  1. "Yes, that's radiation. In fact the funny thing, and an amusing numerology, is that if you take a gaussian distribution, a bell curve, then you have something called sigma, the width of the Gaussian. If you take one sigma as dark energy and two sigma as dark matter and anything beyond as ordinary matter, you are getting pretty close to what's being observed. We have around $68\%$ covered by the first sigma, $96\%$ gets you two sigma, but of course the difference is something like $28\%$, and then there are four percent left for the rest. The fit that people make is something like $73\%$ dark energy, $23\%$ dark matter and then four percent of the ordinary matter. This means that we are in the tail of the distribution. The dark stuff is the normal stuff."

    この部分だけみると、トンデモ理論なのであるが、全体の中でみると、自然に見えますねえ。揺らぎ(fluctuation)を持ち出しているところ、熱力学を入れるということは、統計力学的に考えるということとなり、ここは自然な思考方法となるのではないだろうか。
