Après la mise en service du plus grand accélérateur du monde, le LHC au CERN, cet ouvrage propose une introduction pédagogique aux théories décrivant les particules élémentaires à haute énergie. Des exercices, dont les corrigés sont regroupés en fin d'ouvrage, accompagnent le cours. Ce livre reste accessible aux étudiants en Master qui ne souhaitent pas nécessairement se spécialiser dans la physique théorique.

Cosmology has been transformed by dramatic progress in high-precision observations and theoretical modelling. This book surveys key developments and open issues for graduate students and researchers. Using a relativistic geometric approach, it focuses on the general concepts and relations that underpin the standard model of the Universe. Part I covers foundations of relativistic cosmology whilst Part II develops the dynamical and observational relations for all models of the Universe based on general relativity. Part III focuses on the standard model of cosmology, including inflation, dark matter, dark energy, perturbation theory, the cosmic microwave background, structure formation and gravitational lensing. It also examines modified gravity and inhomogeneity as possible alternatives to dark energy. Anisotropic and inhomogeneous models are described in Part IV, and Part V reviews deeper issues, such as quantum cosmology, the start of the universe and the multiverse proposal.
