Before 'Big bang'

Dark circles are unusually low temperature cosmic regions. Could it be a trace of the universe before the big bang?

Roger Penrose and Vahe Gurzadyan sought to prove a cosmic self-destructive and regenerating universe, by observing cosmic microwave background radiation.

While Stephen Hawking launched ' Grand Design ', The Grand Design , with M theory that our universe is not unique, that there are universes that exist in parallel. Another famous British physicist is also startled by the theory of reincarnation.

Penrose , who was knighted in 1994 with contributions to science, published the Cycles of Time in September, in which he assumed each had a universe before the Big bang and there will be another universe born after the current one ends. In other words the universe is endless in terms of time.

In the latest study that has not yet been printed, but published on the website Arxiv , Penrose and Armenian colleagues think they found traces of the ancient universe in background radiation, repeating in a cyclical manner. period These are the 'rings' surrounding galactic clusters, with unusually low variables in background radiation.

Penrose and colleagues studied 11,000 locations, focusing on the relics of the past, where ancient galaxies collided with each other, giant black holes merged, to eventually lock in 12 candidates. .

The reason they just posted on the website and not printed is waiting for the reaction of colleagues. And indeed soon after that in early December there were three counterintuitive analyzes: one from the Canadian Institute of Astrophysics, Toronto, one from the University of British Columbia, Vancouver and one from the University of Oslo, Norway. They all thought that what Penrose found was just (re) proving that the background radiation has a certain structure.

Penrose's proposal caused such a reaction because it was in conflict with cosmic expansion theory. This theory suggests that the universe started from a single point and expanded forever.

Penrose went on to argue online, that his circles had a characteristic of being one-sided rather than arbitrarily scattered. Expansion theory cannot explain this.

Penrose had no religion and considered himself atheist, but in the Hawking film The Brief History of Time, he once said: ' I think the universe has a purpose, it does not exist by chance . much. who thought that the universe existed for him and the man suddenly appeared in the midst of chaos. There is no benefit when you think about the universe in such a way, there must be something deeper about it . '

Having split a prestigious award with Hawking in 1988, the Wolf Association's physics prize, this time Penrose bisected the ax of public opinion . But he didn't have an ally.

Shaun Cole of Durham University's cosmic computer team said the study was impressive. He told the BBC: ' It is a revolutionary theory and seems to be based. In the standard big explosion model there is no samsara; Only start, no end. The question of philosophy posed was something before the big explosion and they removed that question by answering "there is no dry monkey", because they kept it repeating and repeating .

Both Penrose and Cole argued that the idea should be verified with further analysis, and particularly expect the data from the Planck telescope, designed to study microwave background radiation with precision. never happend.

Let's wait to see if Penrose's 'infinite universe ' theory of the universe will stand or not.
