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, Quantum Vacuum and Zeta Functions In Honor of Emilio Elizalde

Cosmology, Quantum Vacuum and Zeta Functions: In Honor of Emilio Elizalde by Sergey D. Odintsov, Diego Sáez-Gómez, Sebastian Xambó-Descamps
English | PDF (True) | 2011 | 379 Pages | ISBN : 3642197590 | 7.95 MB

Some major developments of physics in the last three decades are addressed by highly qualified specialists in different specific fields. They include renormalization problems in QFT, vacuum energy fluctuations and the Casimir effect in different configurations, and a wealth of applications. A number of closely related issues are also considered. The cosmological applications of these theories play a crucial role and are at the very heart of the book; in particular, the possibility to explain in a unified way the whole history of the evolution of the Universe: from primordial inflation to the present day accelerated expansion. Further, a description of the mathematical background underlying many of the physical theories considered above is provided. This includes the uses of zeta functions in physics, as in the regularization problems in QFT already mentioned, specifically in curved space-time, and in Casimir problems as.

Gravitation and Modern Cosmology: The Cosmological Constants Problem

Gravitation and Modern Cosmology: The Cosmological Constants Problem by Antonino Zichichi, Venzo Sabbata, Norma Sánchez
English | PDF | 1991 | 232 Pages | ISBN : 0306440547 | 18.67 MB

Peter Gabriel Bergmann started his work on general relativity in 1936 when he moved from Prague to the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Bergmann collaborated with Einstein in an attempt to provide a geometrical unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism. Within this program they wrote two articles together: A. Einstein and P. G. Bergmann, Ann. Math. 39, 685 (1938) ; and A. Einstein, V. Bargmann and P. G. Bergmann, Th. von Karman Anniversary Volume 212 (1941).

Confluence of Cosmology, Massive Neutrinos, Elementary Particles, and Gravitation

Confluence of Cosmology, Massive Neutrinos, Elementary Particles, and Gravitation by Behram N. Kursunoglu, Stephan L. Mintz, Arnold Perlmutter
English | PDF | 2002 | 249 Pages | ISBN : 0306462087 | 4.84 MB

Just before the preliminary program of Orbis Scientiae 1998 went to press the news in physics was suddenly dominated by the discovery that neutrinos are, after all, massive particles. This was predicted by some physicists including Dr. Behram Kusunoglu, who had apaper published on this subject in 1976 in the Physical Review. Massive neutrinos do not necessarily simplify the physics of elementary particles but they do give elementary particle physics a new direction. If the dark matter content of the universe turns out to consist of neutrinos, the fact that they are massive should make an impact on cosmology.

Statistical Geometry and Applications to Microphysics and Cosmology

Statistical Geometry and Applications to Microphysics and Cosmology by Sisir Roy
English | PDF | 1998 | 262 Pages | ISBN : 0792349075 | 20.7 MB

Recent results from high-energy scattering and theoretical developments of string theory require a change in our understanding of the basic structure of space-time. This book is about the advancement of ideas on the stochastic nature of space-time from the 1930s onward. In particular, the author promotes the concept of space as a set of hazy lumps, first introduced by Karl Menger, and constructs a novel framework for statistical behaviour at the microlevel. The various chapters address topics such as space-time fluctuation and random potential, non-local fields, and the origin of stochasticity. Implications in astro-particle physics and cosmology are also explored.

Fundamentals of Cosmology

Fundamentals of Cosmology by James Rich
English | PDF (True) | 2001 | 311 Pages | ISBN : 3642074618 | 28.16 MB

This is a textbook intended for students and researchers who wish to under­ stand the physics of standard "big bang" cosmology and how it is used to interpret the most recent observations. It is based on courses given over the last seven years to beginning graduate students at the University of Paris and to advanced undergraduates at l'Ecole Poly technique. Since the great major­ ity of these students did not intend to become professional cosmologists, I have emphasized subjects that should be of general interest. Progress in observations over the last ten years has been truly astounding and a new textbook might be justified simply to report on recent break­ throughs. The traditional successes of modern cosmology are well-known. Among these are the dynamical understanding of the universal expansion, the prediction of the cosmic microwave background radiation, and the calculation of the abundances of the light elements. To these we can add new observa­ tions that suggest that we are beginning the era of "precision cosmology.

Black Holes, Gravitational Radiation and the Universe: Essays in Honor of C.V. Vishveshwara by Bala R. Iyer, Biplab Bhawal
English | PDF | 1999 | 581 Pages | ISBN : 0792353080 | 57.2 MB

Our esteemed colleague C. V. Vishveshwara, popularly known as Vishu, turned sixty on 6th March 1998. His colleagues and well wishers felt that it would be appropriate to celebrate the occasion by bringing out a volume in his honour. Those of us who have had the good fortune to know Vishu, know that he is unique, in a class by himself. Having been given the privilege to be the volume's editors, we felt that we should attempt something different in this endeavour. Vishu is one of the well known relativists from India whose pioneer­ ing contributions to the studies of black holes is universally recognised.

closer in recent years, and new ideas and developments in one field are strictly connected with the new ideas and developments in the other field. Roughly speaking, many different subdisciplines of physics. seem to converge in cosmology, the study of the early evolution of the universe. The range of parameters (dimensions, temperatures, densities, etc ••• ) to be taken into account in cosmology is so vast that one is forced to use theories or experimental data of wide ranging origin.
