The Big Bang Theory and the Formation of Matter and Anti-Matter, Summaries of Cosmology

The general idea behind the Big Bang Theory, the formation of matter and anti-matter, and the formation of the first atom, hydrogen. It describes how the universe expanded and how stars, galaxies, and planets were formed. It also explains how energy manifested into particles and how quarks converted into energy or matter and anti-matter. informative and provides a basic understanding of the Big Bang Theory and the formation of matter and anti-matter.

The Big Bang Theory
General idea about this theory
Generally we all know that there was a point called singularity
at which all the forces of nature were present in a combined
form. And also all the energy of our universe was stored at
that point. Then a big explosion was happened within that
point and our universe starts to expand. Then stars, galaxies
and planets were formed.
Actually what happened??
The big bang is not an explosion. It was all space stretching everywhere at once. The universe did
not expand into anything but space was just expanding into itself. The universe cannot expand into
anything because it has no borders. The universe is all there is, “No outside the universe"
Formation of matter and also anti-matter
In early stages, the universe has a hot and dense environment in
which energy manifesting starts in particles that existed for a
couple of time.
Then gluons, pairs of quarks were created and which destroyed
one another. After this more gluons were formed and interact
with other short lived quarks and forms new gluons and quarks
pairs again.
Then quarks converted into energy or matter and also anti-matter.
Somewhere around this time matter won over anti-matter. So we
are left with almost matter and no anti-matter at all.
Above cyclic process continued and billions of matter formed until the
temperature of the universe get decreased due to increase in diameter
of the universe. And the process of converting of quarks into energy or
matter suddenly stopped.

The Big Bang Theory

 General idea about this theory

 Generally we all know that there was a point called singularity at which all the forces of nature were present in a combined form. And also all the energy of our universe was stored at that point. Then a big explosion was happened within that point and our universe starts to expand. Then stars, galaxies and planets were formed.

Actually what happened??

The big bang is not an explosion. It was all space stretching everywhere at once. The universe did not expand into anything but space was just expanding into itself. The universe cannot expand into anything because it has no borders. The universe is all there is, “No outside the universe"

 Formation of matter and also anti-matter

 In early stages, the universe has a hot and dense environment in which energy manifesting starts in particles that existed for a couple of time.  Then gluons, pairs of quarks were created and which destroyed one another. After this more gluons were formed and interact with other short lived quarks and forms new gluons and quarks pairs again.  Then quarks converted into energy or matter and also anti-matter. ^ Somewhere^ around^ this^ time^ matter^ won^ over^ anti-matter.^ So^ we are left with almost matter and no anti-matter at all. Above cyclic process continued and billions of matter formed until the temperature of the universe get decreased due to increase in diameter of the universe. And the process of converting of quarks into energy or matter suddenly stopped.

 Formation of first atom, HYDROGEN

 Now quarks combined wi0th each other and formed different types of hadrons like protons and neutrons. Out of these hadrons only few were stable.  Now the environment of universe was getting cold as compare to the beginning. So neutrons converted into protons and created the first atom, hydrogen.  Over the next few minutes, things cooled and settled down very fast. Atoms have hadrons and electrons for making a stable and electrically neutral environment.  Some called this was the dark-age due to absence of stars and the hydrogen gas didn’t allow the visible light to move around.

 Formation of galaxies, stars and planets

 Then hydrogen gas clumped together after millions of years and

gravity put it under great pressure, stars and galaxies began to form.

 Then the radiation of stars and galaxies dissolved the stable

hydrogen gas into plasma and allowed to visible light pass around.

 Finally there was light.

 In this way, planets, satellites and all the interstellar objects

were formed. And it still continued.

 Our universe is expanding in every second of time.
