We show how within the theoretical framework of a Gamow cosmology with massive neutrinos, the observed correlation functions between galaxies and between clusters of galaxies, naturally lead to a “cellular” structure of the Universe. From the size of “elementary cells” we derive constraints on the value of the masses and chemical potentials of the cosmological “inos”. We outline a procedure to estimate the “effective” average mass density of the Universe. We predict also the angular size of the inhomogeneities to be expected in the cosmological black body radiation as remnants of this cellular structure. A possible relation of our model to a fractal structure is indicated.
