Inhaltsangabe

This volwne is the proceedings of the third school in particle astrophysics that Schramm and Galeotti have organized at Erice. The focus of thirs third school was the Generation of Cosmological Large-Scale Structure. It was held in November of 1996. The fIrst school in the series was on "Gauge Theory and the Early Universe" in May 1986, the second was on "Dark Matter in the Universe" in May 1988. All three schools have been successful under the auspices of the NATO Advanced Study Institute. This volume is thus the third in the series of the proceedings of these schools. The choice of the topic for this third school was natural, since the problem of generating a large-scale structure has become the most pressing problem in cosmology today. In particular, it is this generation of structure that is the interface between astronomical observations and particle models for the early universe. To date, all models for generating structures inevitably require new fundamental physics beyond the standard, SU x SU X U , model of high energy physics. The 3 2 I seeds for generating structures usually invoke unifIcation physics, and the matter needed to clump and form them seems to require particle properties that have not been seen in laboratories to date.

Reseña del editor

The generation of large-scale cosmological structures has become one of the most pressing problems in modern cosmology. This structure generation has become the interface between astronomical observations and particle models of the early universe. The seeds for the generation of structure usually involve unification physics, and the matter needed to clump and form the structures seems to require particle properties that have not been seen in laboratories to date. New astronomical observations seem to be discovering larger structures with high peculiar velocities, while observation of the microwave background anisotropy made with the COBE satellite, balloons, and ground-based experiments place tight constraints on possible primordial density fluctuation scenarios. The book deals with a very active and exciting subject and the contributions are from leaders in the field. The intended readership is graduate students and researchers in cosmology, astronomy, astrophysics and particle physics.
