"Mass just as any shadow was delayed a little bit..." I've said that "mass and matter ...for that "matter" too... are an integral part of a physical phenomenon [not religious, not a miracle in the making...] simply the "spontaneous and immidiate "side effect" of the process followed right after the energy-expansion that took place during the event called "The Big-Bang."
I've said in the very introduction of this thread, that according to my beliefs, when energy went through this fast expansion that scattered it in all-directions in a straight path toward the newly borne "Cosmos" no SPIN was [yet] present between speks of the same energy taking part in the explosion.
THERE WAS NO "SHADOW" ANYWHERE YET!!!
Imagine that you stand right on front a potent light source hoping to see your own reflexion against a screen located light years behind your position... It's just another of my thought-experiments but I promiss you'll find it very interesting.
The source sparks a pulse toward you and your "siluete" "your contours" will travel at the speed of light toward the distant "screen." If you use Logic and Common sense... It wouldn't be to difficult to conclude that you had no shadow for as many seconds as many 300000 kms fit into the distance the light must cover... right? Clear so far?
The same "argument" could be adopted to understand why "mass" and even "matter" [as the conjugation of mass with energy] were IRRELEVANT as physical entities in any serious consideration regarding the first instants of Genesis.
They were not there! Not until the expansion-phase slowed down to the point in which energy began to interact [waves emanating from the speks] with each other in a spinning pattern of interference... "Standing Waves."
With this example I will move to another topic of our reality. Now, it is your choice to admit it or disregard it completely.
Numbers as in mathematics were simply IRRELEVANT during the expansion phase and the reason is pretty eloquent:
Numbers are the representation of "things" countable entities suppose to exist in space and time. Since there was no ENTROPY yet and no mass was observable yet, numbers are not compatibles with a new reality in process... only after that reality was complete that they acquired the meanning that was intend them to carry.
HUMANBYDEFAULT
A last minute clarification:
The transition process between EXPANSION and MUTUAL-ENERGY-INTERACTION finally giving birth to the first "mass" and the first heavy atoms of the "creation" was subject to a "theoretical compromise."
When the strength of the expansion was equal to the force explained above [the one responsible for what particle physicists call "Asymptotic Freedom"] the transition process began immidiately. Due to the power of the forces involved both in the explosion and in the making of the interference pattern I believe that the [human-time] required to conclude the transition could be considered as almost ZERO! A HUGE EXPLOSION WAS FOLLOWED BY THE PRESENCE OF A HUGE CELESTIAL BODY IN ALMOST THE SAME TIME... Hard to believe isn't it? |
