In April last year, as an alternative to the Big Bang theory, several English physicists presented a new theory. Now the theory has been sophisticated, which seems to have achieved greater mathematical precision.
Ekpyrotic Model or The Big Splat can be heard to designate this new theory and is a very peculiar way of explaining how the universe is created and disappears.
The current idea of the cosmos is based mainly on the theory of the Big Bang. According to this, the Universe was born as a consequence of a gigantic explosion and follows an evolutionary process that extends rapidly.
But in April last year Neil Turok, Paul Steindhardt and the cosmologists of his working groups, presented another theory that explains the origin of the universe. According to this theory, the universe is born from the collision of two giant four-dimensional ‘membranes’ in a five-dimensional space. Apparently, at a very small distance there are two infinite membranes. The energy that caused the shock of these membranes generated all the energy and matter that is in our universe. Then the membranes moved away and the newborn universe will continue to evolve until it disappears. But the process extends to infinity, because from time to time these collisions occur between the membranes and everything begins again.
For Turok, the new model is mathematically consistent and aesthetically pleasing.
