    The document discusses the cosmic origin of elements. It describes the Big Bang theory, which proposes that the universe began as an infinitely dense point that rapidly expanded. During this inflation, pairs of matter and antimatter were formed from energy but annihilated each other. As the universe continued expanding and cooling, the simplest elements like hydrogen and helium were formed. Later, heavier elements were created through nuclear fusion in stars and supernova explosions. The document establishes that stars and supernovae played important roles in the formation of heavier elements after the initial production of light elements during the Big Bang.

    Cosmic Origin Of Elements

    COSMOLOGY - as the study of how the universe


    began, how it continues to exist and how it will
    end.

    Big bang Theory/Model


    Ÿ Astronomers George Lemaitre and Edwin Hubble
    were some of its first proponents.

    Several Limitations and Misconceptions


    Ÿ Big Bang refers to the very start of the whole
    process called the Big Bang Model
    Ÿ The Big Bang was not an explosion that carried
    matter outward from a point. It refers to the rapid
    inflation of space itself.

    STAGES OF BIG BANG


    STAGE 1. The Universe may have begun as an
    infinite

    STAGE 2. All of it then began to rapidly


    expand in a process known as inflation. Space
    itself expanded faster than the speed of light. In
    this still hoy and dense mass of the universe, pairs
    of matter and antinatter (quarks and antiquarks)
    were formed from energy, but these pairs
    cancelled each other back into energy
    (annhilation).
    2. The relative abundance of He and H did not
    change much until today.

    What is a chemical element


    Is a building block of matter. It is composed of a
    single kind atom.
