商品描述

Cosmic inflation and dark energy hold the key to the origin and the eventual fate of the Universe. Despite the increasing prominence of these subjects in research and teaching over the past decade or more, no introductory textbook dedicated to these topics has been previously published. Dr. Konstantinos Dimopoulos is a highly regarded expert in the field, and an experienced communicator of the subject to students. In this book, he provides advanced undergraduate and early graduate students with an accessible introduction and equips them with the tools they need to understand the cosmology of cosmic inflation and dark energy.

Features:

  • Provides a concise, pedagogical "crash course" in big bang cosmology, focusing on the dynamics and the history of the Universe, with an emphasis on the role of dark energy

  • Chapters contain questions and problems for readers to test their understanding

  • The first book to make cosmic inflation and dark energy accessible to students

商品描述(中文翻譯)

宇宙膨脹和暗能量是宇宙起源及最終命運的關鍵。儘管在過去十年或更長的時間內，這些主題在研究和教學中的重要性日益增加，但之前並未出版專門針對這些主題的入門教科書。康斯坦丁·迪莫波洛斯博士是該領域備受推崇的專家，並且在向學生傳達這一主題方面具有豐富的經驗。在本書中，他為高年級本科生和早期研究生提供了一個易於理解的介紹，並為他們提供了理解宇宙膨脹和暗能量宇宙學所需的工具。

特色：
- 提供一個簡明的教學性「速成課程」，專注於大爆炸宇宙學的動力學和宇宙歷史，特別強調暗能量的角色。
- 各章節包含問題和練習，供讀者測試他們的理解。
- 首本使宇宙膨脹和暗能量對學生變得易於理解的書籍。

作者簡介

Konstantinos Dimopoulos, presently Reader in Physics at Lancaster University, obtained his undergraduate degree in Physics from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 1992. He continued his studies in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP) of the University of Cambridge (Darwin College), where he obtained the Certificate of Advanced Study in Mathematics in 1994 and his PhD in Particle Cosmology in 1998 under the supervision of Professor A.C. Davis. Dr. Dimopoulos had several post-doctoral appointments in the framework of EU Research Training Network Programmes, in the Instituto de Fisica Corpuscular (IFIC) in Valencia, Spain (1999-2001) and in the Physics Department of Lancaster University, Lancaster, UK (2001-2003). In 2003, he obtained a four-year Research Associate Fellowship in the Institute of Nuclear Physics of the National Centre for Scientific Research 'Demokritos' in Athens, Greece, which he interrupted in 2004 when he was offered a staff position in the Physics Department of Lancaster University. His research interests centre around the physics of the very early Universe, in particular on particle cosmology, cosmic inflation, quintessential inflation, and cosmic vector fields.

康斯坦丁諾斯·迪莫波洛斯（Konstantinos Dimopoulos）目前是蘭卡斯特大學的物理學講師，他於1992年在塞薩洛尼基亞里士多德大學獲得物理學學士學位。隨後，他在劍橋大學應用數學與理論物理系（Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, DAMTP）繼續深造，於1994年獲得數學高級研究證書，並在1998年在A.C. Davis教授的指導下獲得粒子宇宙學博士學位。迪莫波洛斯博士曾在歐盟研究訓練網絡計劃框架下擔任多個博士後職位，包括在西班牙瓦倫西亞的粒子物理研究所（Instituto de Fisica Corpuscular, IFIC）（1999-2001）和英國蘭卡斯特大學物理系（2001-2003）。2003年，他在希臘雅典的國家科學研究中心“德莫克里托斯”核物理研究所獲得為期四年的研究助理獎學金，但在2004年因獲得蘭卡斯特大學物理系的教職而中斷。其研究興趣集中於非常早期宇宙的物理，特別是粒子宇宙學、宇宙膨脹、典範膨脹和宇宙向量場。
