Nonstandard cosmologies indicate variation of the baryon to photon ratio in different regions. One proposal is a result of large-scale inhomogeneities in cosmic density, different from homogeneity defined in the [[cosmological principle]]. However, this possibility requires a large amount of observations to test it.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Holder|first=Gilbert P.|last2=Nollett|first2=Kenneth M.|last3=van Engelen|first3=Alexander|date=June 2010|title=On Possible Variation in the Cosmological Baryon Fraction|url=https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2010ApJ...716..907H/abstract|journal=Astrophysical Journal|language=en|volume=716|issue=2|pages=907–913|doi=10.1088/0004-637X/716/2/907|issn=0004-637X|doi-access=free}}</ref>
