Observational Evidence for Two Cosmological Predictions Made by Bit-String Physics
H. Pierre Noyes Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94309 Abstract A decade ago bit-string physics predicted that the baryon/photon ratio at the time of nucleogenesis η = 1/256^4 and that the dark matter/baryonic matter ratio ΩDM/ΩB = 12.7. Accepting that the normalized Hubble constant is constrained observationally to lie in the range 0.6 < h0 < 0.8, this translates into a prediction that 0.325 > ΩM > 0.183. This and a prediction by E.D.Jones, using a modelindependent argument and ideas with which bit-string physics is not inconsistent, that the cosmological constant ΩΛ = 0.6 ± 0.1 are in reasonable agreement with recent cosmological observations, including the BOOMERANG data. http://www.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/getdoc/slac-pub-8779.pdf
