the theory that the universe began with the explosion of dense material, called 'Singularity'. Scientists believe that the universe came into existence through the 'Big Bang' about 15 billion years ago. The 'moment' of creation is said to be an astronomical figure of 10 raise to –57th of a second (a decimal point followed by 57 zeros and one part of a second. This followed matter and energy being released into space, creating cosmic gases, solidifying matter and forming stars, gas clouds, cosmic dust and finally the galaxies. The Big Bang was so huge that galaxies continue to form, running away from each other, expanding the universe at an extremely tremendous speed.

The cosmic explosion that is thought to have marked the beginning of the observable universe.

A cataclysmic explosion that scientists suggest represents the formation of the Universe; before this event, all matter and all energy were packed into one volumeless point.

A broadly accepted theory for the origin and evolution of our universe. The theory says that the observable universe started roughly 13.7 billion years ago from an extremely dense and incredibly hot initial state.

currently accepted theory that the expanding universe began some 15 billion years ago from a state of enormous energy, density, and compression.

A cosmological theory in which the Universe begins expanding from a dense, superhot state of radiation and matter; this expansion of space presumably started some 15 to 20 billion years ago and produced the cosmic background radiation.

term used to describe the origin event of the universe

The initial singularity that started the space and time of our Universe, now thought to have occurred 13 to 15 billion years ago.

A reference to 27 October 1986 when the Stock Exchange switched to new rules and automated dealing.

A model of the Universe beginning at very high density and temperature, which expands and cools to become the Universe we observe now.

inferred event of explosive emergence of the known universe from a state of extremely high energy and temperature

Changes in UK stock exchange practices that took place in 1986. They permitted institutions such as banks and insurance companies to own stock exchange subsidiaries, abolished the segregation between brokers and jobbers and ended the system of fixed commissions.

an explosive/destructive thermodynamic event

A theory which states that the universe began with an enormous explosion.

The fiery birth of the observable universe in an explosion of space itself, which occurred at some time between 12 and 15 billion years ago. According to the prevailing theory, the Big Bang launched the observed expansion of the universe that continues to this day.

The explosion that, according to scientific theory, began the Universe. The Earth and beyond

The beginning event in the Universe. The explosion of this primordial fireball some 15 billion years ago caused the initial outward expansion of gas and dust which formed the universe. CETI: An acronym for Communication with Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence.

An astrophysical theory of the beginning of the Universe. It suggests that the Universe began in a very tiny region of space, and exploded outward. Astrophysicists believe that this occurred roughly 14 billion years ago. Other astrophysical theories for the beginning of the Universe— like the Braneworld theory—exist, though none is as thoroughly studied and supported by the data as the Big Bang model. Scientists have no idea what came before the Big Bang.

The explosion and rapid explansion of matter that occurred at the creation of our universe. In the immediate aftermath of the Big Bang, all matter is thought to have consisted of free quarks and gluons at extremely high temperatures and densities. This plasma then cooled and coalesced into the particles and atoms that now make up all objects in the universe.

The Big Bang theory is currently the best explanation for the origin of the universe. The theory states that around 15,000 million years ago all the matter and energy that later became the planets, stars, and galaxies was concentrated into a very small and incredibly dense space. It then started expanding very quickly. The Origin of the Universe

The Big Bang is the name given to the currently most widely accepted model of the initial stages of the universe, and it's subsequent evolution with time. Often, the term refers to the earliest stages of the expansion of the universe when the density and temperature of the universe would have been much higher than they are now. Ever since the earliest times the universe has been expanding (e.g., the average distance between galaxies has been increasing), and cooling (the temperature of the remnant radiation from the hot, dense, early times has been dropping). More.

October 27th, 1986, when a number of reforms of the LSE took effect. Single capacity and fixed commissions were removed and the SEAQ electronic dealing system implemented.

A theory of the creation of the universe. This theory assumes that all matter and space were initially compressed into a very small volume, then began expanding in an event called the Big Bang. The big bang theory has wide support in the scientific community because it has successfully predicted and explained many observed phenomena in the universe.

According to standard cosmology, the explosion that started the universe expanding 10 to 15 billion years ago.

The Big Bang theory is the most accepted theory so far to describe the origin and evolution of the Universe. According to it, all the matter and energy in the Universe was originally contained in a very small 'point' - technically called a 'singularity' - at an almost infinite temperature and density. About 10 to 20 billion years ago this tiny Universe started to expand, and has not stopped expanding since. This theory was first drafted by Russian physicist George Gamow in the late forties, although only when the cosmic microwave background was discovered in 1964 did the astronomical community start to take it seriously. As of today, apart from the cosmic microwave background, two other pillars support the Big Bang theory: the current expansion of the Universe and the measured abundance of light elements.

The first big shake-up of the stock market, in October 1986. This marked the end of single capacity, in which jobbers bought and sold shares for their own account and stockbrokers acted as agents only. Afterwards brokers could hold and trade shares and many of them were wise enough to do so at the time of the 1987 crash. This was followed in 1996 by the introduction of CREST and then in 1997 by Big Bang II.

The name given to the massive 'explosion' of which some scientists think the Universe started.

The name given to 27 October 1986, when the LSE's new regulations took effect and the automated price quotation system was introduced.

The term applied to the liberalization in 1986 of the London Stock Exchange (LSE) when trading was automated.

This is a scientific theory of how the Universe emerged from an extremely (probably infinitely) dense and hot state around 13.7 billion years ago.

The most widely accepted theory for the formation of the universe. All the matter that makes up the universe today exploded outwards from a single tiny point.

the flat in an issue that received the most bangs.

Popular term for the change in U.K. Stock Exchange rules and practices throughout 1986, taking full effect on October 27, 1986. Banks and insurance companies were allowed to own stock exchange subsidiaries, new electronic dealing systems were established, fixed commissions were eliminated and the hitherto strict segregation was ended between brokers (retail) and jobbers (wholesale). The merging of brokers and jobbers became known as Dual Capacity.

27th October 1986, when the new Exchange introduced new regulations and the Automated Price Quotation System (SEAQ)

The term is used to refer to the singularity at the beginning of our universe. The Big Bang theory explains how the universe is expanding from its initial state.

Technically the day when minimum commissions were abolished on the Stock Exchange. Also a term used to cover the whole changes that took place in the City in the 1980s.

a theory in which the expansion of the Universe is presumed to have begun with a primeval explosion.

Theory of how our universe began.

The term applied to the liberalization in 1986 of the London Stock Exchange (L.S.E.) in which trading was automated with the use of computers.

Evolutionary idea that the universe formed from a massive explosion which caused order instead of a big mess.

the giant explosion that created the universe 10 billion to 20 billion years ago.

The deregulation of the London Stock Market that took place in October 1986, when the London Stock Exchange went fully electronic.

Beginning of the universe; a transition from conditions of unimaginable density and temperature to conditions of lower density and temperature.

The explosive event that began the expansion of the universe.

massive explosion of matter and energy, with which it is thought the history of our Universe began. The matter was initially concentrated in an infinitesimal space, at very high temperature and density; after the explosion, while the Universe began to expand, the matter became more and more cold and rarefied.

The cosmic explosion that is hypothesized to have marked the origin of the universe.

Event that cosmologists consider the beginning of the universe, in which all matter and radiation in the entire universe came into being.

October 27, 1986, when the Exchange's new regulations took effect and the new automated price quotation system was introduced.

Changes in UK stock exchange practices that took place in 1986. They abolished the segregation between brokers and jobbers (securities market makers) and ended the system of fixed commissions.

The theory that the universe expands adiabatically according to the standard equations of general relativity from an initial state of infinite density, temperature, and pressure except during the period from about 10 -43 to 10 -34 seconds (of the universe's existence), when it expanded at an exponentially accelerated rate.

Theory that suggests that about 15 billion years ago all of the matter and energy in the Universe was concentrated into an area smaller than a atom. At this instant, matter, energy, space and time did not exist. Then suddenly, the Universe began to expand at an incredible rate and matter, energy, space and time came into being. As the Universe expanded, matter began to coalesce into gas clouds, and then stars and planets. Some scientists believe that this expansion is finite and will one day cease. After this point in time, the Universe will begin to collapse until a Big Crunch occurs.

A popular term describing the explosive start of the Universe based on the interpretation of observed red-shifted light data.

A theoretical model of the "birth" of the observable universe, which suggests that the universe began as a rapid expansion of space and time from a single point, or singularity.

The explosion of a primal mass at the beginning of this universe, which created this universe.

The original meaning of the "Big Bang" is derived from the astrological term, The Big Bang Theory, which theorizes that the universe originated from a gigantic explosion. Taken from this, the reforms centering on the stock exchange that were put into effect in England October 27, 1986, came to be commonly referred to as the "Big Bang."

27 October 1986. The day when the system of share trading in the UK was radically changed to remove fixed commissions and introduce screen based trading.

In physical cosmology, the Big Bang is the scientific theory that the universe emerged from a tremendously dense and hot state about 13.7 billion years ago. The theory is based on the observations indicating the expansion of space in accord with the Robertson-Walker model of general relativity, as indicated by the Hubble redshift of distant galaxies taken together with the cosmological principle.

The phrase Big Bang, used in reference to the sudden deregulation of financial markets, was coined to describe measures including the abolition of the distinction between stockjobbers and stockbrokers on the London Stock Exchange by the United Kingdom government in 1986.

A big bang project is one that has no staged delivery. The customer must wait, sometimes months, before seeing anything from the development team. At the end of the wait comes a "big bang".

Big Bang: The most important scientific discovery of all time and why you need to know about it is a book written by Simon Singh and published in 2004 by Fourth Estate.

Big Bang (ë¹…ë±…) is a Korean hip hop group comprised of five members. Big Bang made its debut at the YG Family concert, held on August 19th at the Gymnastics Arena in Seoul Olympic Park. Originally with six members, one was dropped in the ninth episode of their documentary episodes.
