Primordial Rotation of the Universe and Angular Momentum of a wide range of Celestial Objects


Abstract in English

The origin of rotation or spin of objects, from stars to galaxies, is still an unanswered question. Even though there are models which try to explain this, none of them can account for the initial impulse that gave rise to this spin. In this paper we present that a cosmological model that contains a term involving the primordial spin of the universe can explain how these objects acquired the property of spin. This model also gives a natural explanation for the quadratic scaling of angular momentum with mass. Again, from this model, the background torsion due to a universal spin density not only give rise to angular momenta for all structures but also provide a background centrifugal term acting as a repulsive gravity accelerating the universe, with spin density acting as effective cosmological constant.
