Q_1_04 — Multiverse Theories

The multiverse hypothesis — that our observable universe is one of many — arises independently from at least four domains of physics and mathematics: quantum mechanics (Everett's Many-Worlds, 1957), inflationary cosmolog

Q_1_14 — Vacuum Energy and the Cosmological Constant Problem

The cosmological constant problem is widely regarded as the most severe fine-tuning problem in all of physics. Quantum field theory predicts that the vacuum of spacetime is not empty but seethes with zero-point fluctuati

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_18 — Loop Quantum Gravity: Discrete Spacetime and the Planck Scale

Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) is one of two major approaches (alongside string theory) to the quantization of general relativity — the long-sought unification of quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of gravity. LQG's fou

Q_1_03 — Ancient Cosmologies Compared: How Civilizations Understood the Universe

Every civilization on Earth constructed a cosmology — a model of how the universe began, how it is structured, and how it will end. What is remarkable is not the differences but the convergences: primordial waters as the

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_09 — Fate of the Universe

How will the universe end? This question has moved from philosophy and eschatology into hard physics, driven by the 1998 discovery that the universe's expansion is ACCELERATING (Riess et al. 1998; Perlmutter et al. 1999

Q_1_20 — Fractal Cosmology: Is the Universe Self-Similar Across Scales?

The observable universe organises matter into a staggering fractal-like web of galaxy filaments, walls, voids, and clusters — structures visible at scales from 1 Mpc (galaxy groups) to 600 Mpc (the Hercules-Corona Boreal
