1. Gravitational perturbations in plasmas and cosmology
Sammanfattning : Gravitational perturbations can be in the form of scalars, vectors or tensors. This thesis focuses on the evolution of scalar perturbations in cosmology, and interactions between tensor perturbations, in the form of gravitational waves, and plasma waves. LÄS MER
2. Spectral Properties of Type Ia Supernovae and Implications for Cosmology
Sammanfattning : Type Ia supernovae can, for a short period of time, reach the same brightness as an entire galaxy. They are responsible for the creation of a large fraction of all heavy elements and can be used, as standard candles, to prove that the expansion of the universe is accelerating. Yet, we do not fully understand them. LÄS MER
3. Observations of distant supernovae and cosmological implications
Sammanfattning : Type Ia supernovae can be used as distance indicators for probing the expansion history of the Universe. The method has proved to be an efficient tool in cosmology and played a decisive role in the discovery of a yet unknown energy form, dark energy, that drives the accelerated expansion of the Universe. LÄS MER
4. Relativistic fireworks cosmology
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
5. Type Ia Supernova Cosmology : Quantitative Spectral Analysis
Sammanfattning : Type Ia supernovae have been successfully used as standardized candles to study the expansion history of the Universe. In the past few years, these studies led to the exciting result of an accelerated expansion caused by the repelling action of some sort of dark energy. LÄS MER
