Primordial inflation explains why the universe is accelerating today
Edward W. Kolb, Sabino Matarrese, Alessio Notari +1
We propose an explanation for the present accelerated expansion of the universe that does not invoke dark energy or a modification of gravity and is firmly rooted in inflationary c…
Particle Physics in the Early Universe
Edward W. Kolb
Two introductory lectures on inflation and dark matter presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Techniques and Concepts of High-Energy Physics.
Cosmic Microwave Background Observations as a Way to Discriminate Among Inflation Models
William H. Kinney, Scott Dodelson, Edward W. Kolb
The upcoming satellite missions MAP and Planck will measure the spectrum of fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background with unprecedented accuracy. We discuss the prospect of…
Inflation in the Postmodern Era
Edward W. Kolb
In this lecture I will review some recent progress in improving the accuracy of the calculation of density perturbations resulting from inflation.
Reconstructing the Inflaton Potential
Edward W Kolb, Mark Abney, Edmund J Copeland +2
A review is presented of recent work by the authors concerning the use of large scale structure and microwave background anisotropy data to determine the potential of the inflaton…
Particle Physics and Cosmology
Edward W. Kolb
Lectures presented at the 42nd Scottish Universities Summer School in Physics, St. Andrews, Scotland, August 1993.
