Modern Physics: Cosmology (Winter 2009)

Stanford Univ. - Modern Physics: Cosmology (Winter 2009). This course consists of 8 video lectures given by Professor Leonard Susskind. The topics covered in this course focus on statistical mechanics: Hubble's law, geometry, FRW equation, expansion radiation, galaxy rotation, dark matter, hyperbolic space, inflation, and vacuum energy.
