Again, I'm not a physicist, and help would be appreciated. With Roger Penrose's recent exclamations about evidence of a pre-big bang eon, a few questions have arisen for me. I have extrapolated (very likely incorrectly) that Mr. Penrose (I assume doctor is the proper term, but I cannot recall hearing it) is alluding to some sort of steady state theory. I can only gather from what I have read that his calculations are referring to some sort of consistent reproducing big bang cycle (which may be wrong).
But, my ultimate question/confusion on the subject is... if our current understanding of the universe/big bang theory is that there was (for no understood reason) slightly more matter than antimatter in the birthing stages of the universe, and inevitably antimatter lost out to matter. Than where does all the antimatter come from in the next eon? I feel I may have to elaborate further, but hopefully I was clear enough for someone to understand my question.
