Title | How the universe works: Introduction to Modern Cosmology |
Author(s) | Serge Parnovsky;Aleksei Parnowski |
Publication | New Jersey, World Scientific Publishing Co. Pvt. Ltd., 2018. |
Description | xxii, 163p. |
Abstract Note | This book is about the history and the current state of the art in the exciting field of cosmology — the science about the Universe as a whole, which is guaranteed to attract the attention of a wide range of readers. It mostly aims to explain the main ideas of modern cosmology: the expanding Universe, its creation in a Big Bang, its evolution, characteristics, and structure, as well as issues — dark matter and dark energy, black holes and other exotic objects etc. It also answers most frequently asked questions about cosmology. |

Title | Cosmology for physicists |
Author(s) | David Lyth |
Publication | Boca Raton, CRC Press, 2017. |
Description | xi, 168p. |
Series | (Series in Astronomy and Astrophysics) |
Abstract Note | Written by an award-winning cosmologist, this brand new textbook provides advanced undergraduate and graduate students with coverage of the very latest developments in the observational science of cosmology. The book is separated into three parts; part I covers particle physics and general relativity, part II explores an account of the known history of the universe, and part III studies inflation. Full treatment of the origin of structure, scalar fields, the cosmic microwave background and the early universe are provided.
Problems are included in the book with solutions provided in a separate solutions manual. More advanced extension material is offered in the Appendix, ensuring the book is fully accessible to students with a wide variety of background experience. |

Title | Synthesis of the elements: The Astrophysical Quest for Nucleosynthesis and What It Can tell Us About the Universe |
Author(s) | Giora Shaviv |
Publication | Berlin, Springer-Verlag, 2012. |
Description | xxii, 684p. |
Series | (Astrophysics and Space Science Library) |
Abstract Note | This book describes the origins and evolution of the chemical elements we and the cosmos are made of. The story starts with the discovery of the common elements on Earth and their subsequent discovery in space. How do we learn the composition of the distant stars? How did progress in quantum theory, nuclear physics, spectroscopy, stellar structure and evolution, together with observations of stars, converge to provide an incredibly detailed picture of the universe? How does research in the micro-world explain the macro-world? How does progress in one affect the other, or lack of knowledge in one inhibit progress in the other? In short, Shaviv describes how we discovered the various pieces of the jigsaw that form our present picture of the universe; and how we sometimes put these in the wrong place before finding in the right one. |
