Description

The last decade has witnessed a breathtaking expansion of ideas concerning the origin and evolution of the universe. Researchers in cosmology thus need an unprecedented wide background in diverse areas of physics. Bridging the gap that has developed, Physics of the Early Universe explains the foundations of this subject. This postgraduate-/research-level volume covers cosmology, gauge theories, the standard model, cosmic strings, and supersymmetry.

Table of Contents

Physical cosmology. Basics of gauge theories. Particle phenomenology: The standard model. Grand unified theories. Stationary universe models and cosmic strings. Cosmological perturbations . Supersymmetric cosmology
