That seems a naked assault on the laws of thermodynamics. Cosmic inflation solves these problems at a stroke. In its earliest instants, the universe expanded faster than light (light’s speed ...

Physicist Alan Guth, the father of cosmic inflation theory ... Are there any drawbacks to living in a multiverse? The problem with having an infinite multiverse is that if you ask a simple ...

The research on Quantum Origins of Cosmic Structure was done ... As a "science of origins", evolutionary cosmology based on embryonic inflation invites and enables a unified approach to a number of ...

In Chapter 12, we compare aspects of "cosmic genetics" inherent in the embryonic inflation model ... As a "science of origins", evolutionary cosmology based on embryonic inflation invites and enables ...

Inflation has persisted as a strong hypothesis of the early universe because it solves many problems at once ... galaxies and the cosmic web. But mysteries remain. We do not know the identity ...

Some estimates suggest during inflation the universe grew by 10 60 times, and that too within a second. Over billions of years, these stretched ripples grew into clumps of matter, forming the first ...

A new study suggests that the cosmic web could have formed without relying on inflation driven by a scalar field. Instead, it proposes a novel mechanism that suggests that inflation arises from ...

Inflation has persisted as a strong hypothesis of the early universe because it solves many problems at once. For one, it explains why the cosmos appears ... laying down the gravitational seeds that ...
