To describe the acceleration, someone said, "It's as if particles are coming into existence generating space at the same time." Mr. Kapp described this very process in 1940 when he proposed PP3 below (which should be a feather in his you-know-what).
To make this theory the top choice of the three, we will have to show that PP3 doesn't have the defects of PP1 and PP2. First, we'll describe this third idea a little without getting into too much detail.
What comes into existence exactly? It can't be something like a whole atom built into some kind of structure. The particle has to be simpler, and it probably isn't one of our old friends: protons, neutrons, or electrons. Even quarks are not simple enough; all these sub-particles already have different properties, masses, and charges.
What does coming-into-existence mean? Rather than something coming from nothing, the process is more like a change. We don't have anything like sudden existence going on anywhere else in our universe; the universe has only change. A positron meets an electron, and they wipe each other out; but the result is pure energy rather than nothing. In the opposite direction, energy can split into an electron and a positron. In Kapp's theory, what we call "nothing" also splits into two separate items, matter and flat space, and we'll describe the process in more detail later. This exploration will give new meaning to the opening line in the old Star Trek series--"Space, the final frontier."
