What Was the Hottest Thing Ever?

The video explores the concept of the hottest things in the universe, starting with the Large Hadron Collider's 2012 experiment that created quark-gluon plasma at 5.5 trillion degrees Celsius. It then discusses the superheated intracluster medium in galaxy clusters, maintained by black holes. Finally, it delves into the Big Bang, where the universe reached temperatures of 10^32 degrees Celsius, known as absolute hot, before cooling down to form the universe as we know it.

What was the primary goal of the ALICE experiment conducted at the Large Hadron Collider in 2012?

• To measure the speed of light

• To create a quark-gluon plasma

• To find new elements

• To discover new galaxies

Why is the intracluster medium in galaxy clusters so hot?

• Because of the energy released during galaxy formation

• Due to the presence of supernovas

• Due to the collision of galaxies

• Because of the presence of dark matter

What role do black holes play in maintaining the temperature of the intracluster medium?

• They absorb all the heat

• They release energy that turns into heat

• They have no effect on the temperature

• They cool down the medium

What is the concept of 'absolute hot'?

• The coldest temperature possible

• The temperature of a supernova

• The hottest temperature possible

• The average temperature of the universe

What happened to the universe's temperature as it expanded after the Big Bang?

• It decreased

• It increased

• It fluctuated randomly

• It remained constant
