The very matter that caused the big bang, the singularity that existed before this univserse came in existance. What exactly was this? Was it atoms completly squashed into eachother, to the point all particles were directly "Squeezed" together? Was it just random particles together (Gluons, neutrons, ions, muons, quarks, hell, even tachyons), just clusterf*cked together?

 

Or was it 1 single atom of an infinite mass? (Infinite electrons / protons)

the very first matter that condensed out of the gamma rays was likely to be basic elementary particles. electrons, quarks, gluons, neutrinos etc.

 

nothing else would have been able to exist in such a high energy enviroment.

So, basically a clusterf*ck of elementary particles.

This was a short while AFTER the big bang.

 

I can't find the diagram that shows the formation atm though

oh right that existed before the big bang. sorry. wasn't wuite awake then. we have no idea what came before or even if there was a before.

Feh, nobody?

I think the last part of IA's reply pretty much sums it up, no one knows... Many would probably argue nothing. And untill quite recently, most would.
