The Little Book of Cosmology
Book • 2020
Written by one of the world's leading experimental cosmologists, this book provides a breathtaking look at our universe on the grandest scales imaginable.
It describes what scientists are revealing through precise measurements of the faint thermal afterglow of the Big Bang, known as the cosmic microwave background (CMB), and how these findings are transforming our view of the cosmos.
The book explains current observations and measurements, how they form the Standard Model of Cosmology, and the ongoing search for deeper knowledge at the field's frontiers, including quests to understand neutrinos, dark energy, and the physics of the very early universe.
