1:24:14The Kinematics of the Homogeneous Expanding Universe
This lecture, part of MIT's 8.286 'The Early Universe' course, rigorously develops the kinematics of an expanding, homogeneous universe. It details Hubble's Law and explores the subtle distinctions between isotropy and homogeneity in cosmological models.
MIT 8.286 The Early Universe, Fall 2013
In this lecture, the professor first talked about the properties of the universe, then discussed Hubble's Law, gave an example of isotropy without homogeneity, etc.
