String Cosmology versus Standard and Inflationary Cosmology
This paper presents a review of the basic, model-independent differences between the pre-big bang scenario, arising naturally in a string cosmology context, and the standard inflationary scenario. We use an unconventional approach in which the introduction of technical details is avoided as much as possible, trying to focus the reader’s attention on the main conceptual aspects of both scenarios...
متن کاملCosmology: Standard and Inflationary
In these lectures, I review the standard hot Big Bang cosmology, emphasizing its successes, its shortcomings, and its major challenges|developing a detailed understanding of the formation of structure in the universe and identifying the constituents of the ubiquitous dark matter. I then discuss the motivations for|and the fundamentals of|in ationary cosmology, particularly emphasizing the quant...
متن کاملIntroduction to Inflationary Cosmology
The early universe according to the big bang and the grand unified theories is discussed. The shortcomings of big bang are summarized together with their resolution by inflationary cosmology. Inflation, the subsequent oscillation and decay of the inflaton, and the resulting ‘reheating’ of the universe are studied. The density perturbations produced by inflation and the temperature fluctuations ...
متن کاملCosmology in Flat Space-Time
Flat space-time has not heretofore been thought a suitable locus in which to construct model universes because of the presumed necessity of incorporating gravitation in such models and because of the historical lack of a theory of gravitation in flat spacetime. It is here shown that a Lorentz-invariant theory of gravitation can be formulated by incorporating in it the mass-energy relation. Such...
متن کاملComments on Inflationary Cosmology
In this talk we will discuss three different issues. First of all, there exist several proposals how to solve cosmological problems by adiabatic expansion of the Universe of a specific type, without any use of inflation. We explain why these models do not solve the flatness/entropy problem. On the other hand there exist some claims that inflation also does not solve the flatness problem. We sho...
