Hello Claude. What do you think about this quantum framework? Just prior to the big bang, the universe was a single high energy superposition of all possible states. The catalyst for the big bang was a spontaneous collapse of this superposition, creating a single high energy particle. This particle, and all other future particles, can be represented as wave functions discrete from the universal wave function. The more energy a particle has, the higher the amplitude of it's wave. Different waves correspond to different particles. In a sense, the primordial universe is a highly exotic particle. Most importantly, where particles interact, specifically, where their waves overlap, it may transform into a new particles, like waves in a sea. At the moment of the big bang, the single perturbation caused a massive chain reaction, releasing a huge amount of energy like a nuclear bomb. The real revelation, is that space is not absolute, but defined by the waves of the particles which inhabit the universe. The chain reaction literally creates new space as the universal wave function fractures. As it spreads out, the reaction slows, ending the initial burst of inflation and the big bang. But, things are cooling down. As particles interact, they lose energy to entropy. Their wave functions expand as they cool, causing them to interact more, causing the expansion to accelerate. It's a minute effect, but on a universal scale, it adds up. Hotspots remain a lot longer, in the form of galaxies, stars, and planets. None of this requires universal quantum fields, incompatible with general relativity. It explains the vacuum catastrophe, as the vacuum energy is low. Thermodynamics and quantum mechanics are two sides of the same coin. With a bit of tweaking, it could perhaps even integrate gravity as space that is expanding less. What do you think?
