Condensed lecture notes at graduate-student level on standard cosmology, the physics of the early universe, and inflation. Based on lectures given by G. Lazarides (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) at the 1998 Corfu Summer Institute on Elementary Particle Physics.
-
Lecture notes for graduate-level lectures originally given at the 1998 Cargese summer school, by George Ellis and Henk van Elst. The notes give a systematic presentation of a 1+3 covariant approach to studying the geometry, dynamics, and observational properties of the cosmological models of general relativity.
-
Entry in Eric Weisstein's World of Physics. Contains many links to related entries, and a list of useful materials.
-
Overview of cosmology, suitable for a general audience, from Patricia Schwarz's Official String Theory Website. Includes information on big bang models, inflation, and, naturally, on the connection between cosmology and string theory.
-
A fairly complete overview of current cosmological models, from the cosmological principle to cosmic expansion and the physics of the early universe. Uses very simple formulas.
-
Extensive collection of articles, monographs, data bases, tools and essays related to extragalactic astronomy and cosmology. Maintained by Barry F. Madore (Caltech and Carnegie Observatory).
-
Online book from the National Academy of Sciences, published in 1995 by the National Research Council's Board on Cosmology as a re-assessment of the cosmological research earlier examined by the Physics Survey Committee. Includes chapters on the cosmic background radiation, the large scale structure of universe, and the physics of the early universe.
-
Article from Christian Science Monitor about Paul Steinhardt and his work on the "Ekpyrotic Universe", a speculative model which uses concepts of string theory to arrive at a periodically repeating series of big bangs.
-
A one-page, non-mathematical introduction to modern cosmology, from the basics (isotropy and homogeneity) to the question of dark matter.
-
Site maintained by a UCLA astronomy professor, which features an introduction to cosmology (which uses no more than high-school level mathematics), links to resources, a section on "fads and fallacies", and comments on latest developments.
-
Includes series overview, history of the universe, video clip, teachers' guide, and resources.
