AI Thread Summary
The discussion explores the concept of mass potentially having latency, suggesting that the residual effects of mass could create measurable changes in space-time over time. It proposes investigating colliding galaxies to test this theory, particularly focusing on the behavior of dark matter. Participants express skepticism about the feasibility of the idea, questioning the scientific background of the original poster. The conversation highlights the importance of a solid understanding of physics and mathematics when discussing complex theories. Overall, the topic raises intriguing questions about the nature of mass and its effects on the universe.

if mass has a latency the residual dimple in space / time of a mass could have leave a measurable furrow that becomes shallower over time. you could check colliding galaxies to see if this is true, the 'dark matter' will dissipate.

your first post and you just joined today.

your comment strikes me as being very naive (for any number of reasons). How old are you?

old enough to know i don't have the math or science to ask the question better. but an idea is still an idea
 
what grade are you in? How much physics have you studied?
 

Thread 'Matter density right after the decoupling'

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recombination_(cosmology) Was a matter density right after the decoupling low enough to consider the vacuum as the actual vacuum, and not the medium through which the light propagates with the speed lower than ##({\epsilon_0\mu_0})^{-1/2}##? I'm asking this in context of the calculation of the observable universe radius, where the time integral of the inverse of the scale factor is multiplied by the constant speed of light ##c##.

Thread 'Rutgers finds a transparent Einstein Cross - apparently a dark matter "halo".'

The formal paper is here. The Rutgers University news has published a story about an image being closely examined at their New Brunswick campus. Here is an excerpt: Computer modeling of the gravitational lens by Keeton and Eid showed that the four visible foreground galaxies causing the gravitational bending couldn’t explain the details of the five-image pattern. Only with the addition of a large, invisible mass, in this case, a dark matter halo, could the model match the observations...

Thread 'Big Bang and Infinite Universe'

Hi, I’m pretty new to cosmology and I’m trying to get my head around the Big Bang and the potential infinite extent of the universe as a whole. There’s lots of misleading info out there but this forum and a few others have helped me and I just wanted to check I have the right idea. The Big Bang was the creation of space and time. At this instant t=0 space was infinite in size but the scale factor was zero. I’m picturing it (hopefully correctly) like an excel spreadsheet with infinite...
