Death of the Universe (Introduction)
GEORGE: Reviving an old thread here. It seems the Big Crunch is back on the agenda-http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/12/131212113034.htm-Or a new form of Collapse of the Universe due to a glitch in the Higgs Field. But apparently the discovery of one new particle may contradict the whole thesis!-Thank you for this, George. Here are two quotes that deserve the Royal Society Gold Medal for Nebulosity:-"The phase transition will start somewhere in the universe and spread from there. Maybe the collapse has already started somewhere in the universe and right now it is eating its way into the rest of the universe. Maybe a collapse is starting right now right here. Or maybe it will start far away from here in a billion years. We do not know," says Jens Frederik Colding Krog.-Although the new calculations predict that a collapse is now more likely than ever before, it is actually also possible, that it will not happen at all. It is a prerequisite for the phase change that the universe consists of the elementary particles that we know today, including the Higgs particle. If the universe contains undiscovered particles, the whole basis for the prediction of phase change disappears. "Then the collapse will be canceled," says Jens Frederik Colding Krog.-www.AgnosticWeb.com is proud to bring you the very latest findings of its own research team:-"Following our prediction that the indefinite article particle is bound to be found," says Professor dhw, "I can reassure the world that the universe has not begun to collapse, and will not even begin to collapse within the next billion years. My team and I are prepared to bet on this at odds of 1 billion to 1. Stakes (not less than $100) should be sent as soon as possible, please, by electronic transfer to The DHW Space Research Centre, Taunton, England."
