Measuring the Distance Between First & Last Particles of the Big Bang

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on measuring the distance between the first and last particles entering the "Bang event field" during the Big Bang. Participants express confusion over the concept of the "Bang event field," indicating a lack of established terminology in scientific literature. The conversation suggests that understanding the Big Bang is essential before attempting to quantify distances related to particle entry. Overall, the topic highlights the need for clearer definitions and concepts in cosmology.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Big Bang cosmology
  • Familiarity with particle physics
  • Knowledge of cosmological terminology
  • Basic concepts of distance measurement in physics
NEXT STEPS

Can we measure the distance between the first particle to enter the Bang event field and the last particle to enter? What would this distance indicate?

What is the "Bang event field"? Not even google knows that (with this thread as only result).

Edit: Similar to this thread, I think you should read a bit about the big bang first. Your question does not make sense.
