Alternative theories of the Big Bang and the Creation of the Universe !

This unknown energy, lets say Divine energy for religious people like myself, first created neutrons, protons, and electrons, and then to form the first helium atom and hydrogen in the universe from which to create other particles from other elements and that extends, until the matter freezes and disappears, leaving nothing behind, being just an accident or unintentional action, as I wrote in an older theory five years ago, in which I say that genesis of life can be an unwanted, unintended consequence in the universe read more here 

No one knows exactly how it formed, but we know for sure from information taken by the Hubble Telescope - The observable universe is spherical, has a diameter of 93 billion light-years with 2 trillion galaxies and an age of 13 billion light-years (this means as at 1 billion years it increases by 10 billion light-years). Scientists have also created a certain theoretical map of the universe we have been various scientific theories alternative to creationist theory -Big Bang, as I wrote another theory, appeared from nothing or eternal divine power.

Chandra X-Ray Observatory Recently discovered new SPT0346-52. Galaxy is undergoing an extraordinary boom of stellar construction, clues to universe’s evolution and big bang

The distorted galaxy in the simulation results from a collision between two galaxies, followed by them merging. Astronomers think such a merger could be the reason why SPT0346-52 is having such a boom of stellar construction. Once the two galaxies collide, gas near the center of the merged galaxy (shown as the bright region in the center of the simulation) is compressed, producing a burst of new stars. The composite inset shows X-ray data from Chandra (blue), short wavelength infrared data from Hubble (green), infrared light from Spitzer (red) at longer wavelengths, and infrared data from ALMA (magenta) at even longer wavelengths. (The light from SPT0346-52 is distorted and magnified by the gravity of an intervening galaxy, producing three elongated images in the ALMA data located near the center of the image. SPT0346-52 is not visible in the Hubble or Spitzer data, but the intervening galaxy causing the gravitational lensing is detected.) There is no blue at the center of the image, showing that Chandra did not detect any X-rays that could have signaled the presence of a growing black hole. Credit: Image courtesy of CXC Press Office.

A recently discovered galaxy is undergoing an extraordinary boom of stellar construction, revealed by a group of astronomers led by University of Florida graduate student Jingzhe Ma using NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory.

The galaxy known as SPT 0346‐52 is 12.7 billion light years from Earth, seen at a critical stage in the evolution of galaxies about a billion years after the Big Bang.

Chandra Overview NASA

Astronomers first discovered SPT 0346‐52 with the National Science Foundation's South Pole Telescope, then observed it with space and ground-based telescopes. Data from the NSF/ESO Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array in Chile revealed extremely bright infrared emission, suggesting that the galaxy is undergoing a tremendous burst of star birth.

However, an alternative explanation remained: Was much of the infrared emission instead caused by a rapidly growing supermassive black hole at the galaxy's center? Gas falling towards the black hole would become much hotter and brighter, causing surrounding dust and gas to glow in infrared light. To explore this possibility, researchers used NASA's Chandra X‐ray Observatory and CSIRO's Australia Telescope Compact Array, a radio telescope.

No X‐rays or radio waves were detected, so astronomers were able to rule out a black hole being responsible for most of the bright infrared light.

"We now know that this galaxy doesn't have a gorging black hole, but instead is shining brightly with the light from newborn stars," Ma said. "This gives us information about how galaxies and the stars within them evolve during some of the earliest times in the universe."

Stars are forming at a rate of about 4,500 times the mass of the Sun every year in SPT0346-52, one of the highest rates seen in a galaxy. This is in contrast to a galaxy like the Milky Way that only forms about one solar mass of new stars per year.

"Astronomers call galaxies with lots of star formation 'starburst' galaxies," said UF astronomy professor Anthony Gonzalez, who co-authored the study. "That term doesn't seem to do this galaxy justice, so we are calling it a 'hyper-starburst' galaxy."

The high rate of star formation implies that a large reservoir of cool gas in the galaxy is being converted into stars with unusually high efficiency.

Astronomers hope that by studying more galaxies like SPT0346‐52 they will learn more about the formation and growth of massive galaxies and the supermassive black holes at their centers.

"For decades, astronomers have known that supermassive black holes and the stars in their host galaxies grow together," said co-author Joaquin Vieira of the University of Illinois at Urbana‐Champaign. "Exactly why they do this is still a mystery. SPT0346-52 is interesting because we have observed an incredible burst of stars forming, and yet found no evidence for a growing supermassive black hole. We would really like to study this galaxy in greater detail and understand what triggered the star formation and how that affects the growth of the black hole."

SPT0346‐52 is part of a population of strong gravitationally-lensed galaxies discovered with the SPT. It appears about six times brighter than it would without gravitational lensing, which enables astronomers to see more details than would otherwise be possible.

Young galaxies "born" at least 50 stars annually: These "incubators" within young galaxies annually produce more stars than was originally estimated

Young galaxies in the universe appear to be very fertile and, with an annual average of 50 new stars on the size of the sun.

Updated today 21/05/2020

The recent discovery shows as "incubators" within young galaxies annually produce more stars than was originally estimated. Astronomers have "traveled" back 12.5 billion years to study one of the most remote galaxies known MS1358arc known as infant Galaxies. Light began its journey in the universe just one billion years after the creation of the cosmos, from the Big Bang.

The study of galaxy formation and evolution is concerned with the processes that formed a heterogeneous universe from a homogeneous beginning, the formation of the first galaxies, the way galaxies change over time, and the processes that have generated the variety of structures observed in nearby galaxies.

Galaxy formation is hypothesized to occur, from structure formation theories, as a result of tiny quantum fluctuations in the aftermath of the Big Bang. 

The simplest model for this that is in general agreement with observed phenomena is the Λ-Cold Dark Matter cosmology; that is to say that clustering and merging is how galaxies gain in mass, and can also determine their shape and structure.

Commonly observed properties of galaxies


Because of the inability to conduct experiments in outer space, the only way to “test” theories and models of galaxy evolution is to compare them with observations. Explanations for how galaxies formed and evolved must be able to predict the observed properties and types of galaxies.

Edwin Hubble created the first galaxy classification scheme known as the Hubble tuning-fork diagram. It partitioned galaxies into ellipticals, normal spirals, barred spirals (such as the Milky Way), and irregulars. These galaxy types exhibit the following properties which can be explained by current galaxy evolution theories:

Many of the properties of galaxies (including the galaxy color–magnitude diagram) indicate that there are fundamentally two types of galaxies. These groups divide into blue star-forming galaxies that are more like spiral types, and red non-star forming galaxies that are more like elliptical galaxies.

Spiral galaxies are quite thin, dense, and rotate relatively fast, while the stars in elliptical galaxies have randomly-oriented orbits.
The majority of mass in galaxies is made up of dark matter, a substance which is not directly observable, and might not interact through any means except gravity.

The majority of giant galaxies contain a supermassive black hole in their centers, ranging in mass from millions to billions of times the mass of our Sun. The black hole mass is tied to the host galaxy bulge or spheroid mass.

Metallicity has a positive correlation with the absolute magnitude (luminosity) of a galaxy.


Hubble thought incorrectly that the tuning fork diagram described an evolutionary sequence for galaxies, from elliptical galaxies through lenticulars to spiral galaxies. However, astronomers now believe that disk galaxies likely formed first, then evolved into elliptical galaxies through galaxy mergers.

So-called "gravitational lenses" were used to enlarge the galaxy using light how "fits" on a nearby star cluster. With this technique, the researchers could observe rapid ascent generated by the formation of new stars. Thus, they could conclude that new stars are created in the galaxy at a speed 100 times higher than the average forecast initially.

With a diameter of 6000 light-years, "collection" of stars will most likely evolve into a new spiral galaxy similar to the Milky Way.

Galaxy mergers and the formation of elliptical galaxies 

Elliptical galaxies (such as IC 1101) are among some of the largest known thus far. Their stars are on orbits that are randomly oriented within the galaxy (i.e. they are not rotating like disk galaxies). A distinguishing feature of elliptical galaxies is that the velocity of the stars does not necessarily contribute to flattening of the galaxy, such as in spiral galaxies. Elliptical galaxies have supermassive black holes at their center, and the mass of these black holes correlates with the galaxy’s mass.

NGC 4676 (Mice Galaxies) is an example of a present merger. photo: wikipedia.org

Elliptical galaxies have two main stages of evolution. The first is due to the supermassive black hole increasing in size from accreting cooling gas. The second stage is marked by the black hole stabilizing by suppressing gas cooling, thus leaving the elliptical galaxy in a stable state.The mass of the black hole is also correlated to a property called sigma which is the dispersion of the velocities of stars in the elliptical galaxies. 

This relationship, known as the M-sigma relation, was discovered in 2000. Elliptical galaxies do not have disks around them, although some bulges of disk galaxies look similar to elliptical galaxies. It is more likely to find elliptical galaxies in more crowded regions of the universe (such as galaxy clusters).

Astronomers now see elliptical galaxies as some of the most evolved systems in the universe. It is widely accepted that the main driving force for the evolution of elliptical galaxies is mergers of smaller galaxies. Many galaxies in the universe are gravitationally bound to other galaxies, which means that they will never escape the pull of the other galaxy.

If the galaxies are of similar size, the resultant galaxy will appear similar to neither of the two galaxies merging,but will instead be an elliptical galaxy. There are many types of galaxy mergers, which do not necessarily result in elliptical galaxies, but result in a change in the structure of the mergers. For example, a minor merger event is thought to be occurring between the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds.

LARGEST MAP EVER MADE WILL UNLOCK THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE 1.2 MILLION GALAXIES

Updated 02/05/2020

"This is one slice through the map of the large-scale structure of the Universe from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and its Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey. Each dot in this picture indicates the position of a galaxy 6 billion years into the past. The image covers about 1/20th of the sky, a slice of the Universe 6 billion light-years wide, 4.5 billion light-years high, and 500 million light-years thick. Color indicates distance from Earth, ranging from yellow on the near side of the slice to purple on the far side.

Galaxies are highly clustered, revealing superclusters and voids whose presence is seeded in the first fraction of a second after the Big Bang. This image contains 48,741 galaxies, about 3% of the full survey dataset. Grey patches are small regions without survey data."

What you're looking at is a slice of the entire universe, a web of galaxies billions of light years away. You're also looking into the past, since the further into the distance you look, the longer it took that light to reach your eyes. It all seems a lot smaller until you realize that each of those dots is hundreds of thousands of light years across.

A collaboration of hundreds of scientists released the "largest-ever, three-dimensional map of distant galaxies" with over 1.2 million spots as a part of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) program using a telescope in New Mexico, according to a press release from Brookhaven National Lab. The map isn't for wanderers; scientists are trying to understand some of the universe's unexplained properties, like what dark matter and dark energy are. Understanding those things requires a three-dimensional map bigger and looking further out than any map scientists have made prior.

"The problem was, if you take data on the brightest galaxies in the sky, they happen to be nearby galaxies," BOSS' principal investigator David Schlegel from Lawrence Berkeley National Lab told Popular Science.

"For a cosmologist, that’s just a map of the backyard. I don’t want a map of the backyard. I want a map of the universe."

Up until fifty or so years ago, scientists more or less understood the universe, said Schlegel. But the discovery of dark matter and dark energy showed we don't really understand most of it, since they make up around 95 percent of the stuff in the universe. Yeah, we don't understand 95 percent of the stuff in the universe.

That's not to say we can't measure or detect dark matter and dark energy, though. If you look at the map, you'll see a web of galaxies and places where dots clump. Dark matter still feels gravity's pull, so galaxies align themselves along the webs and clumps of dark matter. We can detect dark energy too. When we look into space, really distant things we'd expect to look white actually look red; they've been redshifted. That's because their light rays have stretched out, because the space itself the light travels through expands, like a stretched-out tattoo on someone who's gaining a lot of weight.

By measuring really far away things, we found out that the universe wasn't just expanding, but the rate it expanded was actually speeding up. That discovery won a team of scientists the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics.

"I don’t want a map of the backyard. I want a map of the universe."

In one theory of the universe, there's a single number called the "cosmological constant" that says dark energy is a uniform thing permeating the universe and making it expand. Some physicists were hoping that a larger map would show the cosmological constant's value changing in different places, rather than just being a single number everywhere, but the single number stuck throughout the swath of the universe covered by BOSS' results. Schlegel thought theoretical physicists might be a little pigeonholed by the results, since they can do more with varying numbers than a single constant.

Mark Wise, theoretical physicist at California Institute of Technology, hadn't reviewed the BOSS results yet but agreed with Schlegel. "It would be more exciting if it was something else," he told Popular Science.

Map of Universe

The BOSS experiment is about more than just dark energy, though, pointed out Anže Slosar, Brookhaven National Lab and BOSS cosmologist who leads his "futile existence as a scientist and a bureaucrat" (much as a cosmologist would), according to his website. The experiment will also help pinpoint the mass of the neutrino particle. Soon, other experiments like the larger Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) on a telescope at Kitt Peak in Arizona will pick up where the BOSS experiment leaves off. But Slosar was most excited about how intertwined our physical experiences on Earth are with the rest of the universe.

"The fact that it’s the same fundamental laws that guide GPS satellites all the way down to one second after the big bang is pretty mindblowing," he said.

A new theory on the Creation of the Universe, effects of quantum mechanics disprove the Big Bang

An international team of researchers has backed up the growing hypothesis that the Big Bang was actually a 'Big Bounce', meaning that the Universe didn’t pop into existence. Instead, it simply started expanding again after contracting fully.

If correct, the team’s findings might explain how the Universe transitioned from contraction to expansion, a debate that has been raging over the Big Bounce hypothesis since it was first introduced nearly 100 years ago.

Before we get into the new findings, let's take a quick overview of what the Big Bounce is. Put simply, it’s a hypothesis that was created to explain how the Universe formed.

Unlike the Big Bang model, though, which states that our Universe was born out of nothing but a gigantic explosion from an infinitely dense point, the Big Bounce proposes that the Universe is constantly expanding and contracting.

This means that the Universe operates sort of like a balloon, where it expands from a single point, grows and grows until it reaches some maximum distance, and then contracts back to the original point, starting the whole process over again.

Until now, one of the biggest road blocks to this hypothetical model was how the Universe would transition from contraction to expansion when it is fully ‘deflated’. The new study hopes to solve that using the properties of quantum mechanics.

According to the team – consisting of physicists from the UK and Canada – when the Universe is at its smallest point, it is ruled by quantum mechanics instead of the normal physics of the everyday world around us.

At this extremely small scale, the Universe would be saved from destruction because the effects of quantum mechanics would, in essence, keep everything together

"Quantum mechanics saves us when things break down," explains team member Steffen Gielen, from Imperial College London.

"It saves electrons from falling in and destroying atoms, so maybe it could also save the early Universe from such violent beginnings and endings as the Big Bang and Big Crunch." (Spoiler: The Big Curnch is how scientists predict our Universe might end, and it ain't pretty.

Quantum Mechanics: Concepts and Applications, 2nd Edition

To come to that conclusion, the team built a computer model that simulates how the Universe might have evolved over time.

When all was said and done, they found that using quantum mechanics, the Universe could have expanded from a single point even with the minimal amount of ingredients – radiation and a little matter – that were present at the time.

"The big surprise in our work is that we could describe the earliest moments of the hot Big Bang quantum mechanically, under very reasonable and minimal assumptions about the matter present in the Universe," said team member Neil Turk, from the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Canada. "Under these assumptions, the Big Bang was a 'bounce', in which contraction reversed to expansion."

While the current model explains how the Universe might have transitioned between expansion and contraction, the team is now looking to see if it can eventually produce the objects inside the Universe, such as galaxies and other celestial structures.

This isn’t the first time a team of scientists have claimed that the Big Bang as we know it might have never happened.

Back in February, a team of researchers from Egypt created a model that stated that the Universe has no beginning or end. Instead, using quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of general relativity, they suggested that the Universe has simply been going forever.

Hopefully, as computer models continue to get more powerful with each passing day, we will eventually have a better, more complete understanding of how our Universe formed - and one day might all disappear.
