TAILIEUCHUNG - Ebook Physical foundations of cosmology: Part 1

(BQ) Part 1 book "Physical foundations of cosmology" has contents: Kinematics and dynamics of an expanding universe, propagation of light and horizons, the hot universe, the very early universe. | PHYSICAL FOUNDATIONS OF COSMOLOGY Inflationary cosmology has been developed over the last 20 years to remedy serious shortcomings in the standard hot big bang model of the an original approach, this textbook explains the basis of modern cosmology and shows where the theoretical results come from. The book is divided into two parts: the first deals with the homogeneous and isotropic model of the universe, while the second part discusses how initial inhomogeneities can explain the observed structure of the universe. Analytical treatments of traditionally highly numerical topics – such as primordial nucleosynthesis, recombination and cosmic microwave background anisotropy – are provided, and inflation and quantum cosmological perturbation theory are covered in great detail. The reader is brought to the frontiers of current cosmological research by the discussion of more speculative ideas. This is an ideal textbook both for advanced students of physics and astrophysics and for those with a particular interest in theoretical cosmology. Nearly every formula in the book is derived from basic physical principles covered in undergraduate courses. Each chapter includes all necessary background material and no prior knowledge of general relativity and quantum field theory is assumed. Viatcheslav Mukhanov is Professor of Physics and Head of the Astroparticle Physics and Cosmology Group at the Department of Physics, LudwigMaximilians-Universit¨ t M¨ nchen, Germany. Following his . at the Moscow a u Physical-Technical Institute, he conducted research at the Institute for Nuclear Research, Moscow, between 1982 and 1991. From 1992, he was a lecturer at Eidgen¨ ssische Technische Hochschule (ETH) in Z¨ rich, Switzerland, until his apo u pointment at LMU in 1997. His current research interests include cosmic microwave background fluctuations, inflationary models, string cosmology, the cosmological constant problem, dark energy, quantum and classical black holes, and
