<p>From the first fractions of a second after the Big Bang to today’s dark matter puzzle, this course takes you on a fast, rigorous tour of modern cosmology and astroparticle physics. Learn the principles that connect the Universe’s origin, composition, and fate.</p><p>Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics is a course on master and doctoral studies level. The course builds a modern, unified picture of the Universe through the lens of particle physics and cosmology. It develops the theoretical tools to follow cosmic history - from the hot Big Bang to the present expansion - showing how microphysical laws shape large-scale structure. </p><p>You will learn the core ingredients of the standard cosmological model, such as Hubble law, Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) geometry, energy components and their dynamics. You will also learn how early-Universe thermodynamics drives key milestones such as Big Bang nucleosynthesis. </p><p>Foundational links to astroparticle physics are treated throughout: the evidence for and modelling of dark matter, the role of dark energy in cosmic acceleration, and how particle processes leave relics that we can test today. </p><p>Why should you take this course? It combines first-principles derivations at the blackboard with problem-driven practice, preparing you for research-level study in cosmology, astrophysics, or high-energy theory. </p><p> </p>
Admission to the course requires 90 credits in physics and 45 credits in mathematics, or a bachelor's degree in physics or equivalent, including knowledge equivalent to FYTN18, Theoretical Physics: Theoretical Particle Physics, 7.5 credits. English 6/B and general entry requirements.
