title: On the possibility of coherently stimulated recombination and cosmological structure generation: cosmological consequences.
abstract: Given a specific physical mechanism for instabilities during cosmological recombination discussed in an earlier paper, we examine the nonlinear growth of density structures to form fractal-like structural patterns out to the horizon scale at that epoch (approximately 200 Mpc today). A model for such fractal patterns is presented. Such effects could explain observed large-scale structure patterns and the formation of objects at high z, while keeping microwave background anisotropies at the observed minimal levels. We also discuss possible microwave background implications of such a transition and note a potentially observable spectral signature at lambda approximately 0.18 mm as well as a weak line near the peak in the microwave background.
