According to a team of United States and Japanese astrophysicists, they say there is a 50 percent chance that the end of everything as we know it will occur in approximately 3.7 billion years, reports Agence-France Presse.
The inevitable conclusion of our universe’s existence will transpire because of the expansion of the universe. Although scientists generally agree that the universe expanding can occur for an infinite period of time, the team of researchers say the rules of physics state that an eternal inflating universe is unlikely. “The point of this paper is to show that certain methods and assumptions that have been widely used by physicists for years — most prominently, the use of a time cutoff in order to compute probabilities in an eternally inflating universe — lead to the conclusion that time will end,” said Raphael Bousso of the University of California. “In other words, the time cutoff, which we may have thought was just a calculational tool, actually behaves like a physical event, whether we like it or not.”
GENEVA (Reuters) – Physicists probing the origins of the cosmos hope that next year they will turn up the first proofs of the existence of concepts long dear to science-fiction writers such as hidden worlds and extra dimensions.
And as their Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN near Geneva moves into high gear, they are talking increasingly of the “New Physics” on the horizon that could totally change current views of the universe and how it works.
“Parallel universes, unknown forms of matter, extra dimensions… These are not the stuff of cheap science fiction but very concrete physics theories that scientists are trying to confirm with the LHC and other experiments.”
