SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the theoretical concept of multiple universes originating from simultaneous Big Bangs, each with distinct physical constants and laws. Participants emphasize the necessity of grounding such ideas in established scientific models, highlighting the absence of valid references or peer-reviewed papers to support the premise. The original post is deemed unfounded, leading to the closure of the thread due to lack of scientific basis.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of cosmology and the Big Bang theory
  • Familiarity with the concept of physical constants in physics
  • Knowledge of scientific modeling and peer-reviewed research
  • Basic principles of theoretical physics and multiverse theories
NEXT STEPS
  • Research established cosmological models in peer-reviewed journals
  • Study the implications of physical constants in different theoretical frameworks
  • Explore multiverse theories and their scientific criticisms
  • Investigate the role of initial conditions in universe formation
USEFUL FOR

Physicists, cosmologists, and students of theoretical physics interested in the implications of multiverse theories and the scientific rigor required for such discussions.

TL;DR
Two (or more) Big Bangs produce multiple Universes: What happens if they touch?
Imagine there were two simultaneous Big Bangs, each producing an independent Universe, and well separated from each other at their formation. Presumably because each would have its own unique set of initial conditions and would follow its own development timeline, they would each have different sets of physical constants, and perhaps even different physical laws.

What would happen at the conjunction if they grew sufficiently large for them to touch?

You can't just "imagine" this. You need to find an actual model in a valid reference (textbook or peer-reviewed paper) that has this property. (Hint: You won't because there isn't one.)
 
The OP is not based on a valid premise. Thread closed.
