The invisible universe :
Papantonopoulos, Lefteris
The invisible universe : dark matter and dark energy / L. Papantonopoulos. - First Edition. - xiii, 436 pages : illustrations (some colours) ; 24 cm. - Lecture notes in physics, 720. 0075-8450 ; .
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Particle Physics Approach to Dark Matter -- LSP as a Candidate for Dark Matter -- On the Direct Detection of Dark Matter -- Galaxy Formation and Dark Matter -- Cosmological Parameters from Galaxy Clusters: An Introduction -- Cosmological Constraints from Galaxy Clustering -- Dark Energy and the Microwave Background-- Models of Dark Energy-- Accelerating Universe: Observational Status and Theoretical Implications-- The Physics of Extra Dimensions -- Dark Energy from Brane-world Gravity -- The Issue of Dark Energy in String Theory -- Modified Gravity Without Dark Matter -- Avoiding Dark Energy with 1/ R Modifications of Gravity.
The nature and essence of Dark Matter and Dark Energy have become the central issue in modern cosmology over the past years as they make up most of the matter and energy content of the known universe. Accordingly, the subject matter is quite naturally tied to other fields such as astroparticle physics, quantum physics and general relativity.
