SUMMARY

Baryon asymmetry occurred approximately 10^-32 seconds after the Big Bang, as confirmed by multiple sources including Simon Singh's book "Big Bang." At this moment, the universe's temperature reached around 10^15 Kelvin, resulting in a predominance of matter over antimatter. This critical phase is essential for understanding the evolution of the universe and the formation of galaxies.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of the Big Bang theory
  • Familiarity with particle physics concepts
  • Knowledge of cosmic temperature scales
  • Basic grasp of baryon and antimatter interactions
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the implications of baryon asymmetry on cosmic evolution
  • Study the role of temperature in particle formation during the early universe
  • Explore advanced concepts in quantum field theory related to matter-antimatter asymmetry
  • Investigate current theories and experiments regarding baryogenesis
USEFUL FOR

Astronomers, physicists, and students of cosmology seeking to deepen their understanding of the early universe and the fundamental forces that shaped its evolution.

Anyone knows at what time after big bang, baryon asymmetry happened..i read in Simon singh's book "Big Bang" that there was more mater than antimatter when the temperature of universe was 10^15...anyone knows about the time at which it happened?
