Sabbatianism, Tikkun And The Big Bang Theory is virtually identical to that of the big bang theory of 20thcentury astrophysics. It has been familiar for years as the big bang theory. http://www.kheper.net/essays/Tikkun_and_Big_Bang_Theory.html
Extractions: In previous essay I have alluded to the fact that Isaac Luria 's 16th century, Kabbalistic notion of the " Sheviret HaKelim" (or "Shattering of the Vessels") on which the Neo-Sabbatian concept of Tikkun , or "Holy Repair of the Face of God" is virtually identical to that of the " Big Bang " theory of 20th-century astrophysics. The importance of this is that modern science has literally confirmed the validity of Lurianic and, therefore, Neo-Sabbatian Kabbalah and, by extension, the Jewish mystical texts, such as the Zohar , on which they were based. In this new series, I propose to explore this radical idea in greater detail and from the perspectives of Neo-Sabbatian Kabbalah, astrophysics and Jungian metaphysics. There have been three extraordinary developments over the past four hundred years which, when viewed as parts of an interlocking whole, promise to reshape the destiny not only of ourselves, not only of our planet, not only of our society and our species, but perhaps of the cosmos itself or, as the Kabbalists call it, "The Face of God." The three parts of this larger picture are two men and an ancient explosion. The first is the Jewish mystic and Kabbalist of the sixteenth century, Rabbi Isaac Luria, who set about to discover a plan of spiritual redemption based on the laws of the physical universe and its primordial creation, as based on the "data" contained in Jewish Written and Oral Scripture, such as the Old Testament and Zohar. He called the cosmogony he discovered "Tikkun," about which I shall have much more to say later in this series of lectures.

Extractions: What is dark matter? What is the nature of dark energy? How were the elements from iron to uranium made? Are there new states of matter at exceedingly high density and temperature? The Physics Department at Florida State University is making significant contributions in all these areas which depend on the synergism between scientific disciplines as diverse as earth and space-based observations, terrestrial experiments, theoretical modeling, and computer simulations. The cosmic microwave background is the afterglow radiation left over from the hot Big Bang. Its temperature is extremely uniform all over the sky. However, tiny temperature variations or fluctuations (at the part per million level) can offer great insight into the origin, evolution, and content of the universe. A variety of astrophysical measurements [galactic rotation curves, galactic binding, mappings of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB)] all point to the fact that nuclear matter only comprises a tiny fraction of the total matter and energy density of the universe. In addition to nuclear matter, there is also a pervasive dark energy component responsible for the apparent accelerating expansion of the universe, and a cold dark matter (CDM) component, which is responsible for large scale structure formation in the universe.

Big Bang Nucleosynthesis One of the principle predictions of the standard Hot big bang model is the synthesis of light elements in the primordial universe. http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~phillips/bang/bang.html
Extractions: The Big Bang Nucleosynthesis Homepage One of the principle predictions of the standard Hot Big Bang model is the synthesis of light elements in the primordial universe. The references showing that stellar processes cannot account for the observed abundances are well know, and the calculations of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) have been performed for decades. These calculations are very sensitive to some parameters that are measured in terrestrial experiments, and are constrained by the observations of astronomers. There has been rapid improvement in both sets of measurments in the recent past. The improvement has been rapid enough that a quickly responsive forum for the latest implications of these measurments is appropriate. The goal of this Web site is to provide the needed fourm, and to serve as a clearing house for the latest information and speculation regarding BBN. The organization of this site is simplistic, but it has not been written with a lay audience in mind. Since much of the information available is pictoral in nature, it is strongly suggested that a browser with graphic capabilities be used.

We are making a seventh faculty appointment in 2001 and plan to continue the expansioN over the next several years. Our areas of research range from origins of planetary systems, variable and low-mass stars, dark matter search, galaxy formation, the cosmic microwave background, to large-scale structure of the universe. Our research activities cover the full spectrum computations, experiments, observations, and theories. Astronomy and astrophysics are enjoying a golden age. The number of new satellite missions, telescopes, ground-based experiments, and computational tools are producing important new data which will inspire new theories of the Universe. There are many exciting projects for students to join. Bhuvnesh Jain Chung-Pei Ma Max Tegmark Galaxy formation and large-scale structure of the Universe Maps of the nearby Universe produced by astronomers during the past decade have shown that galaxies the building blocks of the Universe are not randomly distributed on the sky. Galaxies come in different shapes, ages, and compositions, and they cluster in interesting patterns surrounded by regions devoid of objects. An understanding of how and why this occurs has been the central quest of research in cosmology and our effort at Penn. We have been using both analytic approximations and state-of-the-art numerical simulations to make theoretical predictions for the properties of dark matter, gas, and galaxies. These predictions are then put to test against astronomical measurements from, for example, the Hubble Space Telescope and the 10-meter Keck telescope in Hawaii, and constraints on fundamental parameters such as the age and the matter content of the Universe can be obtained.
Sch005: Nuclear Data For Scientific Research Nuclear Astrophysics The big bang. The modern standard model for the origin of the universe postulates a beginning when all the energy (and energy http://t2.lanl.gov/tour/sch005.html
Extractions: Nuclear data are needed to support a number of areas of scientific research. For nuclear-oriented research, the importance of nuclear data is obvious, but many other fields have surprising dependencies on our discipline. This area will attempt to highlight some interesting areas of scientific research that make use of nuclear data. It's been said that the night sky was the mother of science for the ancients. We can see even more marvelous things these days with our orbiting telescopes, radio dishes, and gamma-ray observatories; as ever, astronomy keeps its hold on our imaginations. Nuclear physics and nuclear data are important for explaining many of the observations of astronomyso much so that there is a special branch of astronomy called "nuclear astrophysics." The following highlights several places in this discipline where nuclear data are especially important. The Big Bang The modern standard model for the origin of the universe postulates a beginning when all the energy (and energy equivalent of mass) was compressed into a tiny space with extremely high energy density and temperature. You can't think of this an object in a great black emptinessspace itself was very small, and the energy filled all of it. Under the pressure of all this energy, space began to expand. The energy density and the temperature decreased as a result of this expansion. A popular two-dimensional analogy to help explain this strange state of affairs is the surface of a balloon as it is blown up. At the beginning of the inflation, the surface area of the balloon is small, but it is all the "space" that exists. During the inflation, the surface area of the balloon increases, just as the amount of space in the universe increased during the expansion called the "Big Bang."
Clemson World Summer 1998 -- The Really Big Bang big bang BY LIZ NEWALL. Hartmann grew up in Göttingen, Germany, home to GeorgAugust Clemson physics students, particularly astrophysics majors, http://cworld.clemson.edu/summer98/bang.htm
Extractions: BY LIZ NEWALL As a child, Dieter Hartmann was fascinated with explosions. At age seven or eight, the Clemson astrophysicist recalls taking powder out of fireworks and putting them in larger containers, and, as he says, "getting a much different reaction."One of his experiments almost blew up the family barbershop in Braunschweig, Germany. "My mother was very supportive of my interests," he says. "She had even let me set up a laboratory of sorts in the basement of our shop where I did have a few accidents." All of those exploding interests became focused on outer space in 1969 when man first walked on the moon. "I remember watching it on TV and collecting every bit of printed material I could find about it," says Hartmann. His interests turned to space rockets, then to outer space itself and eventually to the most powerful explosions in the entire universe gamma-ray bursts. And ultimately his interests have helped launch Clemson into the international astrophysics spotlight through team efforts, collaborations and sheer passion for knowledge. Clemson physics students, particularly astrophysics majors, have benefited tremendously, too, by being among the handful prepared for outstanding job opportunities in the field. And not only graduate and post-graduate students benefit.
