The Vindication of the Big Bang: Breakthroughs and Barriers

The Vindication of the Big Bang: Breakthroughs and Barriers by Barry Parker
English | PDF | 1993 | 348 Pages | ISBN : 0306444690 | 25.9 MB

About a year and a half ago a colleague from a nearby university came to ISU to give a talk. His topic was "Why the Big Bang Theory Is Wrong." During his talk he listed the tests that a good cosmology should be able to pass, and he attempted to show that other theories passed the tests just as well as the big bang theory did. He was quite emphatic in his assertion that the big bang theory was no better than certain other theories.

The Little Book of the Big Bang: A Cosmic Primer

The Little Book of the Big Bang: A Cosmic Primer by Craig J. Hogan
English | PDF | 1998 | 188 Pages | ISBN : 0387983856 | 11.3 MB

What do we know about the origins of the Universe, and more important, how do we know it? In a small, easy-to-read package, this book introduces you to all of the important ideas about the Big Bang and its consequences. Craig Hogan explains what happened in the early days of the universe, why we think it's expanding (and how the expansion can look the same from everyplace at once), different ways the universe could end, and the meaning of such terms as "cosmic inflation," "cosmic background radiation," and "dark matter." For everyone who has always wondered just what the cosmologists are talking about but could never find the basics explained clearly and simply, this is the book to read.

The Amazing Unity of the Universe: And Its Origin in the Big Bang

The Amazing Unity of the Universe: And Its Origin in the Big Bang by Edward van den Heuvel
English | PDF (True) | 2016 | 317 Pages | ISBN : 3319235427 | 19.4 MB

In the first chapters the author describes how our knowledge of the position of Earth in space and time has developed, thanks to the work of many generations of astronomers and physicists. He discusses how our position in the Galaxy was discovered, and how in 1929, Hubble uncovered the fact that the Universe is expanding, leading to the picture of the Big Bang. He then explains how astronomers have found that the laws of physics that were discovered here on Earth and in the Solar System (the laws of mechanics, gravity, atomic physics, electromagnetism, etc.) are valid throughout the Universe. This is illustrated by the fact that all matter in the Universe consists of atoms of the same chemical elements that we know on Earth.

Gravitation and Cosmology: From the Hubble Radius to the Planck Scale

Gravitation and Cosmology: From the Hubble Radius to the Planck Scale: Proceedings of a Symposium in Honour of the 80th Birthday of Jean-Pierre Vigier by Richard L. Amoroso, Geoffrey Hunter, Menas Kafatos, Jean-Pierre Vigier
English | PDF | 2002 | 556 Pages | ISBN : 1402008856 | 18.8 MB

Jean-Pierre Vigier continually labeled one of les heretiques de la science, l’eternel resistant et le patriarche is yet a pillar of modern physics and mathematics, with one leg firmly planted in theory and the other in empiricism spanning a career of nearly 60 years with a publication vitae quickly approaching 400! He wrote of his mentor Louis de Broglie “Great physicists fight great battles”, which perhaps applies even more so to 1 Jean-Pierre Vigier himself.

Cosmology and Particle Astrophysics

Cosmology and Particle Astrophysics by Lars Bergström , Ariel Goobar
English | PDF(True) | 2004 | 375 Pages | ISBN : 3540329242 | 4.5 MB

Beginning with some basic facts about the observable universe the authors consider in successive chapters the complete range of topics that make up a degree course in cosmology and particle astrophysics. The outstanding feature of this book is that it is self-contained, in that no specialised knowledge is required on the part of the reader, apart from basic undergraduate mathematics and physics.
