AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the origins of the first universe, questioning how it came into existence if universes can collide and split. Participants acknowledge that this topic is highly speculative and lacks concrete answers. There is a consensus that current scientific understanding does not provide a valid explanation for the beginning of the universe. The thread concludes with a note that it will be closed due to the lack of serious sources on the matter. Overall, the origins of the universe remain an open and unresolved question in cosmology.

Thread 'Illuminating Black Hole Shadows with Dark Matter Annihilation'

Abstract The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has significantly advanced our ability to study black holes, achieving unprecedented spatial resolution and revealing horizon-scale structures. Notably, these observations feature a distinctive dark shadow—primarily arising from faint jet emissions—surrounded by a bright photon ring. Anticipated upgrades of the EHT promise substantial improvements in dynamic range, enabling deeper exploration of low-background regions, particularly the inner shadow...

Thread 'Questions about quantum cosmology'

what is the current status of the field for quantum cosmology, are there any observations that support any theory of quantum cosmology? is it just cosmology during the Planck era or does it extend past the Planck era. what are the leading candidates into research into quantum cosmology and which physics departments research it? how much respect does loop quantum cosmology has compared to string cosmology with actual cosmologists?
