Structures in the Universe by Exact Methods Formation, Evolution, Interactions

“Structures in the Universe by Exact Methods Formation, Evolution, Interactions” by Krzysztof Bolejko, published by Cambridge University Press in 2010, offers a comprehensive examination of the structures within the universe as they are mapped on larger scales. This edition, consisting of 242 pages, delves into the significance of inhomogeneous models in analyzing and understanding cosmic structures, emphasizing their role in cosmology and the application of Einstein’s field equations.
Readers will find a thorough review of key developments in the use of inhomogeneous solutions to study the evolution of structures such as galaxy clusters and galaxies with central black holes. The book addresses various cosmological observations, including supernovae dimming and the cosmic microwave background, while exploring the implications of inhomogeneities across different scales. This work serves as a valuable resource for astrophysicists and researchers in cosmology, catering to both graduate students and academic professionals.
Official synopsis Publisher
As the structures in our Universe are mapped out on ever larger scales, and with increasing detail, the use of inhomogeneous models is becoming an essential tool for analyzing and understanding them. This book reviews a number of important developments in the application of inhomogeneous solutions of Einstein’s field equations to cosmology. It shows how inhomogeneous models can be employed to study the evolution of structures such as galaxy clusters and galaxies with central black holes, and to account for cosmological observations like supernovae dimming, the cosmic microwave background, baryon acoustic oscillations or the dependence of the Hubble parameter on redshift within classical general relativity. Whatever `dark matter’ and `dark energy’ turn out to be, inhomogeneities exist on many scales and need to be investigated with all appropriate methods. This book is of great value to all astrophysicists and researchers working in cosmology, from graduate students to academic researchers.
