~NUMBERS:
0 - 10^-44 seconds
Temp: ?
The laws of physics do not apply
10^-44 - 10^-35 seconds
Temp: 10^32 K
Forces of physics unified (gravity indistinguishable from magentism, for example)
10^-35 - 10^-32 seconds
Temp: 10^27 K
Inflationary model -very rapid expansion of space (note: not stuff IN space)
10^-32 - 10^-6 seconds
Temp: 10^13 K
Radiation dominated
Quarks and Anti-quarks collide and annihilate each other, thus, probably a small excess of matter... like, one part per billion. not exact pairing of matter & anti-matter
10^-6 - 1 seconds
Temp: 10^10 K
Protons, anti-protons, and neutrons form
1 - 5 seconds
Temp: 5 x 10^9 k
Electrons and Positrons form
3 - 4 minutes
Temp: 10^9 k
nuclei of H, He, and Li form
76% H
24% He
<1% Li
1/2 billion years
Temp: 5,000 K
Matter dominated, neutral atoms forming, gravity starts to 'clump' matter
1 billion years (???)
Temp: 15 K
dark matter clumps together, first formation of stars and galaxies
3 billion years
Temp: ?
Quasars dominate
10 - 20 billion years
Temp: 3 K
