Part 2! What was going in the very early universe? How does inflation provide the seeds of larger structures? How can we possibly test this?
Part 1! What are some weaknesses with the standard Big Bang model? What are the horizon and flatness problems? How does accelerated expansion solve these?
What is the cosmological constant? How is the expansion of the universe related to quantum fields? How does a vacuum energy produce accelerated expansion?
What is a quantum state? How can two particles share the same state? What is entanglement, and does it really allow for faster-than-light communication?
Were the dark ages really dark? What is a perturbation, and how did they grow in the early universe? When the first stars awoke, what happened?
