The cosmological constant is presumably an enigmatic form of matter or energy that acts in opposition to gravity and is considered by many physicists to be equivalent to dark energy. Nobody really knows what the cosmological constant is exactly, but it is required in cosmological equations in order to reconcile theory with our observations of the universe. 3, record 1, English, - cosmological%20constant

Pour neutraliser le mouvement d’ensemble des galaxies que ses propres équations semblaient imposer [Einstein] introduisait dans l'équation de mouvement de la matière une «constante cosmologique» et lui assignait la valeur numérique requise pour stopper le mouvement radial des galaxies. 3, record 1, French, - constante%20cosmologique

écoulement radial : Dans ce type d’écoulement, le mobile confère au liquide un mouvement radial vers la paroi. L'écoulement dans le plan du mobile est souvent assimilé à un jet fluide. Ce jet se scinde ensuite en deux, le liquide longe la paroi de la cuve avant de revenir vers l'axe de rotation. Il y a dans un plan radial un mouvement de rotation autour d’une zone relativement statique appelée «œil». 1, record 2, French, - %26oelig%3Bil
