Оглавление английского издания "Осциллирующей космологии"

Для тех, кто заинтересовался изданием книги в Elsevier (https://shop.elsevier.com/books/the-oscillating-universe/gorkavyi/978-0-443-27654-5), привожу оглавление — для общего ознакомления с содержанием — я его потом вставлю в верхний пост про эту космологическую книгу. Для тех, кто имеет русское издание: обратите внимание на Часть III "Неизвестная теория Эйнштейна", которая раньше была Приложением I. Приложение II исчезло — каждае его часть была перенесена в соответствующую главу основного текста. Не помню, успел ли я вставить в русское переиздание цитату из нобелевского лауреата Адама Рисса, но в английское я его вставил:
I’ve always preferred if it was a cyclical universe.
Adam Riess, The Washington Post, 11/11/2024.

The Oscillating Universe
Einsteinian Cosmology of Black Holes and Gravitational Waves
Nick Gorkavyi
Abstract: The latest cosmological revolution began in 2015 with the discovery of gravitational waves from the merger of numerous invisible black holes of stellar mass, supporting the idea that they could be the dark matter of the cosmos. This discovery led to the development of the oscillating universe model, in which gravitational radiation and black holes play a pivotal role. This book introduces the concept of cyclic cosmology, explaining the physical mechanism behind the Big Bang and the contemporary acceleration of the universe's expansion (the phenomenon of positive cosmological constant or "dark energy"). This book is of interest to specialists, physics students, and astronomy enthusiasts.
