Understanding the Universe: The Physics of the Cosmos from Quasars
to Quarks explores how all areas of physics, from the very smallest
scales to the very largest, come together to form our current
understanding of the Universe. It takes readers on a fascinating
journey, from the Big Bang and how the Universe has evolved, to how
it appears now, and the possibilities for how it will continue to
evolve in the future. It also explores the latest exciting
developments in the area and how they impact our understanding of
the Universe, such as quantum chromodynamics, black holes, dark
energy, and gravitational waves. Equally importantly, it explains
how we have come to know all of this about the Universe and details
the limitations of our current understanding. This book is
accessible to all introductory undergraduate students interested in
the physical sciences. It prioritises a non-mathematical approach
so it can be understood by all students, with only two algebraic
equations in the book and any numerical calculations shown are
limited to simple arithmetic. Key Features: Combines current
understanding of quantum physics and cosmology, and includes the
latest exciting developments from the field. Provides an accessible
introduction to the topic, focusing on a non-mathematical
presentation. Presents a comprehensive narrative on the subject and
a coherent story.
