Challenging Einstein’s simple universe.

“The standard cosmological model assumes that the Universe is uniform and looks the same in all directions when viewed on large scales. New research directly tests that assumption and finds evidence that the distribution of matter in the Universe does not fully align with this picture.

Einstein’s model of the simple universe requires adjustment. Even if the cosmic microwave background (CMB) seems homogeneous. In large size. We cannot leave the differences in the temperatures in the CMB without notice. But another thing is that. The universe seems lopsided. If another side of the universe is colder than the other, that causes energy flow into the lower energy side. This kind of energy lopsidedness can probably explain dark energy. 

There is a possibility that somewhere outside, or near the edge of the universe, is a quantum dot, some kind of thing that stretches the edge of the universe. This means that the outer edge of the universe could behave like some kind of amoeba. When that edge or standing wave moves outward. That causes the quantum low pressure at that point. This thing can cause a situation. 

“The local geometry of the universe is determined by whether the density parameter Ω is greater than, less than, or equal to 1. From top to bottom: a spherical universe with Ω > 1, a hyperbolic universe with Ω < 1, and a flat universe with Ω = 1. These depictions of two-dimensional surfaces are merely easily visualizable analogs to the 3-dimensional structure of (local) space.” (Wikipedia, Shape of the universe)

*********************

If Ω = 1, the universe is flat.

If Ω > 1, there is positive curvature.

If Ω < 1, there is negative curvature.

(Wikipedia, Shape of the universe)

*********************

That the energy starts to flow in the universe. The question is what causes the universe to stretch. If there is. Some kind of black hole. Outside the universe, it must be really enormous. A black hole outside the universe is impossible. The black hole should evaporate if it goes outside the universe. Another version is that. There can be some kind of bubble or cosmic supervoid in the hypothetical quantum field that surrounds the universe. If there is some kind of shockwave around the universe, that shockwave requires some kind of resistance. 

Without that resistance, the expansion of the universe could follow the de Sitter model. Or the modified de Sitter model. “A de Sitter universe is a cosmological solution to the Einstein field equations of general relativity, named after Willem de Sitter. “ (Wikipedia, De Sitter universe)

“It models the universe as spatially flat and neglects ordinary matter, so the dynamics of the universe are dominated by the cosmological constant, thought to correspond to dark energy in our universe or the inflaton field in the early universe. According to the models of inflation and current observations of the accelerating universe, the concordance models of physical cosmology are converging on a consistent model where our universe was best described as a de Sitter universe at about a time.” (Wikipedia, De Sitter universe)

The special event in the de Sitter universe is that. Its expansion is faster-than-light. The reason for that is that the scattering effect outside the universe is weaker. And that means a photon travels faster than it travels in the universe.  

“The exponential expansion of the scale factor means that the physical distance between any two non-accelerating observers will eventually be growing faster than the speed of light. At this point those two observers will no longer be able to make contact. Therefore, any observer in a de Sitter universe would have cosmological horizons beyond which that observer can never see nor learn any information. If our universe is approaching a de Sitter universe then eventually we will not be able to observe any galaxies other than our own Milky Way (and any others in the gravitationally bound Local Group, assuming they were to somehow survive to that time without merging)” (Wikipedia, De Sitter universe)

That means. The expansion of the universe in. The de Sitter model is faster than light. Without that resistance, the universe will collapse. In that model, nothing except gravity alone limits the speed of expansion of the universe. 

The cosmic supervoid could form. If lots of particles go outside the universe. Those elementary particles will evaporate or explode immediately. That forms the bubble in the quantum field that surrounds the universe. The reason. For. Why. We cannot see that the field is simple. If its energy level is lower than the universe’s minimum energy level. That means energy travels only in one direction. If there is a bubble. Their energy level is lower than the environment. That causes a situation. That energy field travels to that bubble, and it pulls the edge of the universe outward. 

But that requires. That. There is a quantum field outside the universe. This causes the idea. Maybe there are other universes. Or, logically. Thinking, there should be other universes. 

Do you know what the cosmic dipole anomaly is? That is the small difference between the cosmic microwave background (CMB), which uncovers that one half of the sky is cooler than the other. The difference between those temperatures is 1/1000 of a degree. Anyway, that difference is enough for energy to travel to the cooler side. Even the smallest possible difference between energy levels puts energy to move. 

This movement is not very fast, and those things might not have a meaning in the small-scale systems. But, in the universe’s scale systems. Those things have a different scale. When energy and material that the energy moves travel across the universe, the scale of the energy and material flow is so large that nothing can stop that energy and material flow. 

“The matter and CMB dipoles do not match up – the directions are consistent (top panel) but the amplitudes are not (bottom panel). Credit: Secrest et al., Reviews of Modern Physics 97 (2025) 041001” (ScitechDaily, Is the Universe Lopsided? New Evidence Challenges Einstein’s Simplest Universe)

Another problem is that. The matter and CMB dipoles have no match. Their directions are similar or the same. But the amplitudes have no match. This causes questions about the universe and its complex symmetry. But if the universe is asymmetrical. A structure that could look like a rugby ball, what could that thing mean? If another side of the universe is cooler than the other. That means that the point where the universe started might not be symmetrically in the middle of the universe. 

So if we want to compare that model with the Big Bang theory. That thing causes an interesting idea. What if the Big Bang was more like a Big Burst? In ordinary models, cosmologists think that the universe’s existence began in the Big Bang. The event or series of events that began in the middle of the universe. 

Could it be possible that the Big Bang happened on the other side of the universe? This means that the energy that formed the universe must come from the structure. That looks like a water tube. That is the one. And the simpler way. To try to model the asymmetry of the energy movement. The idea is that the energy. Or. wave movement, what the Big Bang released. Interacted with other fields. That thing caused the Schwinger effect. That turned the wave movement into particles.
