    Cosmology Study
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the hypothetical scenario of being restricted to a single area of study within cosmology. Participants express a desire to explore various topics, with specific mentions of the Hubble Parameter Problem and the general relativity aspects of cosmology, including topology and homogeneity. There is a humorous undertone regarding the challenge of such a limitation, with references to the "Kobayashi Maru," a scenario from the Star Trek universe symbolizing a no-win situation. The overall sentiment reflects a preference for broad exploration in the field rather than confinement to one topic.

Summary: What would you study

If for some reason you were required to limit your area of study in cosmology to one topic, what would it be?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
It would be how to get around that limitation :oldlaugh:

Hubble Parameter Problem or GR part of the cosmology (topology, homogeneity, etc.)

TL;DR Summary: What topics to cover to safely say I know arithmetic ? I am learning arithmetic from Indian NCERT textbook. Currently I have finished addition ,substraction of 2 digit numbers and divisions, multiplication of 1 digit numbers. I am moving pretty slowly. Can someone tell me what topics to cover first to build a framework and then go on in detail. I want to learn fast. It has taken me a year now learning arithmetic. I want to speed up. Thanks for the help in advance. (I also...
Hi community My aim is to get into research about atoms, specifically, I want to do experimental research that explores questions like: 1. Why do Gallium/Mercury have low melting points 2. Why are there so many exceptions and inconsistencies when it comes to explaining molecular structures / reaction mechanisms in inorganic and organic chemistry 3. Experimental research about fundamental Quantum Mechanics, such as the one being followed by Hiroshima university that proved that observing...
guys i am currently studying in computer science engineering [1st yr]. i was intrested in physics when i was in high school. due to some circumstances i chose computer science engineering degree. so i want to incoporate computer science engineering with physics and i came across computational physics. i am intrested studying it but i dont know where to start. can you guys reccomend me some yt channels or some free courses or some other way to learn the computational physics.
