Physical Foundations of Cosmology and the Evolution of the Universe

Special Relativity and Spacetime → Observational Techniques in Astrophysics

This learning path guides advanced learners through the physical principles underlying modern cosmology, from the geometry of spacetime to the large-scale structure and evolution of the universe. It covers general relativity, thermodynamics, and astrophysical foundations, then builds up to the Friedmann equations, the early universe, the cosmic microwave background, and the roles of dark matter and dark energy.
