Cosmology has become a very active research field in the last
decades thanks to the impressing improvement of our observational
techniques which have led to landmark discoveries such as the
accelerated expansion of the universe, and have put physicists in
front of new mysteries to unveil, such as the quest after the
nature of dark matter and dark energy. These notes offer an
approach to cosmology, covering fundamental topics in the field:
the expansion of the universe, the thermal history, the evolution
of small cosmological perturbations and the anisotropies in the
cosmic microwave background radiation. Some extra topics are
presented in the penultimate chapter and some standard results of
physics and mathematics are available in the last chapter in order
to provide a self-contained treatment. These notes offer an
in-depth account of the above-mentioned topics and are aimed to
graduate students who want to build an expertise in cosmology.
