L’univers tel qu’on l’observe	Quelques ordres de grandeur de distances
Lexique	Lexique général Astronomie Unités Cosmologie Électromagnétisme Personnes Physique générale Relativité
Bases de cosmologie	L’univers est en expansion... La constante de Hubble Que signifie exactement « L’univers est en expansion » ? Le concept de distance dans un univers en expansion L’univers est-il fini ou inifini ? A-t-il une « taille » ? Le devenir de l’expansion de l’univers ... donc l’univers a une histoire L’histoire thermique de l’univers Jusqu’à quelle époque peut-on remonter ? Le fond diffus cosmologique Pourquoi la nuit est-elle noire ? Qu’est-ce qu’un horizon ? Le contenu et la structure à grande échelle de l’univers La répartition de la matière dans l’univers Quelles formes de matière existent aujourd’hui dans l’univers ? Quelques concepts Effet Doppler sonore et lumineux Spectre électromagnétique Spectres d’émission et d’absorbtion Spectre de corps noir L’échelle de luminosité apparente des objets astrophysiques En savoir plus Effet Doppler - cas classique Comment déterminer que la force de gravitation est proportionnelle à l’inverse du carré de la distance ? Effet Doppler - cas relativiste Retour sur le paradoxe d’Olbers Les distances dans un univers en expansion L’expansion de l’univers - un exemple Newtonien L’expansion de l’univers - les équations de Friedmann Comment l’expansion augmente-t-elle les distances sans dilater les objets ? Pourquoi une constante cosmologique agit-elle comme une force répulsive ? Expansion éternelle ou Big Crunch ? La température de l’univers au cours de son évolution La présence d’horizons dans l’univers selon son évolution Le principe de relativité galiléenne et la mécanique classique La gravitation universelle selon Newton Un peu de Relativité Restreinte Un peu de Relativité Générale

Primary fluctuations	What is the CMB and why is it useful Maps and spectra The physics behind what is observed The present lore: the minimal cosmological model The physics of the CMB peaks The physics of CMB peaks - I. Influence of the baryon density The physics of CMB peaks - II. Influence of the Dark Matter density The physics of CMB peaks - III. Influence of what happens after recombination The "initial conditions": The predictions from inflation Why peaks? What can be observed in the CMB fluctuations Matter content of the universe
