Abstract
We study geodesics in Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) cosmological models and give the full set of solutions. For azimuthal geodesics, in a closed universe, we give the angular distance traveled by a test particle moving along such a geodesic during one cycle of expansion and recollapse of the universe. We extend previous results regarding the path followed by light rays to the two-fluid case, also including a cosmological constant, as well as to massive test particles. Our work contains various new results and explicit formulas, often using special functions which naturally appear in this setting.
