I hedge and flounder all the time

Astronomers Hedge on Big Bang Detection Claim

A group of astronomers who announced in March that they had detected space-time disturbances — gravitational waves — from the beginning of the Big Bang reaffirmed their claim on Thursday but conceded that dust from the Milky Way galaxy might have interfered with their observations.

The original announcement, heralding what the astronomers said could be “a new era” in cosmology, astounded and exhilarated scientists around the world. At a splashy news conference on March 17 at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Mass., the talk quickly turned to multiple universes and Nobel Prizes.

But even as reporters and scientists were gathering there, others convened on Facebook and elsewhere to pick apart the findings. What ensued was a rare example of the scientific process — sharp elbows, egos and all — that played out the last three months.

If the findings are indeed true, the detection of those gravitational waves would confirm a theory that the universe began with a violent outward antigravitational swoosh known as inflation — a notion that would explain the uniformity of the heavens, among other mysteries, and put physicists in touch with quantum forces that prevailed when the universe was only a trillionth of a trillionth of a second old. The idea once seemed like science fiction, but the astronomers’ findings put it almost in reach...

Floundering and hedging is all part of the game of puzzles. Think nothing of it, it is still great work. Big bang rest on the idea that a flat vacuum becomes Higgs, almost immediately. But immediately is a short time for the sudden appearance of a flat vacuum. One has to imagine that the universe managed to get stuck in a giant, spectral mode one fuzz ball of a graviton. But that is still relative.  Any fuzz ball is still sphere packing, not matter that is is a Gaussian ball. And that means Either they do not have three spheres, or they are at Phi^17, a total of 3700 bubbles or so. There is no other mode below Lagrange one, noise falls linear with signal, you have no containment. So they need at least three bubble sizes to start.

The other solution is to assume a fourth order moment inside the bubbles themselves, and this gives us the multi-verse, a complex wave motion between universes. But we are running out of Lagrange, they have a limit at three. But given the 10E34 year life time of the proton, one can imagine they have obtained it, and enough slip over the horizon to start the new universe. These escapees are enough to just flatten our universe, allowing more to escape until we are just a quant 17 bunch of fuzz balls.
