13. Thermal equilibrium: interaction rate> volume expansion interaction rate per unit time (one particle): (n=density) volume expansion: relative expansion per unit time: relativistic particles loose energy between interactions because of expansion

15. When kt<2m  c 2 = 280 MeV, t=10 -4 s, the last hadrons annihilate, except for a few non relativistic protons and neutrons, surviving thanks to a small asymmetry between matter and antimatter ( ). This is today’s matter! This requires 1)small B non conservation, not included in the SM GUT 2)CP non conservation CKM q mixing contributes, but may not be sufficient neutrino mixing matrix also has a CP non conservation phase, which may do the job 3) Non equilibrium

17. t<1 s: Neutrino freeze out at kT=0.8 MeV : t> 10 s: primordial nucleosynthesis remain photons, and a few electrons and non relativistic p, n in thermal equilibrium Deuterium 2 H is then the start of other fusion reactions, leading to light nuclei ends when

18. Nucleosynthesis No stable nuclei with A=5, 8, primordial nucleosynthesis ends here!

20. After that the universe is filled with photons, electrons and light nuclei in thermal equilibrium e - +p H(atom)+  slows down when ends for kT 0.3 eV, (T 3.5x10 3 K) t=10 5 yr t>10 5 yr matter (neutral atoms) and radiation decouple no more Compton interaction with charged particles: Universe becomes transparent to radiation (photons) relic photons now cooled down to Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB)

30. Possible explanation: inflation in the early universe Friedman-Lemaître Thermal equilibrium in volume small enough, evolving into present oservable universe

31. Where do the elements with A>4 come from? Up to A=55: fusion reactions in stars Above: neutron capture +  decay in stars, supernovae explosions Abundance of isotopes
