Origin of Universe
• Big Bang Theory
Universe began 13.7 billion years ago . At that time all matters was in one place at a single instant
which is known as point of singularity. This term described that large amount of matter gathered
at a single point in space time. At the Big Bang there was a huge expansion of matter ,an
expansion that has continued ever since .
Between 10-50 & 10-30 after Big Bang there was particularly rapid expansion of universe , known as
Inflation of universe and represent the first burst of growth of Universe. When the universe old ,
temperature were of the order of 10 billion degrees. At the point of universe permitted with
radiation and sub atomic particles (quark and lepton).when the universe was few minutes old the
temperature were about 1 million degrees, protons and neutrons formed the atomic nuclei
leading to production of primordial H, He ions. This charges particles form a state of matter
called plasma state. The evolution of the Universe occurred several hundred million years later
when stars began to form from large clouds of hydrogen and helium gas, which eventually
evolved into clusters of galaxies each of which contained hundreds of billions of stars.
