	Andrei Linde - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Andrei Linde is a Russian physicist and professor of Physics at California's Stanford University.
		Linde is best known for his work on the concept of the inflationary universe.
		In 1975, Linde was awarded a Ph.D. from the Lebedev Physical Institute in Moscow.

		Andrei Linde, Professor at Stanford University, is undoubtedly one of those who have exerted the strongest influence on the development of modern cosmology.
		Andrei Linde conceived the idea of “eternal inflation”, which describes our Universe as a bubble created by the inflation of a small part of a larger Universe, in which inflationary bubbles could appear at any point and in turn create zero, one or more bubbles, ad infinitum.
		Andrei Linde concern phase transitions in the early Universe, and the transition from the inflationary era to the radiation era, which describes the state of the Universe shortly before the synthesis of the light elements.

	Andrei Linde (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Andrei Linde was born into science, in Moscow, on March 2, 1948, the son of two professors of physics at Moscow State University.
		Linde soon recognized that a particular way of ending the inflationary epoch (called a "slow roll") could solve some of the problems of the original model, while preserving most of its important features.
		Throughout this period, Andrei Linde has been in the forefront of new ideas about the early universe, beginning with chaotic inflation in 1983 and, perhaps most important, his idea of a chaotic, self-reproducing, inflationary universe, published in 1986.

	The Big Crunch / Instead of expanding forever, the universe may only have 10 billion years until it collapses
		To Andrei Linde, the eminent Moscow-born cosmologist at Stanford University, the end of the universe is nigh.
		Linde and his wife are among a worldwide band of physicists and astronomers who are trying to puzzle out the complexities of the cosmos from clues hidden in distant exploding stars, in the echoes of the universe's earliest instants, and in the tangled equations of relativity and space-time.
		An art student and philosopher before he took to physics, Linde is one of the founders of the so-called "inflationary" universe scenario, a revolutionary concept that sees the early universe inflating in a sudden burst of speed after the Big Bang then settling into a more stable rate of expansion.

	The Universal Wizard - - science news articles online technology magazine articles The Universal Wizard (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Linde is best known for his evangelical advocacy of a concept called inflation, which holds that in its very early infancy the universe underwent a brief but stupendous growth spurt before settling down to its current more leisurely rate of expansion.
		Linde pointed out that this could help cosmologists understand what happened during the first fraction of a second after the Big Bang, when the cosmos was so hot that all the forces acted as one.
		In fact, Linde suggests, our own universe might have been created by beings in another universe, and physicists, in their fumbling attempts to unravel the physical structure of our world, may be on the path to decoding a message from our cosmic parents.

	Origin and fate of the Universe
		The "battle" is in fact a scientific disagreement between Andrei Linde, a physics professor at Stanford and well-known proponent of the inflationary universe theory, and Stephen Hawking, a prominent Cambridge University physicist and author of the best-selling book A Brief History of Time.
		But Linde freed the inflationary model from this limitation by showing that it could be produced simply by the presence of a special kind of field, called a scalar field, that particle physics has invoked to explain why particles have mass.
		Linde also questioned the way the pair used the Hartle-Hawking equations that are the very basis of the no-boundary proposal.

		Linde has been amply honored for his achievement, most recently by being awarded the 2004 Cosmology Prize of the Peter Gruber Foundation (along with Alan Guth, another pioneer of the theory of cosmic inflation).
		Linde, it should be said, is famous for his mock-gloomy manner, and these words were laced with irony.
		Linde's picture was as unsatisfying as Voltaire's idea of a creator who established our universe but then took no further interest in it or its creatures.

		Doubtlessly, one of the greatest physicists currently alive is Andrei Linde of the Lebedeu Physical Institute in Moscow.
		Recently, he investigated various problems related to the theory of the electroweak phase transition, including determination of the nature of the phase transition, discussion of the possible rate of higher-order radiative corrections, and the theory of the formation of evolution of bubbles of the new phase.
		Andrei Linde devised a new way of viewing the early Universe in terms of symmetry breaking especially involving Higgs fields.

		An attractive, tidily dressed man, Linde speaks with a thick Russian accent and a colorfully inverted syntax.

		Linde: There are a number of problems with the big-bang theory, but I'll start by mentioning two of a physical nature and two of a philosophical nature.

	Universe might yet collapse in 'big crunch' - 06 September 2002 - New Scientist Space
		In August, Linde won the Dirac medal for his role in developing this theory.
		Linde and his colleagues calculate that the typical time for the Universe to start this collapse would be in 10 to 20 billion years from now.
		But Linde says observations of supernovae, the leftover radiation from the big bang and galaxy distributions should help resolve the issue by pinning down the densities of dark energy and matter at different times in the past.

		Linde is quick to acknowledge that the collapsing universe scenario is not the final word on the fate of the cosmos.
		Linde helped pioneer inflationary cosmology -- the theory that the universe began not with a fiery big bang but with an extraordinarily rapid expansion (inflation) of space in a vacuum-like state.

		Despite what recent observations suggest, Professor Andrei Linde from Stanford University and his wife Professor Renata Kallosh say the universe will stop expanding and collapse in the relatively near future.
		According to Professor Linde and Professor Kallosh the properties of the dark energy could be changing in a way which will eventually neutralise its influence.
		Professor Linde said: "Physicists have known that dark energy could become negative and the universe could collapse some time in the very distant future, perhaps in a trillion years, but now we see that we might be not at the beginning, but in the middle of the life cycle of our universe."

		And in a delicious touch of irony, Linde, who now works at Stanford University, made this outrageous claim in a lecture at a workshop on the Birth of the Universe held recently in Rome, where the view of Creation is usually rather different.
		Linde and his colleagues point out that the Universe we live in is like a hole in a sea of superdense, exponentially expanding inflationary cosmic material, within which there are other holes.
		If Linde's team is right, however, the measured value of the "constant" may be different for galaxies at different distances from us, truly throwing the cat among the cosmological pigeons.

	Cosmologist Andrei Linde awarded Dirac Medal for theoretical physics
		In announcing the award, ICTP officials credited the three scientists with developing the concept of ''inflationary cosmology'' - the idea that the universe began not with a fiery big bang but with an extraordinarily rapid expansion (inflation) of space in a vacuum-like state.
		According to inflation theory, the universe started out smaller than a proton, then - in less than a billionth of a billionth of a billionth of a second - expanded to a size trillions of times bigger than our observable universe.
		In 1986, four years before joining the Stanford faculty, Linde published the theory of a self-reproducing inflationary universe - the idea that ours is but one of many inflationary universes that sprout from an eternal cosmic tree.

		While the possibility of an exponential expansion of the early universe had been noted before, it was Guth who first realized that inflation would solve some of the major problems confronting Big Bang cosmology.
		Difficulties with the original inflationary model were recognized from the start, and were overcome with the introduction of "new" inflation by Linde, Steinhardt and Andreas Albrecht, a student of Steinhardt's.
