内容説明
The question of how cosmic structures came into being has intrigued both experimentalists and theoreticians for many years. Recent spectacular breakthroughs, such as the discovery by the COBE satellite in 1992 of fluctuations in the temperature of the cosmic background, have both increased our understanding and accelerated the pace of research in this stimulating area. This volume presents a modern introduction to a complex subject, and attempts to form a bridge between introductory and advanced material. It is accessible to advanced undergraduates and beginning postgraduates, but also contains a wealth of material which will be of interest to established researchers.
