Max Tegmark - How Did Matter Form in the Early Universe?

The early universe was a superhot plasma of particles all running seemingly at random as if in a gigantic cauldron. How then the structure we see today with galaxies, stars, and planets? What forces were at work? What stages did the universe go through? How long did it take? How sure can we be?

    No . It was way too hot . Immediately (much less than a second) after the Big Bang, the universe was both too hot and too dense for elements to form. Hydrogen didn’t appear until the universe had spread out - and subsequently cooled - enough for the first protons and neutrons, and later simple atoms, to form. Between about 10-12 and 10-6 second after the Big Bang, neutrinos, quarks, and electrons formed. Protons and neutrons began forming shortly after, from about 10-6 to 1 second after the Big Bang. Within about 3 minutes after the Big Bang, conditions cooled enough for these protons and neutrons to form hydrogen nuclei. This is called the era of nucleosynthesis. Some of these nuclei combined to form helium as well, though in much smaller quantities (just a few percent). But after about 20 minutes, nucleosynthesis ended and no further nuclei could form. The problem at this point was that electrons couldn’t stay in orbit around any atomic nucleus because of the immense heat and radiation still flooding the universe. Shortly after any neutral atoms would form (neutral atoms simply contain the same number of protons and electrons, and thus carry no overall charge), they were knocked apart again by energetic radiation. Finally, after 380,000 years or so, the universe had again expanded and cooled enough for conditions to favor electrons staying in orbit around atomic nuclei. This is when recombination occurred - neutral hydrogen (and helium) finally appeared because they could “recombine with” (hold on to) electrons without easily losing them to stray radiation. If that number sounds familiar, it should - 380,000 years after the Big Bang is also the time when the cosmic microwave background was generated, because the atoms that formed entered their lowest energy state quickly after, releasing excess energy in the form of photons that could finally travel freely through the universe without knocking into anything along the way. This is the light that makes up the cosmic microwave background.

    (9:10) *MT: **_"So, in summary, it's really remarkable how we humans trying to think about where things came from have been able to put together a story which takes us all the way back to when the universe was less than a second old."_* ... Remarkable, yes, but that's not enough to satisfy our curiosity. We want to know what was going on just _prior_ to that first second. As opposed to an infinitely existing universe (Steady State), an infinitely recycling universe (Big Bounce), and an infinite number of universes (Multiverse), I propose yet another explanation that takes us back to before the Big Bang. In my book I take you to a nondimensional arena of *raw information* where the beginning of Existence emerged immediately prior to the physical universe you enjoy today. In the beginning there was a timeless juxtaposition of *Existence* and *Nonexistence* as this is as far back as logical conceivability allows you to regress. Existence represented the smallest, logically conceivable bit of self-data with Nonexistence representing whatever is not being represented by this data. *Existence = data* (1), (energy) *Nonexistence = no data* (0), (no energy) Logic emerged the instant this smallest, logically conceivable bit of data (energy) enacted a self-assessment (self-awareness) by counting itself as *1.* This rudimentary numerical assessment also required a minimum amount of energy (Landauer Limit). Each mathematical operation that followed required the production of even more energy. This caused an instantaneous "chain reaction" of information that ultimately moved from nondimensionality into multidimensionality (Big Bang). This same 0-1 juxtaposition was later made manifest in the form of Hydrogen (proton 1, electron 0) and is continuously reexplored via positive-negative, matter-antimatter, black-white, life-death, good-evil, theist-atheist, democrat-republican, dualism-monism, etc. Fast forward 13.8 billion years and *"YOU"* now represent the latest stage of this ongoing evolution of information. Humans are the newly emerged arbitrators of *value* in Existence. We are deciding whether or not that "first logical move" enacted by existence was justifiable. So, ... _was it?_

    Hi there, I have questions. Hopefully you will read and answer them earnestly. '[...] I propose yet another explanation that takes us back to before the Big Bang. In my book I take you to a nondimensional arena of raw information where the beginning of Existence emerged immediately prior to the physical universe you enjoy today. In the beginning there was a timeless juxtaposition of *Existence* and *Nonexistence* as this is as far back as logical conceivability allows you to regress. Existence represented the smallest, logically conceivable bit of self-data with Nonexistence representing whatever is not being represented by this data. Existence = data Nonexistence = no data Logic emerged the instant this smallest, logically conceivable bit of data (energy) enacted a self-assessment (self-awareness) by counting itself as 1.' ▪︎ So, how do you propose to explain... Existence? You present it in a state of juxtaposition with Non-existence, without really explaining how or why this state would be the default state of reality, and this too, cries out for an explanation. ▪︎ How is it 'prior' to the physical universe and 'before' the Big Bang if it is a nondimensional 'arena' (yet another spatiotemporal term)? And how is it a 'beginning' of Existence (without time?), especially when this proposed _raw information_ already contains Existence, implying Existence was already there, but somehow coexisting with Non-existence (so Nonexistence was... existing? That doesn't sound right does it?)? What I aim to do when pointing out the spacetime-laden language you employ and existence-laden concept you offer is to show you that, at least when you summarise it here, you are in fact assuming these concepts, not explaining them, since you're using them to describe a presumed beginning thereof, which doesn't quite work does it? ▪︎ Similarly, you use logical conceivability to regress back to a state of timeless juxtaposition, which you place _prior_ to the emergence of Logic (as an existing entity, sorry what? 🤔), meaning you are yet again assuming, not explaining, a concept (Logic here being used to probe whatever state is 'prior' to Logic in your view). How is this an explanation? ▪︎ What does the term 'self-data' mean? If Existence is data and Existence is also self-data, this would imply data is self-data, how are these two things different? You equate Existence, data, and energy, and give it the capacity to enact 'self-assessment', which you take it as 'counting itself as 1', which somehow causes the emergence of Logic in this scenario, yet this isn't how any of these concepts operate with one another. ▪︎ Does a property of Existence involve self-computing in your proposition? If so, how does this work, and how is it not implying that "self-assessment" and "Logic" with a capital L are equally part of the default state of reality in your proposition? Again, this paragraph reads like you're assuming - not explaining - each of these concepts that you're employing, and consequently I am perplexed as to what I am supposed to understand as an explanation in this otherwise interesting narrative? Would you mind explaining your explanation for me? 😅

I don't have the time to answer them all, so I'll answer the questions that are best suited for a simple comment thread. *"So, how do you propose to explain... Existence?"* ... By writing a 282-page book on it. That's how. *"What I aim to do when pointing out the spacetime-laden language you employ and existence-laden concept you offer is to show you that, at least when you summarise it here, you are in fact assuming these concepts, not explaining them, since you're using them to describe a presumed beginning thereof, which doesn't quite work does it?"* ...

I explained this in my original comment. This E-NE juxtaposition represents the lower-limit of conceivability. The only condition beyond this would be a single state of Nonexistence which cannot be conceived nor satisfactorily communicated. You are incapable of conceiving or communicating "nothing." To do so would require you to make the claim "nothing exists" which is a self-conflicting statement. In order for information to be present, it must be able to be communicated. Anything that's unable to be communicated is not information. *"What does the term 'self-data' mean?"* ... Exactly what the words convey: "self-data." Strip existence down to its lowest conceivable state and all you have is whatever raw information is available. An example would be a "mathematical point" which is only known to exist by its coordinates. The point's coordinates indicate the presence of "something," but it does not define what that something is. The absolute minimum amount of information this point can yield is "self-data" (Its own data). *"Does a property of Existence involve self-computing in your proposition?"* ... Existence is orchestrated by logic (mathematics). Whatever can be accomplished through mathematics can equally be accomplished within Existence. "Acellular division" is a perfect example. A female rabbit producing ten offspring is another. The entire periodic table works like an existential abacus for structure. The rest of your questions are asking for far too much "information" out of a comment thread. I've written a book to explain it all, and that should suffice.

Not everything, which is very small (like cells or proteins), is subject to the quantum world. You have to be very careful, which tools you use to describe certain phenomena.

    I am not a physicist but I am just trying to understand the concept of the big bang. Right before the big bang happened there was energy stored somewhere, atoms, neutron, protons, etc So can I conclude that the universe existed but in different "form or shape"? we don't know for how long since time did not exist. This is very confusing 🙂

    This interview is over 10 years old, I believe... The thinking's kind of changed into our particular Universe being just one of a continually erupting (take this word with a grain of salt -- it's just how I think of it) series of Universes making up a Multiverse. So, yes, there were things going on before our Universe began -- but we're not sure what, exactly. However, what the guest speaker says about the beginning of our Universe is still considered valid -- and for which there is a lot of observational support. Understand, however, that I'm speaking here just as a layman from my understanding. Not everybody, I think, would agree with the "continually erupting" part. Not sure...

    I have a problem here. We are told there is zero energy in the universe because energy is cancelled out by the negative energy associated with matter through the force of gravity. If at the very start of the universe there was only energy and no matter, the energy could not be cancelled out by negative energy associated with matter through the force of gravity as there was no matter. Therefore my question is where did this energy come from? Gravity would not have manifested itself until matter arose. We are also led to believe that at the time of the singularity gravity was infinite. How could it have been if there was no matter around at the time? Furthermore if gravity had not manifested itself at this stage how could it have been in reverse in order to initiate the Big Bang. What caused the quantum fields to form and what is the basis of space expanding and the so called inflatons? Surely this would also require large amounts of energy, something we now pass off as dark energy. I cannot see how it can just be an intrinsic quality of space time. My last question is this, is time facilitated by the expansion of space and should the universe ever start to contract would time run backwards, and would any future Big Bang simply be the same time and space being formed again forming an identical universe and occurrences over and over again? Any help with this would be appreciated.

They are experts on time and spin. In tracing out how matter forms the universe we can't assume a single big bang. We generally have a good idea how stars and planets form but have hit a roadblock at quantum scales. Kumiko Krchnak's model, 935-qkk, offers a picture of highly regenerative waves at quantum scales allowing for clumping together of atoms, molecules, and the entire range of chemicals and compounds that comprise our universe. What's more the model works at large-scales, too, to the extent it portrays the universe as in constant motion between orbital and expanding paths.

    The Big Bang is a misleading metaphor: an explosion is the conversion of matter into energy and the origin of the universe was the opposite, the conversion of energy into matter. The conversion of energy into matter is more appropriately described as a 'Big Downpour' such as occurs with the conversion of water vapor in the sky to a thunderstorm. In effect, the origin of the universe occurred as a cooling process of condensation from energy to plasma which generated a massive expanse of space-time. We also need to rethink the evolution of the universe in terms of space-time dilation in considering the age of the universe.

    The Big Bang was named by an Atheist who realized the expanding Universe data supported the Creation of the Universe by God ... when almost all at the time believed the Universe was infinite & always existed. There is no "big" explosion in Genesis billions of years ago .. but simply a 6 day Creation less than 6000 years ago. The Function, Intelligence & Mind Categories .... prove the Universe & Life ... are Functions composed entirely of Function ... and were made by an intelligence with an unnatural & nonphysical mind ( spirit or soul). Man is Natural Intelligence and therefore the Mind of Man is natural (brain) & unnatural ( soul). This is the simple & obvious evidence that God did create Man in His likeness with a body & Soul. And Jesus (Son of God) did confirm 2000 years ago with the Great Commandment that the Mind of Man ... is the body & soul ... which is why the Messiah had to be born of a virgin( made by God) and not actually be descended from King David. A 3400 year old Book told us that the Nature of Man is his corrupt Body .. and even the Son of God would think & do evil ... if he had a corrupt human body. Again. Atheists in the sciences are deliberately ignoring any evidence that supports God & a Creation, or calling it fake science by Theists. We have known for over 120 years ... that the Universe, Sun, Earth, Atmosphere, Life ... are thermodynamic systems with increasing entropy. All thermodynamic Systems ... are Functions ... and originate from the surrounding System(s) which must provide the matter & energy and space, time & Laws of Physics to exist & to function. A Function ... is simply a SYSTEM ... that processes inputs into outputs with clear PURPOSE & FORM and properties ( Information). The Universe was never infinite and always existed. Everything indeed came from something. The Universe is a Natural System ... that began & is expanding in ... an UNNATURAL System(s) which must provide the "everything" for the Universe to exist & function. See. The Laws of thermodynamics support Creation ... and so the Atheists completely ignore them or accuse Theists of "fake science." Likewise any Machine Analogies are ignored and considered fake science from Theists ... like Sir Issac Newton and his Watchmaker Analogy of 300 years ago. A Machine is simply a Function. Everything in the Universe is a Function ... processes inputs into outputs with clear & obvious PURPOSE & FORM ( design) and possess information to exist & to function. Mater & energy are physical functions Time, space, & the Laws of nature are abstract Functions. Only an intelligence makes Functions with information Only an intelligence extracts information from Functions The Laws of Physics are common INFORMATION that Man ( an intelligence) has extracted from various types of Functions only made by an intelligence. The Universe is not 13.7 billion years old ... and iatrogenesis, evolution, emergence, inflation are fake science from Atheists. God created the Universe ... over 4 days .... in an UNNATURAL System with unnatural Laws. Day 1 God instantly created the Heaven( space) and Earth ( matter & energy) in complete darkness. God then created a "Big Light" of matter & energy and called it "Day" and the darkness of space "Night." This Light was not the Sun or a star ....because on Day 4 all the stars are in the Heaven (space) and then God made the Solar System & put Earth into its orbit .... establishing the Earth day, month, year and seasons. God created the Universe over 4 days staring Day 1 with the Space of the Universe, Earth all alone ... and ... the energy & matter of the Universe is a vast "hollow" sphere of LIGHT. The CMBR ... is what remains of the "sphere" of Light that surrounded Earth. Inflation or formation of the cosmic bodies was over 4 x 24 hour days even though God doesn't define a Earth day until day 4. God had a reason for the 6 day creation & the 7th Day is for God .... for saying 1 day is like 1000 years ... and for Jesus(God's Son) to return to rule for 1000 years before Judgement Day .. with 144 000 male Jews who died in end times believing the Son of God is the promised Messiah. The current Jewish year since the Fall of Man is 5 782. 6 x 1000 years Man rules the Earth 1 x 1000 years God rules the Earth. Finally Judgement Day. Atheists are completely wrong with the science & their theology because Materialism is a religion with a firm belief in UNNATURAL processes. Nature can never make a Function. Everything in the Universe is a function.

    People want to know two things: 1) Where did the universe and life come from? 2) want to know what is outside the universe and beyond time, space and matter ? But the problem? People living on earth, especially secular scientists, want to know about the creation and existence of the universe only in the way they want to know. But whoever wants to know how the universe and life came into existence, one must study not only philosophy but also theology. Man cannot know about the creation or existence of the universe unless he goes back to his own existence or creation. Man is the product of two components, heavenly and earthly. But very few have come to make this a reality on this earth. Especially from the academic world. A person who wants to know the " TRUTH" must first accept or know the truth" before arriving at the desired " reality" through research and study. The reality is that results don't just come the way a person wants them to. If there is a person who thinks that he will reach the truth without knowing the truth, that person will never be able to reach the truth that he wants. A person who thinks that he can reach the truth by thinking only one idea does not know where the universe came from and where life began, to reach this fact, it is necessary to think like beyond the speed of light. When one thinks at the speed of light, not only understands many things hidden in man, but also could reach the ultimate reality. But in order to think faster than the speed of light, it is necessary first to get to the truth. Many people do not know where the universe came from or where life began because they think of it as a gradual change, not at the speed of light. To understand the difference between thinking like "the speed of light and gradual change". a person must look at the other world point of view otherwise that individual opens the door to only 50% of what they want to know. A person who can think at the speed of light is better than a research scientist who thinks about slow or gradual change.

    I would say matter is only an appearance / artefact of perception. In other words the Universe did not unfold 13.8 billion years ago how we humans are conceptualizing and visualizing it. A bats depiction of the Universe evolving from the Big Bang would be entirely different to ours, unrecognizable in fact. Which one is more correct? Neither, they are both an incomplete picture of reality (whatever that may be) guided by their particular perceptual aperatus. So it's a nice story to think that's how the Universe unfolded 13.8 billion years ago, but that's all it is - a story of how the Universe would look to A HUMAN, if they were there 13.8 billion years ago watching from the sidelines.

    Yes, while since Locke, Berkeley, Hume and Kant philosophers and scientists have pretty much understood that time, space, cause and effect and even things like matter and energy are all just appearances in our brains by means of our sensory perceptual apparatuses, wouldn't you agree that they --- while not being a hundred percent accurate --- still nevertheless correlate fairly well with the reality that is out there --- what Kant called the _thing in itself?_ Otherwise, our ideas and inventions would never work. The same appearances, in fact, that allowed us in our Evolutionary past to see that water buffalo over there and come up with a successful plan on how to hunt it, is what allowed us to come up with a successful plan to send members of our species to the Moon and back. And if so, then doesn't our perception of the Universe -- even if it looks nothing like the real reality that is out there -- still bear some weight and have some value -- as those perceptions and appearances have been working pretty well so far? We can at least say, it seems to me, that within our system of perceptions and appearances, 13.8 billion years as the age of the Universe is the best we got -- and like the guest here says, it is also an estimate backed up by a lot of data and predictions.

When in 1927 the Catholic priest Georges Lemaître created the Big Bang theory, it followed that the Big Bang theory would be enmeshed with the idea that the universe was created by a god, as Stephen Hawking learned when he visited the pope. ... "In 1985, I attended a conference on cosmology at the Vatican in Rome. The gathering of scientists had an audience with Pope John Paul II. He told us that it was okay to study the workings of the universe, but we should not ask questions about its origin, for that was the work of God." Stephen Hawking

    It's because he only takes time to speak with the "experts" in their field of expertise. He should take time and interview his audience on their thoughts and allow others to share their theories that challenge people like the Max Tegmarks of the world.

    Science vs. Religion Science looks for causes and mechanisms (what & how), Religion for “why”, for meaning. That is why, “Closer to truth” will never get closer to “Why”? The show excels in reason, and lacks meaning. It has a purpose, but no lasting value. And that is what you expect from an ego driven commercial enterprise.

    Thats how far Science can take us, we can go far back as to , Universe started with an intense heat wave , quarks-proton/neutron/electron-Hydrogen etc but who created these quarks, why this person created quarks and why this person planned to build the universe this way, nobody knows or can possibly understand. Thats the dead end.

    Why should the beginning of the universe be remotely intuitive for us to understand. Could be like explaining general relativity to a ladybird.

    This comment section is a clear sign that Robert's been having way too many religious thinkers on his show. It's inundated with spiritual nut cases who think just making woo woo sounding proclamations -- like they're some kind of self proclaimed prophet from on high -- amounts to anything.

    Science is a religion one based on faith at this point as all it has now is theories. The Big Bang is a Theory gravity is also a theory maybe you should try delving in facts sometime. Because Science seems to not be doing that much anymore.
