Lecture Notes in Cosmology

Abstract

The first version of these lecture notes is based on the hand-written notes I prepared for the cosmology course taught to graduate students of PPGFis and PPGCosmo at the Federal University of Espírito Santo (UFES), starting in 2014. The course covers topics ranging from the evidence for the expanding universe to the anisotropies of the Cosmic Microwave Background. The notes are also available on my personal webpage (https://www.oliverfpiattella.eu) and have been published by Springer. The second version extends and updates the material presented in the first version, and typographical errors and mistakes have also been corrected.

12 Chapters, 366 pages, 57 figures. v2: extended, updated and corrected version
