Description

The Early Universe has become the standard reference on forefront topics in cosmology, particularly to the early history of the Universe. Subjects covered include primordial nubleosynthesis, baryogenesis, phases transitions, inflation, dark matter, and galaxy formation, relics such as axions, neutrinos and monopoles, and speculations about the Universe at the Planck time. The book includes more than ninety figures as well as a five-page update discussing recent developments such as the COBE results.

Editorial Reviews: About the Author Edward Kolb

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This is the old print. Has a very good but brief description. Not a good book for beginners. If you know your cosmology well this will broaden your horizon.

⭐Excellent book. If you want to learn how to link particle physics to Cosmology and Astroparticles this is the book you need to read.

⭐Received slighty worn used copy even though I ordered and paid for a new copy.The book itself is a great introduction even if slightly outdated in some parts

⭐The Early Universe is an awesome book. It’s like a bible for astroparticle physicists like myself. The book arrived as promised and it is almost brand new! pretty good shape!

⭐These guys are legends, and this is a great book that explains clearly the physics of the early universe.

⭐old but with still relevant experimentally applicable models. The book resonates

⭐great price, great quality

⭐The Early Universe provides an excellent introduction to the topics it covers, including the standard big bang cosmology, baryogenesis and inflation. I read Dodelson’s Modern Cosmology before this text, and the two compliment each other. The Early Universe provides a more complete and physically intuitive description of the standard big bang cosmology, including the role of thermodynamics, nucleosynthesis and out-of-equilibrium dynamics. Because of the attention to the “background” dynamics, and also to baryogenesis, phase transitions, inflation, and other applications of high energy physics, one gets a better sense of the “bigger picture” with Kolb and Turner’s text. On the other hand, The Early Universe lacks any technical discussion of metric perturbations and CMB analysis, which are important components of much current research. These are highly emphasized in Dodelson’s text. For appropriate topics, I have found The Early Universe to be a very good reference.

⭐Spedizione di Amazon puntuale come sempre.Il libro è uno dei primi testi di raccordo tra cosmologia e fisica delle particelle.Datato?forse, ma comunque da avere e leggere. Consigliatissimo.

⭐The original book itself is a famous classical book of cosmology. What is wrong is that in making Kindle version of the book, all mathematical equations in the book are deformed or changed or what? That is you cannot use this Kindle version as a text book of cosmology! Be careful!

⭐Even though the book is in a good condition (of course it is brand new), The book is using thick paper, which makes the book hard to be opened, which mean, I regret buying this book, since studying in such a book is difficult.

⭐この本は教科書というよりはどちらかというとレファレンス的な用い方をすることが多いようです。教科書の中を見てみてもわかるとおり式を詳しく導出するのは少なく、結果と考察が多く書かれています。従って学部生や初めて宇宙論をやろうという人にはむいてません。それで星を一つおとしています。しかし宇宙論を目指すなら必ず手にする本です。買って損はなし!
