How to pronounce “cosmological constant” in English

The cosmological constant can be thought of as a constant of integration.

It was the cosmological constant that showed a constant acceleration term.

So he developed what he called the cosmological constant.

I don't think you need your cosmological constant.

There is what's called Einstein's cosmological constant, which now is just one subset of a more general class of theories called dark energy theories,

This is what he called a cosmological constant.

This is what he called a cosmological constant.

If dark energy is not a cosmological constant, if it's this phantom dark energy, then the amount of dark energy is going to get higher over time.

Lambda, being Einstein's cosmological constant, essentially means the universe is accelerating, expanding.

So the whole physical and philosophical motivation for this cosmological constant, this ugly fudge factor, disappeared.

And again, that's the cosmological constant.

And so the paper goes on "we report measurement of the mass density and cosmological constant density omega and lambda of the universe, based on the analysis

In 2016, he and his team shared the Buchalter Cosmology prize for their work on the cosmological constant.

So not to get too technical, but he developed this idea of the cosmological constant, which he never liked as a concept.

It might be a property of space itself, the cosmological constant, or it could be some new kind of energy field.

It induces this kind of stretching of space, it's called the cosmological constant, right?

That's one possibility for dark energy, that it's just a cosmological constant, it's just part of how the universe works, that it has this expansiveness built into it.

And one of the leading ideas for what dark energy is is actually an old idea from Albert Einstein which is called the cosmological constant.

If all we have in the universe is matter with gravity and dark energy, this cosmological constant, then we know how that acts.

The current idea is that the dark energy is something that Einstein introduced in his equations, called the cosmological constant, which he introduced for the wrong reasons.

And Einstein, said, oh, my God, took out the cosmological constant, and said this is the biggest blunder in my life.

Or, if the universe started in an expanding state, then you could have a negative cosmological constant.

And so, the expansion is speeding up because now there's so much empty space that the cosmological constant is kind of taking over.
