  2. Cyclic model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_model

    A cyclic model (or oscillating model) is any of several cosmological models in which the universe follows infinite, or indefinite, self-sustaining cycles. For example, the oscillating universe theory briefly considered by Albert Einstein in 1930 theorized a universe following an eternal series of oscillations, each beginning with a Big Bang and ending with a Big Crunch; in the interim, the ...

  3. Conformal cyclic cosmology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_cyclic_cosmology

    Conformal cyclic cosmology (CCC) is a cosmological model in the framework of general relativity and proposed by theoretical physicist Roger Penrose. [1] [2] [3] In CCC, the universe iterates through infinite cycles, with the future timelike infinity (i.e. the latest end of any possible timescale evaluated for any point in space) of each previous iteration being identified with the Big Bang ...

    Eliminating the angular velocity dθ/dt from this radial equation, [47] ¨ = +. which is the equation of motion for a one-dimensional problem in which a particle of mass μ is subjected to the inward central force −dV/dr and a second outward force, called in this context the (Lagrangian) centrifugal force (see centrifugal force#Other uses of ...

  5. Cycles of Time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycles_of_Time

    Cycles of Time: An Extraordinary New View of the Universe is a science book by mathematical physicist Roger Penrose published by The Bodley Head in 2010. The book outlines Penrose's Conformal Cyclic Cosmology (CCC) model, which is an extension of general relativity but opposed to the widely supported multidimensional string theories and cosmological inflation following the Big Bang.

  6. Rabi cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabi_cycle

    Rabi flopping refers to the spin flipping within a quantum system containing a spin-1/2 particle and an oscillating magnetic field. We split the magnetic field into a constant 'environment' field, and the oscillating part, so that our field looks like = + = + (⁡ + ⁡ ()) where and are the strengths of the environment and the oscillating fields respectively, and is the frequency at which the ...

    The energy quantization condition obtained by solving Schrödinger's equation reads, for example, = (+), = / for free electrons (in vacuum) or = (+), = for electrons in graphene, where =,,, …. Although the derivation of these results is not difficult, there is an alternative way of deriving them, which offers in some respect better physical ...

  8. Mathematical formulation of the Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_formulation...

    Physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) refers to the theoretical developments needed to explain the deficiencies of the Standard Model, such as the inability to explain the fundamental parameters of the standard model, the strong CP problem, neutrino oscillations, matter–antimatter asymmetry, and the nature of dark matter and dark energy. [15]

  9. Weyl curvature hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weyl_curvature_hypothesis

    The Weyl curvature hypothesis, which arises in the application of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity to physical cosmology, was introduced by the British mathematician and theoretical physicist Roger Penrose in an article in 1979 [1] in an attempt to provide explanations for two of the most fundamental issues in physics.
