Articles<\/span><\/h1>\r\n
\r\n

Kruesi, L. \u201cCosmology: 5 Things You Need to Know.\u201d Astronomy<\/em> (May 2007): 28. Five questions students often ask, and how modern cosmologists answer them.<\/p>\r\n

Kruesi, L. \u201cHow Planck Has Redefined the Universe.\u201d Astronomy<\/em> (October 2013): 28. Good review of what this space mission has told us about the CMB and the universe.<\/p>\r\n

Lineweaver, C. & Davis, T. \u201cMisconceptions about the Big Bang.\u201d Scientific American<\/em> (March 2005): 36. Some basic ideas about modern cosmology clarified, using general relativity.<\/p>\r\nNadis, S. \u201cSizing Up Inflation.\u201d Sky & Telescope<\/em> (November 2005): 32. Nice review of the origin and modern variants on the inflationary idea.\r\n\r\nNadis, S. \u201cHow We Could See Another Universe.\u201d Astronomy<\/em> (June 2009): 24. On modern ideas about multiverses and how such bubbles of space-time might collide.\r\n\r\nNadis, S. \u201cDark Energy\u2019s New Face: How Exploding Stars Are Changing our View.\u201d Astronomy<\/em> (July 2012): 45. About our improving understanding of the complexities of type Ia supernovae.\r\n\r\nNaze, Y. \u201cThe Priest, the Universe, and the Big Bang.\u201d Astronomy<\/em> (November 2007): 40. On the life and work of Georges Lema\u00eetre.\r\n

Panek, R. \u201cGoing Over to the Dark Side.\u201d Sky & Telescope<\/em> (February 2009): 22. A history of the observations and theories about dark energy.<\/p>\r\n

Pendrick, D. \u201cIs the Big Bang in Trouble?\u201d Astronomy<\/em> (April 2009): 48. This sensationally titled article is really more of a quick review of how modern ideas and observations are fleshing out the Big Bang hypothesis (and raising questions.)<\/p>\r\n

Reddy, F. \u201cHow the Universe Will End.\u201d Astronomy<\/em> (September 2014): 38. Brief discussion of local and general future scenarios.<\/p>\r\nRiess, A. and Turner, M. \u201cThe Expanding Universe: From Slowdown to Speedup.\u201d Scientific American<\/em> (September 2008): 62.\r\n\r\nTurner, M. \u201cThe Origin of the Universe.\u201d Scientific American<\/em> (September 2009): 36. An introduction to modern cosmology.\r\n\r\n<\/section>
