-an as-yet-unobserved consequence of the general theory of relativity.
尽管某种程度上宇宙常数并不和两个团队的结论矛盾,但是也可能导致双倍的错误。
Even though the odds were against both teams being wrong somehow, it was impossible to rule that double error out either.
在这样的情况下,由于纯量场是爱因斯坦宇宙常数最简化的归纳,因此它会产生作用。
In these contexts, the fields work because they are the simplest generalization of Einstein's cosmological constant.
另外,两位科学家计划下一步研究它可能对宇宙常数造成的效应,这项工作没有在这篇论文中展开。
In addition, the scientists plan to look at the possible effects of a cosmological constant, which they did not investigate here.
爱因斯坦即是一个好的榜样,他在企图建立一个静态的宇宙模型时引入了宇宙常数,他称此为一生中最大的错误。
A good example of this was Einstein, who called the cosmological constant, which he introduced when he was trying to make a static model of the universe, the biggest mistake of his life.
爱因斯坦将其称为宇宙常数,并略带厌恶地将它加入他的理论,因为如果没有宇宙常数,它的理论在数学上优美极了。
Einstein called the something the cosmological constant and added it to his theory with some distaste, because the work had been so mathematically beautiful without it.
天文学家于1998年发现到宇宙正在加速膨胀,但其加速度所对应到的宇宙常数,却是量子理论预测值的10- 120倍。
In 1998 astronomers discovered that the universe's expansion is accelerating at a rate consistent with a cosmological constant 10-120 times the value predicted by quantum theory.
摆弄少数几个物理常数,我们最终将会导致没有恒星,或者没有物质,或者宇宙只能持续地存在于极短的一瞬间的结论。
Tinker with a few physical constants and we would end up with no stars, or no matter, or a universe that lasts only for the blink of an eye.
在宇宙的其他这些常数不同的地区,生命就可能不会存在,他说。
In other regions of the universe where the constants are different, life may be absent, he said.
其中,速度表示星系后退的速度,H0为哈勃常数,也即宇宙膨胀速率的参数,而距离指的是星系与相比较星系之间的距离。
H0 is the Hubble constant, or parameter that indicates the rate at which the universe is expanding; and distance is the galaxy's distance from the one with which it's being compared.
相反,在宇宙中,该常数会随所在的位置发生变化。
Rather, it seems to vary from place to place within the universe.
根据一项新的研究表明,宇宙的一个基本常数可能终究并非常数。
A fundamental constant of the universe may not be so constant after all, according to a new study.
假使我们生活在某个典型的宇宙中,那么这个宇宙应该具有能够优化黑洞产生所需要的物理规律和物理常数,只是至今我们还无从知道,我们所处的宇宙是否符合这个要求。
If we live in a typical universe, then it ought to have physical laws and constants that optimise the production of black holes. It is not yet known whether our universe fits the bill.
伏拉汤姆:但是,现在有两位物理学家告诉我们,在他们研究的宇宙中,在整个宇宙的不同部分,这个常数实际上可能是会改变的。
FLATOW: And so now we have this new information from two physicists who are suggesting that the constant, as they look out into the universe, may actually vary in different parts of the universe.
研究人员总结说,既然如果alpha常数随时间变化的话,这两种结果就会自相矛盾,那么该常数就必然在宇宙中不同的位置存在不同的值。
Since those two results would contradict each other if the alpha constant varied with time, the constant must take on different values in different areas of the universe, the researchers concluded.
宇宙普适常数并非“恒”量?
我们可以在宇宙里遥远的地方测量阿尔法常数,从而通过研究这些原子光谱线回到过去。
And alpha is something that we can measure at distant places in the universe and thereby back in time by looking at these atomic spectral lines.
“现在我们有了一种解释,”Flambaum说,“如果精细结构常数随空间变化,我们就只是恰好存在在宇宙中这些常数适宜我们的地区罢了。”
"Now we have an explanation," Flambaum said. "If fundamental constants vary in space, we just appear in the area of the universe where constants are good for us."
并且,被称作“魔幻数字”的微细构造常数(缩写为‘alpha’)似乎在整个宇宙中不停的变化着。
Instead, this' magic number 'known as the fine-structure constant —' alpha 'for short — appears to vary throughout the universe.
并且,被称作“魔幻数字”的微细构造常数(缩写为‘alpha’)似乎在整个宇宙中不停的变化着。
