False Vacuum Decay: Bubble Nucleation Lifetimes and Entropy Burst #shorts

Ajouté : 2026-05-23

[00:00:00]What if your universe could flip states in a blink, like a digital error, and nobody notices until it's already done?

[00:00:07]That's false vacuum decay. First, tiny bubbles randomly nucleate inside [music] the stable vacuum. Then one bubble grows faster than light signals can warn you, carving space into the lower energy phase. Now, here's the twist. The lifetime depends on quantum tunneling rates, so the clock is not exact. It's probabilistic. [music] And when the bubble expands, entropy surges, dumping energy into new particles and radiation.
