Abstract

Description

A systematic rotation of the plane of polarization of electromagnetic radiation propagating over cosmological distances has been claimed to be detected by Nodland and Ralston.Taking the finite rotating universe of Oszvath and Schücking as a toy model for the actual universe,we calculate the rotation of the plane of polarization of electromagnetic waves in this universe.It turns out that the observed data are consistent with the Oszvath-Schücking parameter $k=0.39$.
