TL;DR
Do physicists have a name for the opposite of a singularity?
Whereas a singularity is everything together, is there a name for a proposed end state after a Big Bang or something similar? Is there a name for that situation (hypothetical or not) where each elemental particle is so far from every other elemental particle that nothing affects anything anymore, and we have a cold, dead, immobile (?) state?

Thanks.
