Cosmology with MATLAB: Revised with MATLAB Live Scripts

The physics landscape for cosmology has also evolved significantly. In 2013, the Nobel prize was awarded for the discovery of the Higgs boson, a fundamental scalar, and the first and only such fundamental particle. Nobel prizes for cosmological progress were awarded in 2017, 2019, and 2020. The present "standard model" is that the Universe is composed of matter, photons, dark matter and dark energy. New data from surveys such as DESI and new tools such as the Webb telescope and soon the Rubin observatory are yielding a rich new set of observations which will strongly test the cosmological standard model.

With the evolution of MATLAB tools and the backdrop given by nearly a decade of discoveries, this book is a timely and exciting resource for undergraduates, graduates, researchers, and educators in the field of astrophysics and cosmology.
