About Physics
[Retweet of S.C. Kavassalis words] "The cosmological constant (non)-problem" by Eugenio Bianchi, A talk at International Loop Quantum Gravity Seminar (October 19, 2010). The PDF file of the slides is also available. —"The acceleration in the cosmic expansion is well-understood and well-accounted for, by current fundamental physical theory. It is not due to a vacuum energy or a mysterious substance; but is a long distance repulsive force due to the intrinsic dynamics of geometry."
