This book discusses many of the recent theoretical and observational developments that have significant implications for astronomy and astrophysics. The main themes are (i) cosmology, (ii) gravitational wave astronomy and gravitational physics, (iii) stellar astrophysics, and (iv) active galactic nuclei and disk accretion. There are also contributions on the solar system. Contents: Cosmology: New Cosmological Data and the OCyBest-FitOCO Universe (O Lahav); Measuring the Universe with the Cosmic Microwave Background (D Barbosa & M Chu); Initial Conditions for Hybrid Inflation (L E Mendes & A R Liddle); The Density Parameter in Scalar Field Cosmologies (J P Mimoso & A Nunes); Relativistic Astr...
Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute, Cambridge, UK, 26th July-6th August 1999
This NATO Advanced Study Institute provided an up dated understanding, from a fundamental and deep point of view, of the progress and current problems in the early universe, cosmic microwave background radiation, large scale structure, dark matter problem, and the interplay between them. The focus was placed on the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation. Emphasis was given to the mutual impact of fundamental physics and cosmology, both at theoretical and experimental-or observational-levels, within a deep and well defined programme, and a global unifying view, which, in addition, provides of careful inter-disciplinarity. Special Lectures were devoted to neutrinos in astrophysics and high ener...
