  • 03:05: We assumed that there’s a fixed but unknown probability that a bubble universe will form in any given volume of inflating space.
  • 00:06: But just how many bubble universes does the eternally inflating multiverse contain?
  • 00:34: But in the eternal inflation picture, ours is just one among uncountable bubble universes.
  • 02:18: Some questions spring to mind: - I mean, besides “What?!?” For example, how many bubble universes can be made this way?
  • 02:52: ... challenge question I asked you to calculate the RELATIVE number of new bubble universes that formed in one second compared to the previous ...
  • 03:21: So the rate at which that volume is increasing is the same as the rate at which bubble universes multiply.
  • 04:44: And our number of new bubble universes should multiply by the same insane factor each second.
  • 05:33: Here’s another one: do all of these bubble universes the same laws of physics, or could they be wildly different from each other?
  • 06:43: Here’s a possible explanation: what different bubble universes can end up with different vacuum energies?
  • 06:51: ... vacuum energies like ours might be extremely rare, but there are so many bubble universes that at least some will have a low enough cosmological constant for life ...
  • 11:29: He proposes that there may be something off in the logic of weighing up probabilities over bubble universes.
  • 14:43: Alexander has been traveling the bubble universes for many years, supporting local youtube space shows where he finds them.
  • 03:21: So the rate at which that volume is increasing is the same as the rate at which bubble universes multiply.

2019-08-26: How To Become an Astrophysicist + Challenge Question!

  • 10:46: ... extra credit question at that rate How close to our universe would a new bubble universe need to form in order for the two bubbles to ...
  • 08:59: ... process goes on forever but inflation also has a beginning. So how many bubble universes exist ...
  • 10:46: ... new universe forming in any given volume of space So every second many bubble universes are forming across the great sir Eternally, inflating space-time and ...

2019-08-06: What Caused the Big Bang?

  • 12:49: eternally - Only stopping in patches where a bubble universe forms. And once started, inflation should produce infinite such universes.

2019-07-18: Did Time Start at the Big Bang?

  • 09:52: ... We'll get to the nitty-gritty of that with its inflow tongs and bubble universes real soon There are also various cyclic universe options the first ...

2017-06-21: Anti-Matter and Quantum Relativity

  • 13:12: ... username asks whether colliding universes in the bubble universe scenario means that we redefine "universe" to be the bounded ...
  • 13:34: But this bubble universe idea does suggest a greater universe beyond our bubble.
  • 13:12: ... username asks whether colliding universes in the bubble universe scenario means that we redefine "universe" to be the bounded post-inflationary ...
  • 13:50: Galdo145 asks whether bubble universes with different vacuum energies would convert to the lower energy state after colliding?

2017-06-07: Supervoids vs Colliding Universes!

  • 09:22: This can happen spontaneously anywhere in the greater inflating space time, resulting in bubble universes.
  • 09:37: But regardless, in an infinitely inflating space time, collisions between bubble universes are eventually expected.
  • 09:45: So what happens when two bubble universes collide?
