Results of comprehensive observational tests of the cosmological theory proposed by Segal in 1972 are summarized in this and succeeding notes. Within a framework of natural and general causality and symmetry considerations, the theory is mathematically essentially unique. It implies definite relations between directly observed quantities (redshift, apparent magnitude and diameter, number counts, and the like) which are entirely free of adjustable parameters, such as the q(0) and Lambda of general relativistic cosmologies. Rigorous statistical analysis of large ( greater, similar100) or systematically defined samples of galaxies or quasars accepts these relations at substantial probability levels. Note I establishes uniform statistical procedures and compares the redshift-magnitude relations of major samples with the theoretical relations of the present and expansion theories.
1972年西格尔提出的宇宙学理论的综合观测测试结果在本笔记及后续笔记中进行了总结。在自然因果关系和对称性考虑的框架内,该理论在数学上本质上是唯一的。它暗示了直接观测到的量(红移、视星等和直径、数量计数等)之间明确的关系,这些关系完全没有可调参数,如广义相对论宇宙学中的q(0)和Λ。对大量(大于或近似于100)或系统定义的星系或类星体样本进行的严格统计分析在相当高的概率水平上接受了这些关系。笔记I建立了统一的统计程序,并将主要样本的红移-星等关系与当前理论和膨胀理论的理论关系进行了比较。
