Wave-like Universe
// Philosophy and Culture.
2009. ¹ 7.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=56787
Abstract:
The case of the first elementary particles formation proves that expansion of the Universe has a wave-like nature. Formation of elementary singularities (maximons) once stopped the Universe from further expansion. Such a point of view corresponds to the philosophical conception saying that infinite objects (including infinite Universe) just cannot be real.
