Abstract
Comsologists, or those who study the Universe as a dynamical object, have worked for many years to understand our standard model of cosmology, entitled Concordance Cosmology. Concordance Cosmology is best described by an elegant mathematical model that combines General Relativity, the Cosmological Principle, and the resulting prediction of inflation, a period of rapid expansion in the early Universe. While concordance cosmology is our standard picture, it doesn’t quite describe how particles could have been created in our Universe. This is where our research comes into play.
