Particle Astrophysics, Second Edition

Zusatztext The real strength of this book lies in the linking particle physics with astrophysics, right from the start. I would especially reccommend this book for senior students. Informationen zum Autor D. H. Perkins is Emeritus Professor of Physics at the University of Oxford. Klappentext How did our universe begin? An understanding of the development of the early universe brings together the subjects of particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. This text involves the student in this rapidly growing field of research. Zusammenfassung How did our universe begin?
