<<Approximately 10-37 seconds into the expansion, a phase transition caused a cosmic inflation, during which the universe grew exponentially. [18] After inflation stopped, the universe consisted of a quark–gluon plasma, as well as all other elementary particles. [19] Temperatures were so high that the random motions of particles were at relativistic speeds, and particle–antiparticle pairs of all kinds were being continuously created and destroyed in collisions. At some point an unknown reaction called baryogenesis violated the conservation of baryon number, leading to a very small excess of quarks and leptons over antiquarks and antileptons—of the order of one part in 30 million.

This resulted in the predominance of matter.>>

This "matter" part happened down the road. For 100,000 years or more?, it was too hot except for the elementary particles as noted above.

I think. My understanding of all of this is full of holes.
