| Title | Masks of the universe: Changing ideas on the nature of the cosmos |
| Author(s) | Edward Harrison |
| Edition | 2nd |
| Publication | Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2003. |
| Description | xi, 331p. |
| Abstract Note | To the ancient Greeks the universe consisted of earth, air, fire, and water. To Saint Augustine it was the Word of God. To many modern scientists it is the dance of atoms and waves, and in years to come it may be different again. What then is the real Universe? History shows that in every age each society constructs its own universe, believing it to be the real and final Universe. Yet each universe is only a model or mask of the unknown Universe. Originally published in 2003, this book brings together fundamental scientific, philosophical, and religious issues in cosmology, raising thought-provoking questions. In every age people have pitied the universes of their ancestors, convinced that they have at last discovered the ultimate truth. Does the modern model stand at the threshold of discovering everything, or will it, like all the rest, come to be pitied? |

| Title | Introduction to the theory of the early universe: Cosmological Perturbations and Inflationary Theory |
| Author(s) | Dmitry S. Gorbunov ;Valery A. Rubakov |
| Publication | New Jersey, World Scientific Publishing Co. Pvt. Ltd., 2010. |
| Description | xiii, 489p. |
| Abstract Note | This book accompanies another book by the same authors, Introduction to the Theory of the Early Universe: Hot Big Bang Theory and presents the theory of the evolution of density perturbations and relic gravity waves, theory of cosmological inflation and post-inflationary reheating. Written in a pedagogical style, the main chapters give a detailed account of the established theory, with derivation of formulas. Being self-contained, it is a useful textbook for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students. Essential materials from General Relativity, theory of Gaussian random fields and quantum field theory are collected in the appendices. The more advanced topics are approached similarly in a pedagogical way. These parts may serve as a detailed introduction to current research. |

| Publication | Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2010. |
| Description | xiv, 491p. |
| Abstract Note | View other formats: Adobe eBook Reader
Dark energy, the mysterious cause of the accelerating expansion of the universe, is one of the most important fields of research in astrophysics and cosmology today. Introducing the theoretical ideas, observational methods and results, this textbook is ideally suited to graduate courses on dark energy, and will also supplement advanced cosmology courses. Providing a thorough introduction to this exciting field, the textbook covers the cosmological constant, quintessence, k-essence, perfect fluid models, extra-dimensional models, and modified gravity. Observational research is reviewed, from the cosmic microwave background to baryon acoustic oscillations, weak lensing and cluster abundances. Every chapter ends with problems, with full solutions provided, and any calculations are worked through step-by-step.

| Title | High energy universe: Ultra-high energy events in astrophysics and cosmology |
| Author(s) | Peter Meszaros |
| Publication | Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2010. |
| Description | xi, 209p. |
| Abstract Note | In the last two decades, cosmology, particle physics, high energy astrophysics and gravitational physics have become increasingly interwoven. The intense activity taking place at the intersection of these disciplines is constantly progressing, with the advent of major cosmic ray, neutrino, gamma ray and gravitational wave observatories for studying cosmic sources, along with the construction of particle physics experiments using beams and signals of cosmic origin. This book provides an up-to-date overview of the recent advances and potential future developments in this area, discussing both the main theoretical ideas and experimental results. It conveys the challenges but also the excitement associated with this field. |

| Title | Observational cosmology |
| Author(s) | Stephen Serjeant |
| Publication | Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2010. |
| Description | 324p. |
| Abstract Note | Providing a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of observational cosmology, this advanced undergraduate textbook enables students to use quantitative physical methods to understand the Universe. The textbook covers recent developments such as precision cosmology and the concordance cosmological model, inflation, gravitational lensing, the extragalactic far-infrared and X-ray backgrounds, downsizing and baryon wiggles. It also explores the future missions and facilities likely to dominate cosmological research in the future, including radio, X-ray, submillimetre-wave and gravitational wave astronomy. |

| Title | Introduction to the theory of the early universe: Hot Big Bang Theory |
| Author(s) | Dmitry S Gorbunov ;Valery A Rubakov |
| Publication | New Jersey, World Scientific Publishing Co. Pvt. Ltd., 2010. |
| Description | xiii, 473p. |
| Abstract Note | This book is written from the viewpoint of a deep connection between cosmology and particle physics. It presents the results and ideas on both the homogeneous and isotropic Universe at the hot stage of its evolution and in later stages. The main chapters describe in a systematic and pedagogical way established facts and concepts on the early and the present Universe. The comprehensive treatment, hence, serves as a modern introduction to this rapidly developing field of science. To help in reading the chapters without having to constantly consult other texts, essential materials from General Relativity and the theory of elementary particles are collected in the appendices. Various hypotheses dealing with unsolved problems of cosmology, and often alternative to each other, are discussed at a more advanced level. These concern dark matter, dark energy, matter-antimatter asymmetry, etc. |
