Turbulence and mixing in the early universe | | Carl H. Gibson
; | | Date: |
1 Oct 2001 | | Subject: | astro-ph | | Affiliation: | University of California at San Diego | | Abstract: | The role of turbulence and turbulent mixing in the formation and evolution of the early universe is examined. A new quantum-gravitational-dynamics model suggests that the mechanism of the hot big bang is functionally equivalent to the mechanism of turbulence, where an inertial-vortex force at Planck scales matches the Planck gravitational force and drives the formation of space-time-energy and the formation of more Planck particles, more spinning Planck-Kerr particles, and a big bang turbulence cascade to larger scales before cooling to the strong force freeze out temperature. Temperature fluctuations between the Planck temperature and strong force temperature are mixed by turbulence to give a Corrsin-Obukhov spectral form. Inflation fossilizes the turbulent temperature fluctuations by stretching them beyond the horizon scale of causal connection ct, where c is light speed and t is time. Fossil temperature turbulence fluctuations seed anisotropies in the nucleosynthesis of light elements, causing density fluctuations that seed the first formation of gravitational structure in the matter dominated hydrogen-helium plasma: proto-voids at galaxy supercluster scales. Evidence of the proposed big bang turbulence event and first gravitational structure formation is provided by the spectral form of the cosmic microwave temperature fluctuations, which have been misinterpreted as sonic. | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0110012 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
