recollapsev.

Brit.

/ˌriːkəˈlaps/, U.S.

/ˌrikəˈlæps/

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: re- prefix, collapse v.

Etymology: < re- prefix + collapse v.

Now chiefly Astronomy.

intransitive. To collapse again; spec. (of the universe) to contract to a singular state of extreme density and temperature similar to that hypothesized to exist before the big bang (cf. big crunch n. at big adj. and adv. Compounds 2).

1890 Ann. Univ. Med. Sci. III. B27 In such cases the lung should immediately re-collapse, which it did not do.

1949 Amer. Jrnl. Surg. 78 674/1 There is no tendency for the lung to recollapse after the water seal drainage has been removed.

1977 New Sci. 27 Jan. 207/1 In principle, dark dust in some form could even provide enough mass density to slow down the expansion of the Universe gravitationally at some future epoch so that it recollapses.

1988 J. D. Barrow & F. J. Tipler Anthropic Cosmol. Princ. (rev. ed.) iv. 248 If the Universe is finite and bounded in space and time, it will recollapse to a second singularity having many features in common with the initial big bang singularity.

2003 Cell Death & Differentiation 10 267/2 Eventually, the influx of sodium destabilizes the structured water bound to the expanded matrix, and the matrix recollapses, expelling the matrix-bound sodium and re-establishing the resting state of the cell.

2006 Seed Sept. 43/2 We know that the universe is actually accelerating and seems unlikely to ever recollapse.
