Does big bang have really any justification while we are living within a huge chaos?
All the physicists already know that the n-body problem reveals chaos, so that the planets around the sun should undergo deterministic chaos with a Lyapunov exponent of the order of, say, $\frac{+1}{3....

Big Crunch, then new Big Bang = exact same Universe? [closed]
If after a Big Crunch, the new singularity explodes in a Big Bang, would we get the same Universe all over again? Since black holes retain all the information they've stored, would we get an exact ...

If the energy of $1 \, \mathrm{bit}$ of information is $k_{\small{\text{B}}}T \ln{2}$, then the energy of that bit increases with the temperature of the system. When I try to calculate how much energy ...

Inflation v.s. Big Bang
It is said that that transition or certain quantum rotor field, and “rolling” down into the valley (of some quantum potential), is what causes inflation to come to an end, and create the hot Big Bang.

If the Universe reaches the state of heat death scenario, could it produce a new Big Bang? [duplicate]
So in heat death of the Universe time stops, matter is degraded, only quantum vacuum remains and the universe no longer expands?
Aren't those conditions similar to what physicists say about the ...
