The heat death of the universe (also known as the Big Chill or Big Freeze) [1] [2] is a hypothesis on the ultimate fate of the universe, which suggests the universe will evolve to a state of no thermodynamic free energy, and will therefore be unable to sustain processes that increase entropy.
This is a timeline of the Universe from the Big Bang to the heat death scenario. The different eras of the universe are shown. The heat death will occur in around 1.7×10 106 years, if protons decay. [citation needed]
Beyond 10 2500 years if proton decay occurs, or 10 10 76 years without proton decay. Whatever event happens beyond this era is highly speculative. It is possible that a Big Rip event may occur far off into the future. [52] [53] This singularity would take place at a finite scale factor.
The heat death scenario is compatible with any of the three spatial models, but it requires that the universe reaches an eventual temperature minimum. [24] Without dark energy, it could occur only under a flat or hyperbolic geometry. With a positive cosmological constant, it could also occur in a closed universe.
Meth use by itself can cause heat stroke and death even when used at room temperature. The drug wreaks havoc with the body’s heat-regulation systems and spurs motion that generates internal heat.
Radiation can cause cancer in most parts of the body, in all animals, and at any age, although radiation-induced solid tumors usually take 10–15 years, and can take up to 40 years, to become clinically manifest, and radiation-induced leukemias typically require 2–9 years to appear.
Meanwhile, the cancer death rate is declining, the new findings show, falling by a third from 1991 to 2021. That translates to 4.1 million lives saved. ... Alcohol is also a cause of liver, head ...
Carla Gates said she's sure heat was a factor in her 66-year-old husband's death, even though she's still waiting for the autopsy report. When Eugene Gates died on June 20, the temperature was 98 ...
