    Which Came First: Hawking Radiation or the Big Bang?

    Please excuse my ignorance, but could you please explain what "dark matter and dark energy" are (if you know the answer), or are you saying that you feel "confronted" and calling me "ignorant" as a conveinent way of backing out of the discussion because you have no real answers to the questions...

    Which Came First: Hawking Radiation or the Big Bang?

    You are putting words into my mouth, I don't believe that I have said "I don't believe in the big bang", I merely say that I only accept it as a theory. There are other explanations for redshift other than expansion and with current theory, the speed of expansion is increasing which I find hard...

    Which Came First: Hawking Radiation or the Big Bang?

    For anybody to give anything resembling a good answer to that question they would have to have a greater understanding of matter and energy than anybody currently has. I sit squarely in the "I don't know" corner, but I think that matter, antimatter and time are crucial ingredients in...

    Which Came First: Hawking Radiation or the Big Bang?

    I will accept this as fact when someone can tell me where this "primordial hot and dense initial condition" came from, or do physicist's believe it was put there by a "god".

    Which Came First: Hawking Radiation or the Big Bang?

    Well I hate to depress you further but I only accept the "big bang" as a theory not fact. Too many unanswered questions for me to accept it as fact.

    Which Came First: Hawking Radiation or the Big Bang?

    lol, cheer up..maybe the big bang theory is a waste of everyboys life lol.

    Which Came First: Hawking Radiation or the Big Bang?

    Unlike most on this thread I think I understand your question. I think you are using the theory that once the universe has expanded as far as it can it will contract until it becomes a singularity and then will explode to create another universe, theoretically a process that will continue for...

    From time to timescape – Einstein’s unfinished revolution?

    Dark Energy as simply a mis-identification of gravitational energy gradients and the resulting variance in clock rates? If that were true then there would be no dark energy in our galaxy because there would be little variance in clock rates, but I'm sure there is no evidence that suggests...

    Antimatter & Gravity: Is it Repulsed by Matter?

    I agree that 2+2=4 . If everything is known about a subject then the answer is obvious, maths is obvious, if not everything is known about a subject then how can you give a precise answer, a lot in particle physics is speculation so what makes you so sure the answer is 4? I said it is equally...

    Antimatter & Gravity: Is it Repulsed by Matter?

    I'm sure that antimatter reacts to gravity exactly the same as matter, but if a large enough antimatter mass was created so that it had its own gravitational field then that gravitational field might repel normal gravity. Being that the field was created by antimatter then it could have an...

    Antimatter & Gravity: Is it Repulsed by Matter?

    Co ordinate time is an easy thing to understand, you experience it everyday. Proper time isn't like that at all. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proper_time Antimatter might experience time in a "different direction" than matter, who knows? :wink: but there is nothing ludicrous about the idea...

    Antimatter & Gravity: Is it Repulsed by Matter?

    I think that the lecturer (from Berkeley) was meaning that if so much antimatter mass could be created that it formed an anti gravitational field then it could repel against gravity. That sounds feasible but would require a large amount of antimatter. Your comments made about the formation of...

    Antimatter & Gravity: Is it Repulsed by Matter?

    Yes learn to read, I put there are no anti photons NOT anti protons, What makes you think you know more about anti matter than me? Did you know that it is used everyday in hospital P.E.T scanners? Do you know anything about the "theoretical" mirror anti world? Do you know how many experiments...

    Antimatter & Gravity: Is it Repulsed by Matter?

    learn to read and where can i buy a gram of antimatter?

    Antimatter & Gravity: Is it Repulsed by Matter?

    There is no anti gravity, there is also no anti gluons or anti photons, end of story.
