Study claims an ‘anti-universe’ where time is backwards may exist next to ours

The wild principle may imply the presence of darkish matter in our universe is not so mysterious in any case.

An “anti-universe” the place time runs backwards may exist subsequent to ours, in accordance with a brand new research.

The speculation entails the very fact nature has basic symmetries and researchers suppose this might apply to the universe as an entire.

The speculation has been defined in the journal Annals of Physics.

It discusses a typical physics idea referred to as Cost, Parity, Time (CPT) symmetry.

CPT symmetry is acknowledged as one of many legal guidelines of physics and means issues like cost and time could be inverted after a transformative course of.

Scientists suppose the Huge Bang, which created the universe, was undoubtedly transformative and due to this fact the CPT principle may apply.

The researchers suppose that there was a ‘backwards universe’ earlier than the Huge Bang that was then inverted to create the universe we dwell in at the moment.

They defined: “We examine the concept that the universe earlier than the Huge Bang is the CPT reflection of the universe after the bang, each classically and quantum mechanically.”

And, added: “The universe earlier than the bang and the universe after the bang could also be considered as a universe/anti-universe pair, rising straight into the new, radiation-dominated period we observe in our previous.

“This, in flip, results in a remarkably economical clarification of the cosmological darkish matter.”

The wild principle may imply the presence of darkish matter in our universe isn’t so mysterious in any case.

The scientists suggest darkish matter is definitely made up of a kind of ghostly particle referred to as right-handed neutrinos.

Neutrino particles are current in our universe however they solely spin to the left.

Scientists suppose it’s odd that they haven’t discovered a model that spins to the fitting because the legal guidelines of physics counsel they need to be on the market.

The researchers suppose the fitting spinning particles could possibly be invisible in our universe and will simply be represented by darkish matter.

Little is thought about darkish matter within the universe aside from it can't be seen however does have a bodily impact on different objects.

Researchers suppose investigating neutrino particles and darkish matter additional may doubtlessly be a step in proving the ‘anti-universe’ principle.

Scientists don’t suppose we’d be capable to go to the proposed ‘anti-universe’ as a result of it technically occurred earlier than the Huge Bang.
