The Feynman Diagrams for the Big Bang

The Feynman Diagrams for the Big Bang

It is sometimes said that the moment of the Big Bang is beyond the scope of science. I disagree with that statement. If the Big Bang is within the realms of Quantum Field Theory then we should be able to draw Feynman diagrams starting from the Big Bang singularity.

These Feynman diagrams are very special because they necessarily have an infinite world number of lines drawn out of the point T=0. However, it turns out that when transforming the description to cosmological time, this simply means that an infinite number of particles are created at the Big Bang forming a Poisson distribution.

The most likely candidate for the identity of these infinite number of particles are gravitons, as there is no limit to the number of gravitons that can be emitted in a single interaction. The other alternative is that we must simply sum over every possible configuration of particles.
