Samlet oversigt over tid og sted for alle kurser inden for Lektionsplan for Det Naturvidenskabelige Fakultet Efterår 2012 NAT |
| Undervisnings- periode: |
19. november 2012 til 27. januar 2013 |
| Formål: |
The purpose of the course is for the students to understand the basic theories of the modern cosmology:
the theory of inflation, the theory of the dark matter and the dark energy formation in combination with
the physics of the cosmological gravitation waves and the black holes. The specific of the course is that
in addition to the modern theoretical approaches the students will have practical experience with the data
from operating space (the WMAP) and planning (the PLANCK) experiments, and particle accelerators data.
This course is central for any later course or projects where an understanding of the modern
cosmology is required. |
| Indhold: |
In the lectures, the basic principles of the modern field theory in implementation to the fundamental
problems of the modern cosmology are taught. Then, it is explained how these principles are used in the
modern theory of inflation for explanation fundamental properties of the space and time. Using the
prediction of the inflationary cosmology we will discuss the models of the dark matter and the dark energy in the
Universe, comming to the observational tests. We will use the CMB data to understand the
observational status of the inflation and perform various analytical and computation calculations , using object
oriented programming. |
| Kompetence- beskrivelse: |
The student will after the course know the basic theories of the modern cosmology and high energy physics, will have an experience in the gravitational waves physics. From practical excercises the
student will have gained experience in writing simple analytical and computational calculations and
in analysing and visualising real and simulated data with computers. |
| Målbeskrivelse: |
The grade 12 is given to a student who has shown clear understanding of the
theoretical and experimantal aspects covered in the course, independence and
initiative during the exercises, and has achieved all the goals mentioned above,
The grade 2 is given to a student who has achieved only minimally the course.
To achieve the goals of the course and exam the students should know:
* Basic principles of the Bing Bang theory. Classification of epochs of the
cosmological expansion.
* Cosmological solutions for scalar factor for different equations of state of the
matter.
* Motivation for Inflation. Basic equation of evolution of the vacuum state of the
matter in the Universe.
* Solution of fundamental problems of the cosmology in the theory of inflation (
initial conditions of inflation, particle horizon, origin of the primordial
perturbations, creation of matter due to decay of inflaton)
* Origin of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). Testing the theory of inflation
by the modern CMB experiments (the WMAP and the PLANCK) .
* Possible explanation of the origin of the Dark Matter and the Dark Energy and
corresponding uncertainties.

Studens will be provided, a few weeks before the exam, with a set of questions regarding the topics
of the course. The answer to one of the topics of the course will constitute the basis of a 15 minutes
presentation the students, on the day of the exam. graded acording to the 7 step scale and with internal censorship.
Reexam will be held as the ordinary exam. |
