   PREFACE. This book contains the Rhodes Memorial Lectures delivered at Oxford in the Autumn of 1936, under the general title, `The Observational Approach to Cosmology'. The observable region of space, the region that can be explored with existing instruments, is a sample of the universe. If the sample is fair, its observed characteristics should ...

   Observational Cosmology R.H. Sanders Kapteyn Astronomical Institute, Groningen, The Netherlands Abstract. I discuss the classical cosmological tests– angular size-redshift, flux-redshift, and galaxy number counts– in the light of the cosmology prescribed by the interpretation of the CMB anisotropies. The discussion is somewhat of a primer

   observational cosmology. In the view of many cosmologists, we are just entering an age of precision cosmology, in which the values of the key cosmological parameters will be determined accurately and precisely.As is explained later, it is our ability to measure and understand the CMB that is leading the way into this new era. However,

   As an example, let us calculate how much brighter the Sun is than the Moon: The difference in magnitudes is 26.7 – 12.6 = 14.1 so. R = 2.512 (14.1) = 436,800. The Sun is ~440,000 times brighter than the full Moon. The second gives the magnitude difference between two objects whose brightness ratio is known.

   It also explores the future missions and facilities likely to dominate cosmological research in the future, including radio, X-ray, submillimeter-wave and gravitational wave astronomy. Each chapter contains full-color figures, worked examples and exercises with complete solutions. Clearly identified key facts and equations help students easily ...

   How do we interpret cosmological observations?

   What is a crucial observational test for cosmology?

   • An important such test is obtainingestimates of the age of the universe t0, which is dependent onH0, ›0, and ⁄, and comparing them with estimates of the ages of objects in the universe (determined on astrophysical grounds): Thesis B5: A crucial observational test for cosmology is thatthe age of the universe must be greater than the ages of stars.

   Should cosmology be accessible to observation over the next decade?

   • This book has provided an introductory account of many of the most important topics in modern cosmology. As you’ve seen, there remain a number of unresolved issues, many of which should however be accessible to observation over the next decade as astronomical instrumentation continues to improve. Here is a brief summary of what we’ve learned.
