This forms the background to a detailed study of the origin of structure and galaxies in the Universe. The derivations of many of the most important results are described using simple physical arguments which illuminate the results of more advanced treatments. A very wide range of recent observational data is brought to bear upon the problems, including the results from the Hubble Space Telescope, the Planck mission of the European Space Agency, galaxy surveys such as the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, the ALMA submillimetre observatory, studies of Type 1a supernovae and many other remarkable recent observations. This book serves as an ideal text for graduate level courses on astrophysical cosmology and is also highly appreciated as a reference source for professional astrophysicist and cosmologists. 001463312 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001463312 650_0 $$aGalaxies$$xFormation. 001463312 650_0 $$aCosmology. 001463312 650_0 $$aAstrophysics. 001463312 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001463312 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aLongair, Malcolm S., 1941-$$tGalaxy formation.$$bThird edition.$$dBerlin : Springer, 2022$$z9783662658901$$w(OCoLC)1348997148 001463312 830_0 $$aAstronomy and astrophysics library. 001463312 852__ $$bebk 001463312 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-662-65891-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001463312 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1463312$$pGLOBAL_SET 001463312 980__ $$aBIB 001463312 980__ $$aEBOOK 001463312 982__ $$aEbook 001463312 983__ $$aOnline 001463312 994__ $$a92$$bISE
