'Cosmic Paradoxes' was an outcome of a Conference-Summer Course on 'Astrophysical Cosmology: Frontier Questions' held at El Escorial, Madrid, on August 16-19, 1993. The Scientific Directors were John C Mather, Director of NASA's COBE (Cosmic Background Radiation Explorer), and Jose M Torroja, Secretary of the Spanish Academy of Sciences. Julio A Gonzalo, UAM, was in charge of coordinating the event. The first speaker was Ralph A Alpher, one of the pioneers who predicted very early the CBR (Cosmic Background Radiation). The CBR was observed by A Penzias and R Wilson, Bell Telephone Labs, in 1965. Thereafter it was measured with unprecedented precision by the COBE in 1989, characterizing the Planck spectral distribution of the CBR (J C Mather) and detecting its minute anisotropies (G Smoot). In 2003 the WMAP, NASA's satellite successor of the COBE, confirmed COBE's results, and gave an excellent quantitative estimate of the 'age' of the universe as 13.7 ± 0.2 Gyrs, in support of the Big Bang theory of cosmic origins.In the Third Edition of this book, almost coincident with the launch reports of NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), includes recent work discussing evidence in favor of an open finite universe. A further discussion of the Heisenberg-Lemaitre time (Appendix D) takes into consideration that the cosmic expansion velocity at very early times is Ṙ(yHL)≫c and reviews in more detail the thermal history of the universe.

Beginning with the famous Olber's paradox, paradoxes such as the missing mass, dark energy, baryon to photon ratio and cosmic zero-point energy are examined in detail. The Heisenberg-Lemaitre's units, based on the total enormous but finite mass of the Universe, are introduced and rigorous solutions of Einstein's cosmological equations for an open Universe with cosmological constant are obtained. Energy conservation after the Big Bang is consistently required.This book discusses such paradoxes in depth with physical and logical content and historical perspective, and has not too technical content in order to serve a wide audience. In the second edition, the content is updated and new sections are added.

This book provides a mathematical and numerical analysis of many problems which lead to paradoxes in contemporary cosmology, in particular, the existence of dark matter and dark energy. It is shown that these hypothetical quantities arise from excessive extrapolations of simple mathematical models to the whole physical universe. Written in a completely different style to most books on General Relativity and cosmology, the important results take the form of mathematical theorems with precise assumptions and statements. All theorems are followed by a corresponding proof, or an exact reference to the proof. Some nonstandard topics are also covered, including violation of the causality principle in Newtonian mechanics, a critical mathematical and numerical analysis of Mercury's perihelion shift, inapplicability of Einstein's equations to the classical two-body problem due to computational complexity, non-uniqueness of the notion of universe, the topology of the universe, various descriptions of a hypersphere, regular tessellations of hyperbolic spaces, local Hubble expansion of the universe, neglected gravitational redshift in the detection of gravitational waves, and the possible distribution of mass inside a black hole. The book also dispels some myths appearing in the theory of relativity and in contemporary cosmology. For example, although the hidden assumption that Einstein's equations provide a good description of the evolution of the whole universe is considered to be obvious, it is just a null hypothesis which has not been verified by any experiment, and has only been postulated by excessive extrapolations of many orders of magnitude.

The hum of the starship's engines echoed through the vastness of space as Captain Elysia Nova stood on the observation deck, her eyes fixed on the kaleidoscope of distant galaxies. Beyond the transparent alloy windows, a tapestry of twinkling lights unfolded, painting the cosmic canvas with luminescent hues. This was the Ozymandias, the pinnacle of human engineering, navigating the cosmic ocean.

In the vast expanse of the cosmos, humanity has embarked on an extraordinary journey—a quest to unravel the mysteries that lie beyond the stars, to understand the fabric of the universe, and to glimpse the secrets that have shaped our existence. This journey, driven by unquenchable curiosity and a relentless thirst for knowledge, has led us to explore the fundamental building blocks of reality, from the moment of the Big Bang to the enigmatic depths of black holes and the cosmic dance of dark matter and dark energy. In this book, "Secrets of the Cosmos: Origins, Structure, and Future of the Universe," we embark on an exploration that transcends the boundaries of time and space. We delve into the heart of the universe, where the echoes of the Big Bang reverberate through the cosmic tapestry, and where the gravitational embrace of black holes defies the conventional rules of physics. We traverse the intricate web of spacetime, where the fabric of reality bends and warps in the presence of massive celestial bodies, revealing the elegant dance of gravitational forces. Through each chapter, we encounter the brilliant minds who have illuminated our path—visionaries like Galileo Galilei, Albert Einstein, Edwin Hubble, and Stephen Hawking—who have reshaped our understanding of the cosmos and left an indelible mark on the annals of scientific inquiry. From the philosophical underpinnings of the universe's meaning to the harmonious interplay between science and spirituality, we contemplate the cosmic narrative that unfolds before us. As we navigate the pages of this book, we invite you to embark on a journey of discovery—a journey that traverses epochs of time, that spans the infinite depths of space, and that sparks a sense of wonder in the face of the unknown. From the fiery birth of stars to the icy expanse of the universe's future, we unravel the threads that weave the cosmic fabric, bringing to light the awe-inspiring symphony of existence. Whether you are a seasoned explorer of the cosmos or embarking on this journey for the first time, we welcome you to join us in this exploration of the universe's mysteries.

Driving human reason too far in the analysis of deep problems often leads to irresolvable inconsistencies and contradictions. In this 2002 J.F. Lewis Award-winning monograph, Gunther Stent traces the origins and development of the paradoxes of free will in this well-crafted introduction to philosophical debates regarding freedom of will. Free will poses one of the oldest and most vexatious philosophical problems, dating back to the beginnings of moral philosophy in ancient Greece. Pure theoretical reason implies that our actions are determined, while practical theoretical reason tells us that our will is free. Stent examines the arguments of moral responsibility versus determinism, from Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle to Immanuel Kant, Niels Bohr, and Max Planck.
