  1. P3 4.1 Galaxies C* Describe how the Universe changed after the Big Bang A* Explain how gravitational forces brought matter together to form structures like galaxies and stars. 100sec 100,000 years Energy! (gamma photons and neutrinos) 13 Too hot for matter to form

  2. P3 4.1 Galaxies Quarks and electrons form after 0.1sec C* Describe how the Universe changed after the Big Bang A* Explain how gravitational forces brought matter together to form structures like galaxies and stars. 100sec 100,000 years Energy! (gamma photons and neutrinos) 13 Too hot for matter to form

P3 4.1 Galaxies Quarks and electrons form after 0.1sec C* Describe how the Universe changed after the Big Bang A* Explain how gravitational forces brought matter together to form structures like galaxies and stars. 100sec 100,000 years Energy! (gamma photons and neutrinos) 13 Too hot for matter to form Plasma soup – universe is in a hot ionised state and is opaque Radiation de-couples from matter at 300,000 yrs. Background microwave energy is released. Universe becomes cold and dark except where gravity attracts uncharged atoms to form protostars fusing hydrogen to helium. Gravity pulls groups of stars together to form galaxies.

  5. Large stars go supernova and fuse the heavier elements which condense to form new stars and rings of debris which condense into planets Quarks and electrons form after 0.1sec 100sec 100,000 years Energy!

  7. Uncharged atoms don’t repel each other

  8. Uncharged atoms don’t repel each other During the dark age of the universe (first few billion years) gravity slowly pulled gas clouds of mainly hydrogen into clumps which formed stars and galaxies lighting up the universe.

  16. 90% of the mass of the universe is missing! Astronomers can measure the mass of galaxies but the number of stars in them is not enough to account for their rapid rotations. There are a few theories about where this mass is, including brown dwarf stars neutrinos and super massive black holes!
