A theory about the origin of the universe (3,4)

I believe the answer is:

big bang

(Other definitions for big bang that I've seen before include "initiation theory?" , "Theory of world creation" , "Universal beginning" , "Exchange affected by this" , "Our origins in theory" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
