An Introduction to Modern Cosmology
An Introduction to Modern Cosmology Third Edition is an accessible account of modern cosmological ideas. The Big Bang Cosmology is explored, looking at its observational successes in explaining the expansion of the Universe, the existence and properties of the cosmic microwave background, and the origin of light elements in the universe. Properties of the very early Universe are also covered, including the motivation for a rapid period of expansion known as cosmological inflation. The third edition brings this established undergraduate textbook up-to-date with the rapidly evolving observational situation. This fully revised edition of a bestseller takes an approach which is grounded in physi...
Nigel Farage in His Own Words
A compendium of Farage's best quotations.
Cosmological Inflation and Large-Scale Structure
This textbook provides graduate students with a thorough and up-to-date introduction to inflationary cosmology. Enormous progress has been made in this area in the last few years and this book is the first to provide a modern and unified overview. It covers all aspects of inflationary cosmology and carefully compares predictions with the latest observations, including those of the cosmic microwave background, the clustering and velocities of galaxies and the epoch of structure formation. Problems are included throughout to help the student to develop a thorough understanding. With the host of international experiments currently being performed and planned for the near future (including NASA's MAP satellite, and the European Space Agency's Planck mission), inflationary cosmology promises to be one of the most exciting and fruitful topics of research in science in the next decade. This book provides graduate students with the ideal introduction.
The Primordial Density Perturbation
The origin and evolution of the primordial perturbation is the key to understanding structure formation in the earliest stages of the Universe. It carries clues to the types of physical phenomena active in that extreme high-density environment. Through its evolution, generating first the observed cosmic microwave background anisotropies and later the distribution of galaxies and dark matter in the Universe, it probes the properties and dynamics of the present Universe. This graduate-level textbook gives a thorough account of theoretical cosmology and perturbations in the early Universe, describing their observational consequences and showing how to relate such observations to primordial physical processes, particularly cosmological inflation. With ambitious observational programmes complementing ever-increasing sophistication in theoretical modelling, cosmological studies will remain at the cutting edge of astrophysical studies for the foreseeable future.
The Oxford Companion to Cosmology
This companion includes over 350 entries, extensively cross-referenced, describing the modern view of cosmology, including both theoretical ideas and the many strands of observational evidence.
Bayesian Methods in Cosmology
Comprehensive introduction to Bayesian methods in cosmological studies, for graduate students and researchers in cosmology, astrophysics and applied statistics.
Brooding Luxuries
Andrew Liddle's poetry has appeared widely and Green Thoughts In A Green Shade won critical acclaim. Brooding Luxuries is a new collection of poems written over four decades, reflecting the author's interests in the odd corners of human experience, his contempt for overweening authority and his great love of life. A frequent performer at open mic sessions and at poetry events, he is fond of underscoring his readings with jazz rhythms when a keyboard is available.
Introducing General Relativity
Introducing General Relativity An accessible and engaging introduction to general relativity for undergraduates In Introducing General Relativity, the authors deliver a structured introduction to the core concepts and applications of General Relativity. The book leads readers from the basic ideas of relativity—including the Equivalence Principle and curved space-time—to more advanced topics, like Solar System tests and gravitational wave detection. Each chapter contains practice problems designed to engage undergraduate students of mechanics, electrodynamics, and special relativity. A wide range of classical and modern topics are covered in detail, from exploring observational successes ...
Coins of Jahangir
A culmination of nearly eight years of extensive research, this book complements the history of Jahangir s Mughal coins with illustrations for a readable reference on the most sought-after Mughal coins, known for their exquisite beauty and craftsmanship. The book includes a catalog section on hundreds of different types of gold coins, silver coins, and copper coins, with images and illustrations for more than 600 total coins. The investigative approach of the author offers an appeal to numismatic scholars and academics in finding answers to some of their most baffling questions, and the book also gives special attention to hobbyists and collectors, including a chapter on forgeries that is especially helpful for new collectors."
