10、宇宙大爆炸学说。他认为：我们所观测到的宇宙始于学说。他认为：我们所观测到的宇宙始于150亿前的一亿前的一次爆炸事件。次爆炸事件。 爆炸之初，宇宙是一个极度高温、高密度的爆炸之初，宇宙是一个极度高温、高密度的“辐辐射地狱射地狱”，物质只能以中子、质子、电子、光子和中微，物质只能以中子、质子、电子、光子和中微子等基本粒子形态存在。宇宙爆炸之后不断膨胀，导致子等基本粒子形态存在。宇宙爆炸之后不断膨胀，导致温度和密度很快下降。随着温度的下降，逐步形成原子温度和密度很快下降。随着温度的下降，逐步形成原子核、原子、分子，并复合成通常的气体。气体逐渐凝聚核、原子、分子，并复合成通常的气体。气体逐渐凝聚成星云

11、，星云进一步形成各种各样的恒星和星系，形成成星云，星云进一步形成各种各样的恒星和星系，形成现在我们所看到的宇宙。现在我们所看到的宇宙。 宇宙大爆炸学说的主要证据宇宙大爆炸学说的主要证据 (1) 星系距离越远，退行速度越大（红移）星系距离越远，退行速度越大（红移） (2) 3K宇宙微波背景辐射（宇宙微波背景辐射（1978年诺贝尔物理奖）年诺贝尔物理奖） (3) 宇宙氦丰度（宇宙氦丰度（76%的氢和的氢和24%的氦）的氦） 从从19481948年伽莫夫建立热大爆炸的观念以来，通过年伽莫夫建立热大爆炸的观念以来，通过几十年的努力，为我们勾画出这样一部宇宙历几十年的努力，为我们勾画出这样一部宇宙历史史

12、：大爆炸开始时大爆炸开始时 150200亿年前，极小体积，极高亿年前，极小体积，极高密度，极高温度。密度，极高温度。 大爆炸后大爆炸后10-43秒秒 宇宙从量子背景出现。宇宙从量子背景出现。 大爆炸后大爆炸后10-35秒秒 同一场分解为强力、电弱力和引同一场分解为强力、电弱力和引力。力。 大爆炸后大爆炸后10-5秒秒 10万亿度，质子和中子形成。万亿度，质子和中子形成。 大爆炸后大爆炸后0.01秒秒 1000亿度，光子、电子、中微子为亿度，光子、电子、中微子为主，质子中子仅占主，质子中子仅占10亿分之一，热平衡态，体系急亿分之一，热平衡态，体系急剧膨胀，温度和密度不断下降。剧膨胀，温度和密度不

13、断下降。 大爆炸后大爆炸后0.1秒后秒后 300亿度，中子质子比从亿度，中子质子比从1.0下降下降到到0.61。 大爆炸后大爆炸后1秒后秒后 100亿度，中微子向外逃逸，亿度，中微子向外逃逸，正负电子湮没反应出现，核力尚不足束缚中正负电子湮没反应出现，核力尚不足束缚中子和质子。子和质子。 大爆炸后大爆炸后13.8秒后秒后 30亿度，氘、氦类稳定原亿度，氘、氦类稳定原子核（化学元素）形成。子核（化学元素）形成。 大爆炸后大爆炸后35分钟后分钟后 3亿度，核过程停止，尚亿度，核过程停止，尚不能形成中性原子。不能形成中性原子。 大爆炸后大爆炸后30万年后万年后 3000度，化学结合作用使度，化学结合
