  2. Particle horizon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_horizon

    The particle horizon (also called the cosmological horizon, the comoving horizon (in Scott Dodelson's text), or the cosmic light horizon) is the maximum distance from which light from particles could have traveled to the observer in the age of the universe.

  3. Cosmological horizon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_horizon

    The particle horizon, also called the cosmological horizon, the comoving horizon, or the cosmic light horizon, is the maximum distance from which light from particles could have traveled to the observer in the age of the universe. It represents the boundary between the observable and the unobservable regions of the universe, so its distance at ...

  4. Shape of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_of_the_universe

    Comoving spacetime diagram of our flat universe. Particle horizon: green, Hubble radius: blue, Event horizon: purple, Light cone: orange. Hyperbolic universe with the same radiation and matter density parameters as ours, but without dark energy. Closed universe without dark energy and with overcritical density, which leads to a Big Crunch ...

  5. Horizon problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizon_problem

    The horizon problem (also known as the homogeneity problem) is a cosmological fine-tuning problem within the Big Bang model of the universe. It arises due to the difficulty in explaining the observed homogeneity of causally disconnected regions of space in the absence of a mechanism that sets the same initial conditions everywhere.

  6. Horizon (general relativity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizon_(general_relativity)

    Event horizon, a boundary in spacetime beyond which events cannot affect the observer, thus referring to a black hole's boundary and the boundary of an expanding universe; Apparent horizon, a surface defined in general relativity; Cauchy horizon, a surface found in the study of Cauchy problems; Cosmological horizon, a limit of observability

  7. As detailed in their paper, Saha and Sinha combined two existing ideas from math and science: the Feynman diagram of particle scattering and the Euler beta function for scattering in string theory ...

  8. Kruskal–Szekeres coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal–Szekeres_coordinates

    This is just an artifact of how Schwarzschild coordinates are defined; a free-falling particle will only take a finite proper time (time as measured by its own clock) to pass between an outside observer and an event horizon, and if the particle's world line is drawn in the Kruskal–Szekeres diagram this will also only take a finite coordinate ...
