Total comoving visibility radius
ID: total-comoving-visibility-radius
In a spatially flat FLRW metric, the supremum of the comoving radial distance from which a signal emitted at the initial time can eventually reach a fixed comoving observer is the total conformal time interval. At an intermediate time , this equals its comoving particle horizon plus the comoving radius of its cosmological event horizon, when both integrals converge. This is a visibility bound for emission arbitrarily close to the initial boundary; it does not assert that a transparent universe or a source existed there.
