    How is Cosmic Background Radiation Generated and What Does It Reveal?

    I have read the „Fabric of the Cosmos“ and realize that a lot of what is written are theories that are still being worked on. The following is talked about: just before inflation there was a field called the inflaton field. What caused the big stretch was that for the briefest of time the...

    Expanding Universe (an interestin mind experiment)

    Don´t think of it as play dough, think of it as a raisin muffin in an oven. As the muffin itself expands, the raisins expand with the muffin giving all the raisins a expansion movement from what ever raisin you are standing on.

    Double Slit: Measurement Device & Screen Combination?

    If an electron moves through a double slit without being subjected to any measurement device it will act as a wave and cause interference patterns on a screen. If the electron it measured before or after the slits it will act as a particle and no interference patterns will be be seen on the...

    Time Arrow: Entropy & Energy - QP Explored

    I have heard the terms "order and disorder" mentioned when regarding the universe. Is the universe (that most people think is expanding) moving from a more ordered situation to a more disordered one or the other way round. The terms order / disorder form part of the entropy priciples, where...

    Time Arrow: Entropy & Energy - QP Explored

    Thanks. Formulating the questions is almost as difficult as coming to grips with some of the principles. I have read that it is a goal of all matter to achieve the lowest energy state possible. When objects move from order to disorder, are they always achieving this goal?

    Time Arrow: Entropy & Energy - QP Explored

    I have only recently started reading about QP and there seems to be a big question mark on whether time has an arrow (direction). There seems to be a tendency leaning towards entropy having an influence on this topic. This is that, time moves in accordance to order vs disorder - the arrow facing...
