Sentences with phrase «baby universe»

My response is that the notion of multiple universes does not change my basic argument because you just apply it to the initial baby universe.

Lee Smolin, professor of physics at the Center for Gravitational Physics and Geometry at the Pennsylvania State University, is a leading proponent of this idea, which also takes on board notions about baby universes developed by Andrei Linde of the Lebedev Physics Institute in Moscow and Stephen Hawking of the University of Cambridge.

«Maybe baby universes can be made; maybe they can not,» Hamilton says.

«If there's anywhere in our universe where baby universes are being created, it's likely happening inside black holes,» Hamilton says.

Yet another says our universe was originally ripped from a larger entity, and that in turn countless baby universes will be born from the wreckage of ours.

In turn, the torsion mechanism suggests an astonishing scenario: every black hole would produce a new, baby universe inside.

These bubbles are «baby universes,» and the holes are wormholes connecting our universe with another parallel universe.

If both Kerr rings and negative - energy wormholes prove unreliable, Guth's inflation theory points the way to another, more difficult escape strategy: creating a baby universe.

Each of the theory's solutions represents an entire universe, so to test the theory fully, one would have to create a baby universe in a laboratory.

In principle, baby universes are born when a certain region of space - time becomes unstable and enters a state called the false vacuum.

Andrei Linde of Stanford University has taken this idea a step further and proposed that the process of inflation may not have been a singular event — that «parent universes» may bud «baby universes» in a continuous, never - ending cycle.

In other words, the net total matter required to create a baby universe might equal only a few ounces.

Stephen Hawking's new collection of essays, Black Holes and Baby Universes, errs in the opposite direction: a good deal of it seems extremely patronising.

Before then the baby universe was too hot and dense for light to travel far without bumping into matter.
