Mathematical cosmology seeks to explain the often complicated theories of our universe. This book seeks to give readers a quantitative understanding of some important aspects of general relativistic cosmology starting only with school math and Newtonian ideas in physics. 309 pages. Concerned mainly with various models about large-scale structure of universe Friedmann models, steady-state models, & models involving pressure Special relativity Red-shift magnitude relations Radio source counts Olbers’ paradox (why is the sky dark?), horizons and cosmological coincidences.
