M: Good evening and welcome to Physics Today. [5] Here we interview some of the greatest minds in physics as they help us to understand some of the most complicated theories. Today, I’ m very pleased to welcome Dr. Melissa Phillips, professor of theoretical physics. She’ s here to tell us a little about what it is she studies. Dr. Phillips, you seem to study everything.
W: [6] I guess that would be fair to say I spend most of my time studying the Big Bang Theory and where our universe came from.
M: Can you tell us a little about that?
W: [7] Well, I’ m very interested in why the universe exists at all. That may sound odd, but the fact is at the moment of the Big Bang, both matter and anti-matter were created for a short time, and I mean just a fraction of a second. The whole universe was a super hot soup of radiation filled with these particles. So what baffled scientists for so long is why is there a universe at all?
M: That’ s because matter and anti-matter are basically opposites of each other. They are exactly alike, except that they have opposite electrical charges. So when they collide, they destroy each other?
W: Exactly. So during the first few moments of the Big Bang, the universe was extremely hot and very small. Matter, and the now more exotic anti-matter, would have little space to avoid each other. This means that they should have totally wiped each other out, leaving the universe completely barren.
M: [8] But a recent study seems to point to the fact that when matter and anti-matter were first created, there were slightly more particles of matter, which allowed the universe we all live in to form?
W: Exactly. Because there was slightly more matter, the collisions quickly depleted all the anti-matter and left just enough matter to create stars, planets, and eventually us.
