Jan 8, 2021 · Alan Guth, who began developing the theory in 1979, wrote in his book The Inflationary Universe that “the standard Big Bang theory says nothing about what banged, why it banged, or what happened...
Mar 20, 2014 · The New York Times’ Dennis Overbye explores Professor Alan Guth’s theory of inflation in the wake of the discovery of gravitational waves from the seconds after the Big Bang occurred. The discovery appears to confirm Guth’s findings.
Inflation was first proposed by Alan Guth in 1979 while investigating the problem of why no magnetic monopoles are seen today; he found that a positive-energy false vacuum would, according to general relativity, generate an exponential expansion of space. It was very quickly realised that such an expansion would resolve many other long-standing ...
Dec 6, 2011 · Alan Guth: Cosmology is the study of the history and large-scale structure of the universe, and my own niche in cosmology is the very early universe—the first small fraction of a second...

THE BIG BANG THEORYtraces its roots to the calculations of Alexan- der Friedmann, who showed in 1922 that the equations of general rela- tivityallow an expanding solution that starts from a singularity. The evidence for the big bang is now overwhelming.
Alan Guth proposes cosmic inflation. To improve on the big bang theory, in 1980 astrophysicist Alan Guth of MIT, Andrei Linde of Stanford University and Alexei Starobinsky of the Landau...
