In recent years there has been a steadily increasing
cross-fertilization between cosmology and particle physics, on both
the theoretical and experimental levels. Particle physics has
provided new experimental data from the big accelerators in
operation, and data from space satellites are accumulating rapidly.
Cosmology is still one of the best laboratories for testing
particle theory. The present work discusses such matters in the
context of inflation, strings, dark matter, neutrinos and
gravitational wave physics in the very early universe, field theory
at the Planck scale, and high energy physics. A particular emphasis
has been placed on a new topology for spatial infinity, on the
relation between temperature and gravitational potential, a
canonical formulation of general relativity, the neutrino mass,
spin in the early universe, the measurement of gravity in the
10--100 m range, galaxy--galaxy and cluster--cluster correlation,
black holes, string theory and string/string duality. The work also
presents a beautiful review of high energy elementary particle
physics, treating the meaning, status and perspectives of
unification and standard model gauge couplings.
