Simulating the concept of the multiverse
PHOTOGRAPHED WITH CURIOUSMATRIX
All existing cosmological theories agree that our universe is expanding at an unprecedented rate. However, this phenomenon remains a great mystery, and not all scientists believe that the cause stems from dark energy.
In a report published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics , a team of researchers from the University of Copenhagen (Denmark) and the Tokyo Institute of Technology (Japan) proposed a new hypothesis to explain the phenomenon.
Accordingly, they argue that our universe is simply devouring parallel "sub-universes," and is therefore constantly expanding.
The report's author, Jan Ambjørn, a physicist at the University of Copenhagen, explains: "Our research efforts have discovered an accelerating expansion of the universe that can perhaps be explained simply and intuitively: our universe is simply accumulating sub-universes."
While the idea of other universes interacting with ours is not new, the research led by Ambjørn has developed a mathematical model to understand the hypothetical impact of this on the evolution of our universe.
The calculations suggest that merging with other universes could increase the volume of our universe, which, based on current measurements, appears to be expanding faster.
