Scientists reveal the “bubble of agony” … a painful end to the universe due to the “disintegration of the void”

Scientists have published in research journals a lot of theories that talk about the expected scenarios for the end of the world, all of which confirmed that the universe we live in has “some end and it is certain,” as all studies indicated.

The universe will end one day, but scientists are still arguing about how this will happen. One theory is that the world will end in “heat death”, a condition in which the universe becomes so cold that it is impossible for life on its planets.
Other hypothetical models predict that the universe will literally tear itself apart at the subatomic level in a process they call the “Great Rip,” driven by dark energy and the expansion of space.

New discovery reinforces ‘terrifying’ theory

New apocalyptic theories were given some credence in recent years after physicists discovered the elementary Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider in 2012.

The Large Hadron Collider, the Large Nuclear Accelerator or the Large Hadron Collider, is the largest particle accelerator and the highest energy and speed in the world, with a diameter of about 27 kilometers, and it is built underground at a depth of about 100 meters between France and Switzerland near Geneva.
The terrifying “Void Decay”

This new paradigm or new theory of the end is known as the cosmic “vacuum decay”, and some sometimes call it the “cosmic death bubble”.

According to this hypothetical scenario, there is instability in the so-called “Higgs field”, which extends across the entire universe.

According to the article published in the magazine “Express” under the title “A cosmologist explains the bubble of torment and the disintegration of the void – a terrifying end of the world scenario”, if something goes wrong in this field, some scientists expect that the results will be completely catastrophic for the universe.

Cosmologist Katie Mack described this hypothetical scenario in an interview on “FQXi”, as part of her promotion of the book she launched under the title “The End of Everything” (spoken in astrophysics), where the book covers all the different ways that scientists today believe the universe can to end because of it.

“Void dissolution is in a way the most humane of the ways the universe can come out because you won’t see it coming, so you don’t have to be afraid of it, you won’t feel it happening and there won’t be tragic consequences, everything will simply be done,” Dr. Mack said.

“The idea behind the vacuum decay is that there is some possibility that the Higgs field, this type of energy field that spreads throughout all of space, is not stable, because it is linked to the Higgs Boson by a set of rules of particle physics.”

Scientists believe that the Higgs field and the Higgs boson interact with other particles, such as electrons or quarks, to give them mass. If the Higgs field is unstable, the value of the field may change in some part of the universe.

If this happened, the change would spread outward at the speed of light, in what Dr. Mack described as a “bubble of doom.” This bubble will completely change the universe and rearrange the universe in a different way, but it will lead to the destruction of all life.

And the cosmologist continues: “While (the change in the value of the field) spreads outward and collides with things, it puts everything that exists in space and the universe within different physical laws, where the particles will no longer be coherent, “and maybe everything collapses inside the bubble and turns black.” Like a black hole.”

“It’s a real big mess and it’s an idea that’s been around for a while, that the Higgs vacuum may be unstable,” the expert asserts.

The vacuum we live in is “false,” but what will happen is a “catastrophic vacuum.”

The expert indicated that what we feel today is just a “false vacuum”, and that when this happens, we will witness a transformation into the “real vacuum”, where “the laws of physics are all different and we all die.”

“Technically, if this is going to happen, it could happen at any time and that’s one of the things that makes it interesting to think about,” Dr. Mack said.
“Bubble doom” will put an end to the world, but its chances are slim

The expert points out that “the kind of bubble doom that forms somewhere in space and destroys us all” probably won’t happen right now, and that “the chances of this happening are so small that they are almost non-existent”.

Some scientists estimate that it will take another 20-30 billion years for this to happen, about twice the age of the current universe.

In his two-part film, on the life of the universe, Professor Brian Cox, TV presenter and particle physicist, said: “The timescale of vacuum decay is many times the age of our universe, so it won’t happen tomorrow, but it’s still troubling to think that our universe Not the stable, eternal home we thought it was.”
