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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
