Stephen Hawking's postuma theory proposes that the universe is not infinite

Stephen Hawking's postuma theory , perhaps the most important of the famous astrophysicist, presents a vision of the cosmos much simpler than that of other current models.Is the universe not infinite as it has been proposed for decades? According to this work concluded by Hawking a few months after his death, the universe has limits, it is finite .

Stephen Hawking's postuma theory

Before that the Stephen Hawking postuma theory , developed in collaboration with Professor Thomas Hertog of the University of Leuven, Belgium, was published recently in the Journal of High Energy Physics , it was argued that the universe was born from a brief explosion during a minimum fraction of a second after the Big Bang, when the cosmos began to expand exponentially .This vision of the cosmos also proposes that , once inflation begins, for quantum effects there are regions that never stop growing.That is, inflation is eternal, which translates into an infinite universe.

Stephen Hawking and Thomas Hertog

But Stephen Hawking was not a defender of the multiverse, to show this theory that simplifies the notion of a universe" infinite fractal "with a mosaic of different universes, reducing it to "a much smaller universe, homogeneous and manageable," as described by Hertog.On the other hand Hawking defined it as a reasonably smooth and globally finite .it is a fractal structure ».

The previous theory, according to scientists, could not be tested experimentally if the scale of the different universes in the multiverse is large or infinite.Three years ago when Hertog and Hawking embarked on this study, they applied the string theory mathematics to explain the origin of the universe.With this method they would correct those elements of the multiverse theory that they did not they convince them at all or that they found them wrong, and the most Importantly, this model would become more predictive, reliable and verifiable with the formulas they postulate.

Stephen Hawking's postuma theory proposes that the universe is not infinite

« We are not in a single universe, but our findings imply a reduction meaningful of the multiverse, to a much smaller range of possible universes, » based Hawking in relation to this theory that entered revision ten days before his death.

Gravitational waves would be the primary object to verify this structure , however, said by its authors, gravitational waves would have a very long wavelength, out of the reach of our current LIGO detectors (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory ) On the basis of this, Hertog plans to study the theory on small scales, adapting It is the capacity of the current space telescopes.

As far as this is concerned, there is still a long way to go and develop this theory that would open a portal to find evidence about the existence of parallel universes, but with Regarding the opinion of other physicists, the conclusions of Hawking and Hertog embodied in the document are only speculative and insubstantial.

Proven: Men are more likely to be idiots

That nobody take this as a sexist article.Maybe if a man wrote it, he would give it another approach, but that science confirms something that women have been suspecting for a lifetime, is a triumph.The fact is that the British Medical Journal recently confirmed the theory of male idiocy and that many times they do very stupid things. The funny thing is that the study has been led by a 15-year-old British teenager named Ben Lendrem, the son of a prestigious medical professional, who has become the youngest researcher in history to publish in a medical journal. Would he be fed up? Young Ben to listen again and again to the famous stereotype that the boys are idiots , and even to check it among their parents? What kind of guy is asked to check the theory of male idiocy? The fact that a male, moreover, a young boy, has been the promoter of an investigation of this seems to me enough argument not to consider it a sexist initiative. Men and women do not behave the same Other inv...

There are 4 personality classes. You will not like the most common

Talking about personality classes is not something new.Classification by types of human beings has existed since time immemorial, almost always to justify some kind of discrimination or forced servitude; but for a couple of centuries, with the emergence of social sciences , interest in different personality types has been oriented to improve social behaviors, educational models and, In recent times, as a tool to formulate programs for robotics. There are 4 personality classes.The one that is more common you will NOT like Recently the magazine Science Advances published a study conducted by Spanish researchers from the Carlos III University, in which researchers from the universities of Zaragoza, Rovira and Virgili and Barcelona also participated, entitled “Human beings show a reduced set of behavioral phenotypes in daily games ”, In which the existence of 4 basic personality classes was determined when it comes to certain social dynamics that involve some kind of interactio...

The oldest beers and wines that have been discovered

Did you know that beers and wines have been the oldest alcoholic beverages of which we have news? And that there is a theory rolling around that ensures that both writing and agriculture-perhaps two of the most important technologies of humanity-were born, or invented, thanks to these drinks? It seems joke, but the truth is that alcohol has been present in human life since prehistoric times, so we will talk about the oldest beers and wines that have been found. The oldest beers and wines that have been discovered China, ancient Egypt, the Vikings, pre-Inca cultures, Sumeria, ancient Greece or the Canaanites are some of the towns where traces of manufacturing both beer have been found as of wine, as well as special sites for storage. In China, in 2004, a group of archaeologists found a site today considered as the oldest brewery , in the province of Shannxi , north of the country; they found traces of an alcoholic concoction whose base was honey, some type of fruits and ric...

They build a ghost town in the US

Surely you've ever heard of ghost towns, those towns that 40 or 50 years ago were quiet rural villages but now have run out of inhabitants due to the rural exodus of their inhabitants and the death of their older neighbors Well, forget everything you know about them, because in the United States they will build a ghost town. With so many abandoned villages the initiative seems shocking, because it is a city of tests for the future. A fully equipped city Behind this striking project is the technology development company Pegasus Global Holdings, which has already designed the city, where 35,000 people could be installed, and when we we refer to a city, we refer to a city equipped with everything we can find in any city we know: houses, centr The commercial, industrial estates in the surroundings and an extensive communications network, which has as highlights a highway and an airport. The Center, which is how this ghost town has been baptized (its full name is The Cent...

The Haitian ZOMBIS CREATOR substance

Haiti is a republic located in the West Indies and is one of the poorest countries in the world.After the terrible earthquake it suffered, it has barely raised its head and 80 % of its population lives below the poverty line.They basically subsist on fishing and agriculture.Perhaps this situation of their population makes it more susceptible to practices such as voodoo and also to the use of herbs and natural remedies . Why do scientists travel to Haiti? Since the 1980s, groups of scientists travel to Haiti to study the flora of the country in search of plants that can be used as base for new pharmacological products .They are especially interested in hallucinogenic plants.They want, among other things, to discover the exact composition of the « zombie-creating powders ». They think that if the complete formula of this substance is discovered, they could obtain a new type of anesthesia that would make the patient pain insensitive and that he kept him paralyzed and...

Can dogs lie to us or deceive us?
