In the SM the Higgs mass is a huge problem: The calculation of the Higgs mass results in a sum of many terms
Each term can be as large as the Plank scale (1019 GeV)
Terms can be positive or negative, and may cancel if the constants of nature involved (masses of all other particles) allow it
Miraculous cancelations are needed to keep the Higgs mass ~ 125 GeV
Higgs and hierarchy problem
This is known as the hierarchy problem

There are three "sets" of quark pairs and lepton pairs, called generations.
The generations increase in mass.
Higher generation particles decay into lower generation particles.
We do not know why there are three generations.
We do not have an explanation for the observed mass pattern
Three generations

Dark matter and energy
What is the Universe made of? Stars and other visible matter account for 0.4%. Intergalactic gas is 3.6%. What is the dark stuff which accounts for 96% of the Universe? Nobody knows. It is one of the greatest mysteries of science

The Universe expansion is accelerating In 1998, two groups used distant Supernovae to measure the expansion rate of the universe. (Supernova Cosmology Project and High-z Supernova Team)
They got the same result: The Universe expansion is accelerating Some form of energy (dark energy) fills space

Amazing Constants
Consider some of the physical constants
• Why are there so many natural constants? Why do they assume the values they have?
• Not invented by men, but are there in the natural order and discovered by men – Consider the mathematical beauty in them
– Consider the diverse areas they appear in
– Consider the intelligence
– Consider the chaos if they changed

Fine tuning
• Ratio of gravity to the weak nuclear force has to be adjusted to the precision of one part in 10100 for the cosmos not to suffer swift collapse or explosion.
• The sun's luminescence would fall sharply, and hence too cold, were electromagnetism very slightly stronger (Brandon Carter)
• Changes either in electromagnetism or in gravity “by only one part in 1040 would spell catastrophe for stars like the sun.” (Paul Davies)
![Page 15: Windows to Universe (Multiverse) - Yerevan Physics Institute · Infinite multiverse? ... today an incredibly restrictive set of demands must have been present in the early universe-and](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021819/5ace28967f8b9a56098b6f35/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Fine tuning
• Were gravity ten times less strong, it would be doubtful whether stars and planets could form (R Bruer, 1983)
• If the neutron-proton mass difference were not about twice the mass of the electron, elements would not exist (Stephen Hawking)
• An electron-proton charge difference of more than one part in ten billion would mean that no solid bodies could weigh above one gram. (Rozental)
![Page 16: Windows to Universe (Multiverse) - Yerevan Physics Institute · Infinite multiverse? ... today an incredibly restrictive set of demands must have been present in the early universe-and](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021819/5ace28967f8b9a56098b6f35/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Fine tuning
• Atoms could not exist if the electromagnetic constant were not just a small fraction (Barrow & Tipler)
• If the electric charge of the electron had been only slightly different, stars would have been unable to burn hydrogen and helium, or else they would not have exploded (Stephen Hawking)
• The “fortuitous positioning of nuclear resonance levels in carbon and oxygen” (Fred Hoyle)
![Page 17: Windows to Universe (Multiverse) - Yerevan Physics Institute · Infinite multiverse? ... today an incredibly restrictive set of demands must have been present in the early universe-and](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021819/5ace28967f8b9a56098b6f35/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Fine tuning
• Formation of carbon - another vital element for life - also due to astonishing coincidence
– If ratio of strong nuclear force to electromagnetism were just slightly off, its synthesis in an extremely short window of 10-17 seconds would be impossible
The list goes on . . . . literally endlessly!
No universe today if any of these varied.

A Delicate Balance
• Facts and observations supporting the Anthropic Principle
– Fine-tuned parameters in the universe that support life cannot have occurred by random – Intelligent design
– Who and when determined their fine-tuned values? Who is now holding these values absolutely constant to sustain the universe? Infinite multiverse?
– Are we Boltzmann brains?
– We have to understand “physical” infinity!
![Page 19: Windows to Universe (Multiverse) - Yerevan Physics Institute · Infinite multiverse? ... today an incredibly restrictive set of demands must have been present in the early universe-and](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021819/5ace28967f8b9a56098b6f35/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Anthropic Principle
The anthropic principle (Gr. Anthropos, “human being”) states that the universe was fitted from the very first moment of its existence for the emergence of life in general and human life in particular.
For if there were even the slightest variation at the moment of the big bang, making conditions different, even to a small degree, no life of any kind would exist. In order for life to be present today an incredibly restrictive set of demands must have been present in the early universe-and they were.

Ludwig Boltzmann (1844-1906), austrian physicist: are we Boltzmann
brains?
![Page 21: Windows to Universe (Multiverse) - Yerevan Physics Institute · Infinite multiverse? ... today an incredibly restrictive set of demands must have been present in the early universe-and](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021819/5ace28967f8b9a56098b6f35/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Infinitely improbable do not mean impossible! The second law of thermodynamics is only a statistical fact.
• To quote Planck, "The logarithmic connection between entropy and probability was first stated by L. Boltzmann in his kinetic theory of gases”. This famous formula for entropy S is
• S = kB ln W , • where kB is Boltzmann's constant, W is Wahrscheinlichkeit, a German word
meaning the frequency of occurrence of a macrostate or, more precisely, the number of possible microstates corresponding to the macroscopic state of a system — number of (unobservable) "ways" in the (observable) thermodynamic state of a system can be realized by assigning different positions and momenta to the various molecules. Boltzmann's paradigm was an ideal gas of N identical particles, of which Ni are in the i-th microscopic condition (range) of position and momentum. W can be counted using the formula for permutations
• • where i ranges over all possible molecular conditions. The "correction" in the
denominator is because identical particles in the same condition are indistinguishable.
• A dynamically ordered state, one with molecules moving "at the same speed and in the same direction", Boltzmann concluded, is thus "the most improbable case conceivable...an infinitely improbable configuration of energy."

Earth
Inflationary theory tells us that this cosmic fire was created not at the time t
= 0, but after inflation. If we look beyond the circle of fire surrounding us,
we will see enormously large empty space filled only by a scalar field.

Big Bang
Inflation
If we look there very carefully, we will see small perturbations of space, which
are responsible for galaxy formation. And if we look even further, we will see
how new parts of inflationary universe are created by quantum fluctuations.

Inflationary Multiverse; Self-reproducing Universe with two scalar
fields

Modern physics: something from nothing! Entropy did not increase!
• Vacuum with scalar fields is forever and generates infinity of universes among which is ours, the same do the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics (every possible outcome of every event exists in its own "history" or "world”);
• But when and how physical constants are fixed? And why we observe such a large degree of organization in the Universe?
• Anthropic principle explains unique set of physics constants supporting life: Universe is observed to be in a highly improbable non-equilibrium state, however, only when such states randomly occur can brains exist to be aware of the Universe.
• Are we Boltzmann brains, self-aware entities emerging a result of a random fluctuation in the infinite multiverse, rather than product of evolution?
• Physical infinity vs Mathematical infinity; • Information vs increasing Entrophy.

We have to wait 5*1080 years to get 1 event above 10σ; For generation of a Gaussian random variable fastest supercomputer need 10-15 sec. In year this computer can generate 3*1022 random numbers. So to get one number above 10σ we need~ 1058 years, the age of Universe is ~ 1.4*1010 years
Estimate of the total number of fundamental particles in the observable universe is ~1085

Lessons for first lecture (1 March!)
• Find an example of fine tuning; • Think and make your opinion about atrophic
principle, intelligent design, Boltzmann brains; • Read, calculate, understand about mean,
variance and relative error of measurement, peaks – how to enumerate them;
• How we present measurements: time series, histograms, fitted analytic functions with experimental measured points;
• Program alert for 1 second time series.
