Q_1_07 — CMB Anomalies and the Axis of Evil

The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) — the afterglow of the Big Bang, emitted ~380,000 years after the universe began — is the most precisely measured radiation in the history of science. It matches the theoretical pred

Q_1_22 — Dark Flow and Cosmic Dipole Anomalies

Dark flow refers to a claimed coherent bulk motion of galaxy clusters toward a specific region of the sky at velocities inconsistent with the predictions of standard ΛCDM cosmology, first reported by NASA Goddard astroph

Q_1_24 — Cosmic Microwave Background Deep Analysis

The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is the oldest observable electromagnetic radiation in the universe — thermal radiation released approximately 380,000 years after the Big Bang (redshift z ≈ 1,100) when the universe

Q_1_13 — Cosmic Strings and Topological Defects

Cosmic strings are one-dimensional topological defects that may have formed during symmetry-breaking phase transitions in the early universe, analogous to cracks in ice or vortex lines in superfluids. Predicted by Kibble

Q_1_10 — Cosmic Inflation and the First Second

Cosmic inflation — the hypothesis that the universe underwent an exponential expansion in the first 10⁻³⁶ to 10⁻³² seconds after the Big Bang — was proposed by Alan Guth in 1981 to resolve critical problems in standard B

Q_4_01 — Primordial Gravitational Waves and B-Mode Polarization

Primordial gravitational waves — ripples in spacetime generated during cosmic inflation — represent one of the most sought-after signals in cosmology. Their detection would provide direct evidence that inflation occurred

Q_3_11 — Cosmic Reionization and First Stars

The Epoch of Reionization (EoR) refers to the period in cosmic history (~150 million to ~1 billion years after the Big Bang, redshifts z ≈ 15–6) when the first luminous sources — Population III (Pop III) stars, early gal
