Excellent series of lectures, I feel I now have some idea where the science in the documentaries comes from (even though my maths was creaking a bit by lecture 14 ;o)

i learnt today that original idea was flawed, it didn't propose scalar field:) i wonder why it matters 4 me cause i've no idea the fuck is going on:O it'd be more interesting while under narcotic influence of herb:))))))))

at@ 14:00 Professor Guth states that the change in energy equals the original energy density times the change in volume. This could only be true if the increase in volume were incremental. Otherwise, the energy density would be lower with increased volume.

At around 5:53, Prof. Guth says that there is no way that a particle here would tunnel at the same time as a particle over there. But couldn't they be entangled?
