Have astronomers disproved the Big Bang?

  • The theory of the Big Bang describes the biggest event of all time- the origin of the universe itself. Scientists are confident that this theory accurately describes the life story of the universe over its 14 billion year history. However scientists like to check and recheck their work and they have found a discrepancy in two measurements of how fast the universe is expanding. This discrepancy could mean the need to add another twist in the story, or it could disappear with more study. In this video, Fermilab’s Dr. Don Lincoln helps us sort it all out.

      Try this idea. The initial singularity did not have infinite density. It was dimensionless, timeless, without mass or matter and without gravity. It was, NOTHING. The only thing required to start things off was the beginning of time. The beginning of the oscillating field of energy we experience as time. With this sudden field of time, there was a sudden inflation of space, since if you increase the time rate then space expands (or inflates). Both Special and General Relativity show that if you reduce the time rate then space "shrinks". In the limit, when time stops, space has shrunk to zero volume. It is logical therefore to conclude that increasing the time rate increases the "size" of space. Matter (particles) did not form until after (or during) the initial inflation. After all, inflation would have carried on without gravity to halt it and the formation of fundamental matter particles did just that. We must also conclude (if this idea is correct) that all particles, all matter, and therefore gravity emerged from the field of energy we experience as time. Everything is made of energy. Time is energy. Everything is made of time. Why do you think time dilates in the presence of energy? Because matter particles use some of it for their internal kinetic energy That's all particles are - trapped energy (from the field of time). Why do you think time slows down for increasing kinetic energy? Because the energy is being used (by the traveller) from the field, for his kinetic energy. When he uses all the energy of the field at the same rate it is being produced, then time stops and you cannot go any faster. You are using every Planck time for progression through space so none are left to move you through time.

      No ... it very likely just means the the current model being used is in some aspects just too simplistic and needs to be enhanced. If you adapt the model the predictions of the theory that's based upon it will change. So you try to enhance the model and see if the resulting predictions better fit the observation. As long as you don't actively modify the model to fit the observation, that's a perfectly valid approach.
      It's far too early and the evidence far, far too weak, to immediately question the whole theory itself. That's only the case if the issue can't be solved in the long run or gets even worse.

As such it's kind of a little closer to the truth of what we've observed: Because we can't directly measure the distance to these objects: rather we can measure observable parallax effects as we orbit the sun, and then use that to calculate the distance.
      Both units are very geocentric in nature, one based on the orbital radius of the Earth, one based on the orbital period of the Earth - but it is the former quantity, the orbital radius of the Earth, which is meaningful to the measurement, and if we had somehow gotten that quantity wrong, our idea of how far a parsec is (expressed in terms of other units) would change, but an object measured at 19 parsecs away would still be 19 parsecs away.

    Dark energy...1. place a marble on a merry go round, rotate the MgR at a given rate and the marble will accelerate until it falls off the edge. Simple physics. A vehicle will do the same exact thing to the limit of it mechanical ability. Remove friction and theoretically it should continue to accelerate indefinitely. Ramjets are designed around this principle and will continue to accelerate if uncontrolled until the device reaches an aerodynamic limit. 2. At USAF Undergraduate Flight School instructors use a gimbled chair in order to introduce baby aviators to the problem of spatial disorientation (I was a navigator starting in the mid 70s). You would sit in the chair, close your eyes and the instrutor would rotate the chair. You immediately felt the torque because of the cilia in the inner ear. We were instructed to raise a hand when we felt we had stopped rotating after which we opened our eyes to discover we were still rotating! It was an eerie sensation brought about by the lack of a point of reference while our eyes were closed. 3. Just about everything has angular momentum from the smallest atomic particles to wind and water and many other things. Soooooo, why not the universe? We would not be able to detect that angular momentum because there is no outside reference. I've seen the balloon analogy to describe inflation. Perhaps the balloon is rotating? We could never know. AS a result, angular momentum would look to us like a force acting upon galaxies which would, in turn, continue to accelerate because there is nothing to hinder their expansion. Just collating some diverse thoughts and experiences. Love your discussions. I can only image what it must have been like to sit in on one of Feynman's lectures!

  • @asiseeit...6915

    Dear Dr. Lincoln. Thank you for very inspiring teachings! - you inspire your students to think and ask questions by presenting both the known and unknowns with a teaser that even some of the known concepts may need review. This video has prompted me to ask:
    What if there was no dark energy or gravity prior to the thing going bang?
    What if the repulsion gravity in dark energy is also just gravity, or at least the same mechanism?
    Perhaps, in the initial expansion, DE and G would be indistinguishable. Matter would tend to coalesce, ie. pushed into larger objects under the repulsion-based gravity, while still expanding outward.
    What if the underlying repulsion-based mechanism is simply electrons - many, many electrons that would occupy the vacuum space within the newly formed atoms (above and beyond the required number of bound electrons) and within the boundaries of the newly formed and expanding universe? Beyond the boundaries being true nothingness..
    As you pointed out in the video, this initial expansion rate would, in time, fizzle out. What if the second (and current) expansion phase is due to electrons being ejected from the stars (follow the energy - Occam's razor) as they started to come on line? Does this fit into the expansion timeline? Wouldn't this star-formed DE explain the continued acceleration expansion of the universe, the bulging central star clusters in galaxies, and to bring it all closer to home, the increase in the astronomical unit?
    'Electrons everywhere' may sound absurd - and, of course, easy to detect. Right? What if we are only able to detect electrons that are forced out of a homogeneous balance within the vacuum space? An electron beam formed, accelerated, and detected only when the local concentration is changed..
    What if detection evidence exists all around us and is taken for granted? The formation of static electricity (referring to Ben Franklin's single electric fluid model and not the current electron-proton model), piezo electric accelerometers that respond to inertial forces by directly producing electrons (charge), and of course, the double slit experiment as viewed from Dr. Bohm's deterministic perspective.
    Even though the electrons occupy all the vacuum space homogeneously, the interaction details with matter would have to be totally a quantum interaction. The exclusion zone (in the vacuum space within matter, as well as the electrons that may occupy that vacuum) is the nucleons. The number of nucleons in a hunk of matter holds the 'information' for the mass of that object, and any resulting gravitational or inertial forces. What if constant velocity interactions with matter cause electrons to 'pop out of existence' on the leading face of the object, and 're-appear' in the wake of the object. Could quantum superposition such as this explain the reason such interactions are not ordinarily detectable? Would just such an interaction explain all the fun stuff special relativity expresses? When the rate of change of velocity is altered, would it be reasonable to say that some electrons are then forced to pass through the object? This interaction thus producing a 'drag' force that we call an inertial force? (and also why the piezo accel works)
    And you also mentioned the failure of what works on the universe scale tends to fail on the atomic scale. What if the nuclear forces are also not forces from within, but the same repulsion-based-push as gravity?
    I hope that I have not exceeded my limit on how much can be posted here - certainly, I have presented too many questions..

    I wonder if there is a stage 3 that may have the dark energy contract and the cyclic cosmos theory would be a credible theory for the evolution of the universe.

    Awesome explanation and wonderful videos- I watch them all. A year ago, I read this article about possible attractive forces beyond our current known spatial dimension and we are, for lack of a better term, “surfing” on these forces. Perhaps that is the missing component for determining a more accurate and agreeable expansion rate. Also, if the forces are not homogeneous, that would also explain discrepancies. I believe this may be the journal I was referring to: journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.121.261301
    I find these topics fascinating- and the animation you used to show the galaxies drifting away or perhaps towards something really suggests there is so much more than we have been able to observe.

    The most disappointing thing about astrophysics today is that misinformation is almost as common as in politics. "Nobody seriously questions that the universe began 14 billion years ago and has been expanding since" is simply not true. Edwin Hubble insisted to the end of his life that the cause of galactic redshifts had not been determined. Carl Sagan wrote that if galaxies turned out to have large black holes at the center of them, it would be necessary to determine how much of the redshift is caused by the black holes. In 2014 New Scientist magazine published a letter from 33 scientists disputing the Big Bang, and complaining of the suppression of dissent on the topic. How could Don Lincoln not know this?

    What about adding a measurement from slightly later than 4000ABB (After Big Bang) to see if it agrees with the measurement from 4000ABB or perhaps the rate of the expansion does not only depends on distance but also on time? I.e. the acceleration is not constant as a function of time, thus the two current measurements , although different, are correct.
    Another solution might be that the acceleration function is not the same in each direction due to e.g. varying dark energy clusters. Although it might oppose to the uniformity of space.

    • @Pooreyorick
      @Pooreyorick Před 4 lety +2

      I would suggest that one can disprove *only* things that have never been proven. For example, some people claim that the Earth is a disc and not a sphere. They have never properly proven it to be a disc, yet it seems there are many ways of disproving their claim. Conversely, if I actually *prove* the Earth to be a sphere, no one can disprove it - they would be wrong.

    • @markburch6253

      David is exactly correct. You can only disprove a theory that hasn't been proven. Once it's proven you can only show that the experiment used to prove it was faulty and in reality it was never proven.

    Some thoughts that come to mind, What is CMB reflecting off of? If I shined a flashlight into outerspace, I would never see it again unless it reflected off of something. Also isn't it odd that inflation occurs faster than the speed of light? I could have swore some smart guy said that's impossible. And the whole rewinding the universe where all the matter meets at one point (which we conveniently have no idea where that is) isn't that like taking a snapshot of the tide going out and saying the ocean was empty and all of the water came from LA?

    I don't know enough about the sciences to really chime in, but many have claimed they can debunk the big bang, often with seemingly good explanations, I think it goes without saying, we would love to see someone such as yourself examine and address these claims. Acadamia after all, tends to be reluctant to address anything that doesn't agree with the mainstream narrative.

    • @tadferd4340

      Because academia has no need to address poorly or unsupported claims. They are busy doing actual work. When those who disagree submit papers for peer review with actual supporting evidence, then academia will give a shit. That's how science works. Put up or shut up.

    The problem with predictive models is that you have to take all of the variables into account.

By the way blue and violet light ARE NEVER HAVIER THAN WHITE LIGHT as Einstains supposes.
