And it may have started during the first 300,000 years after the Big Bang. 🤓
Early dark energy might be found via a 'strong signal' in the Big Bang's afterglow
Both studies revealed the detection of what might be the first traces of this mysterious"early dark energy" present in data gathered from 2013 to 2016 by the Chile-based Atacama Cosmology Telescope . While the findings are as of writing only at the preprint stage and require peer review for confirmation, they might solveabout the early universe and data collected surrounding it that seems incompatible with the rate of cosmic expansions witnessed today.
One of the preprints was shared by the ACT team of researchers, and the other one came from an independent group, but they both concede that the new data has yet to reach a level of certainty to assure the existence of early dark energy with scientific confidence. But this could be remedied with further observations from the ACT, in addition to another observatory, the South Pole Telescope , which might offer a more thorough test.
Early dark energy, if it's real, wouldn't have possessed the strength to cause accelerated expansion of the universe. Not in the way"typical" dark energy does. But early dark energy surely would have forced the plasma that emerged from the Big Bang to cool more rapidly than it would have without it.
about the universe, and its origins, and the new pair of studies are only the latest testament to this fact.Stay ahead with the latest science, technology and innovation news, for free:
