"'Brane-Storm' Challenges Part of Big Bang Theory"

Details of the Ekpyrotic Universe theory

Excerpt:

"In the ekpyrotic model, when the two three-dimensional worlds collide and "stick," the kinetic energy in the collision is converted to the quarks, electrons, photons, etc. that are confined to move along three dimensions. The resulting temperature is finite, so the hot Big Bang phase begins without a singularity. The universe is homogeneous because the collision and initiation of the Big Bang phase occurs nearly simultaneously everywhere." (emphasis added)
