SCEPTICAL LOOK AT MY THEORY-JUSTIN LEIGHTON

Thermodynamics would not reverse in a crunch imo. Time will still be
going forward, simply decreasing volume with the same energy, thus
entropy would decrease to zero at the start point, while temperatures
ironically rise. At the moment the singularity exists, temperature
(defined as the motion of particles) would be zero and therefore
entropy (total degrees of motion) of the system will reduce to zero.

In expansion phases, entropy will continue to increase as average
temperature falls, total energy remaining unchanged. (more complex
systems have greater entropy)

Since the temperature is falling, and the acceleration will be proven
to be powered by galactic evolution, the expansion will turn from
speeding to slowing, just as slope does that half way up a sin wave.
That is because the "dark energy" (virtual particles) will begin to
decrease in density,  the virtual particle density being lowest toward
the center. That will be the apex of the sin wave, and the point of
maximum entropy (most complex energy forms).

As the dark energy becomes depleted from central regions. the inward
acceleration will begin due to the dark matter and energy (virtual
paticles). With the overall size of the universe decreasing,  the
total energy and temperature climb toward infinity, while entropy
falls. Again the system crosses the crunch point and exists with no
informational states. This ocurs because in a singularity, no
information can by definition exist. Two particles must be compared to
derive what we call data or information.


What causes the particles to arise is beyond me. I have a hunch that a
superluminal particle condenses the instant after the big bang. If the
particle is able orbit another particle, it could give rise to quarks,
photons etc. The establishment tends to claim that dark energy and
matter accounted for much of the early universe along with photons.
Matter seems to srt of evolve from the dark matter and energy.
