About this book
Cosmology by Daniel Baumann is a self-contained textbook for the advanced undergraduate or starting graduate level, expanded from the author’s lecture notes. Cambridge University Press published this 477-page hardcover in 2022.
The book presents the theoretical foundations of cosmology and the observations that have turned it into a precision science. After describing the dynamics of the homogeneous universe, it traces the evolution of small density fluctuations, created quantum mechanically during inflation and observed today in the cosmic microwave background and the large-scale structure of the universe. Many worked examples, figures and homework problems are included.
The publisher describes it as suited to use as a course companion or for self-study by advanced students in physics, astronomy and applied mathematics.
