This volume is a collection of the Nobel lectures delivered by the Nobel laureates, together with their biographies and the presentation speeches by Nobel Committee members for the period 2016-2020. The criterion for the Physics award is to the discoverer of a physical phenomenon that changed our views, or to the inventor of a new physical process that gave enormous benefits to either science at large or to the public. The biographies are interesting to read and the Nobel lectures provide detailed explanations of the phenomena for which the laureates were awarded the Nobel Prize.List of Nobel...

This is a collection of lectures given by some of the most prominent theoretical physicists of today. In a form designed to be accessible to the interested general physicist, the book covers topics ranging from the use of field-theoretical methods in different contexts via duality symmetries between various field theories to the Ads/CFT correspondence and cosmology. The book should be of interest to researchers and graduate students in high-energy physics, theoretical physics, astrophysics, cosmology and the history of physics.

Beginning with some basic facts about the observable universe the authors consider in successive chapters the complete range of topics that make up a degree course in cosmology and particle astrophysics. The outstanding feature of this book is that it is self-contained, in that no specialised knowledge is required on the part of the reader, apart from basic undergraduate mathematics and physics.

This paperback edition will again target students of physics, astrophysics and cosmology at the advanced undergraduate level or early graduate level. One of the book's biggest strong points...
