Accelerated Vacuum Space/ Universe Expansion

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the causes of the accelerated expansion of the universe, exploring theoretical reasons and potential correlations with phenomena such as primordial black holes and dark energy. Participants express interest in speculative ideas and evidence related to these concepts.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Debate/contested
  • Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks theoretical explanations for the universe's expansion and invites others to share evidence and links for comparison with their own speculation.
  • Another participant poses a question regarding the correlation between primordial black hole absorption rates and the current accelerated vacuum expansion rate.
  • A claim is made that the relationship between primordial black holes and the universe's expansion is akin to Dirac's proton-electron relationship concerning the age of the universe.
  • There is a reiteration of the previous claim about Dirac's relationship, followed by a request for clarification on which theoretical framework it pertains to, mentioning figures like Witten and Einstein.
  • One participant suggests that dark energy, which constitutes a significant portion of the universe, could be responsible for the accelerated expansion, although its nature remains uncertain.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express various speculative ideas and questions, indicating that multiple competing views remain without a consensus on the causes of the universe's accelerated expansion.

Contextual Notes

Participants acknowledge the uncertainty surrounding dark energy and its role in the universe's expansion, as well as the speculative nature of the correlations being discussed.

If someone has the 'theoretical' reason?. as to the Expansion cause of the Universe, can he/she let me know as I believe that I have found something fascinating, give some links and evidence and I will compare it to my "speculation".

I have recently gone through a mass of paperwork looking for some incling of 'what I found', and have found nothing that even speculates as an afterthought.

Either I have found something pro-found?..or it has no baring on the Accelerated Universe evidence.

I will not post my speculation in order to preserve the post without a atoumatic deletion being imposed.

So let's have your best shots as to the 'evidence' and provide some links for all to see.

If your an academic (doubt it!) or even if your a Graduate looking for some arena for a research topic this may be interesting.

P.S no handwaving aloud :biggrin:

A trick question deserves a trick answer?

What is the correlation between the 'primordial' Blackhole absorption rate, and the 'current' accelerated Vacuum Expansion rate?
 
About the same as Diracs proton-electron relationship for the age of the universe.

Which is?
According to Witten?..Einstein?..or Anthropic reasnoning?
 
the expanision of the universe could be due to dark energy, which nobody seems to know what it is but it makes up 78% of the known universe, this dark energy seems to be excellerating the speed at which the universe expands
