Chapter 1. The New Universe

            Figure 1. Great telescopes on and orbiting Earth. Image: Nina McCurdy.
            Figure 2. A pillar of star birth: the Carina Nebula in visible light. This image shows the tip of the three-light-year-long pillar bathed in the glow of light from hot, massive stars off the top of the image. Scorching radiation and fast winds (streams of charged particles) from these stars are sculpting the pillar and causing new stars to form within it. Streamers of gas and dust can be seen flowing off the top of the structure. Dust hides much of the nebula. This photo was taken by Wide Field Camera 3 on the Hubble Space Telescope. Image and description: NASA, ESA, and the Hubble SM4 ERO Team.[Source: http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/releases/2009/25/image/h/ ]
            Figure 3. A pillar of star birth: the Carina Nebula in infrared light. In this photo, also taken by the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3), infrared light penetrates the dust, making it possible to see far more stars. The WFC3, installed by astronauts during the final Hubble Space Telescope service mission in May 2009, tremendously increased the telescope’s infrared capability.

Chapter 2. Size Is Destiny

Figure 21. Sizes are doorways within doorways. Image: Nicolle Rager Fuller.
Figure 22. The Cosmic Uroboros. The uroboros ranges from the smallest size, the Planck size (10–33 cm) at the tip of the tail, to the size of the entire visible universe (1029 cm) at the head of the serpent. In modern physics, forces result from the exchange of particles. The photon, the particle of light, is responsible for electrical and magnetic forces. Analogous particles called gluons carry the strong force, which holds protons, neutrons, and the entire nucleus together. The weak interactions, which are responsible for certain kinds of radioactive decays, are due to the exchange of massive W and Z particles. In a Grand Unified Theory (GUT), all these forces come together and have the same strength on very small scales, represented by “GUT” on the serpent’s tail. Image: Nicolle Rager Fuller.

            Figure 31. Dark matter ships on an ocean of dark energy. Image: Garth von Ahnen.
            Figure 32. Big Bang data agree with the Double Dark theory. The blue curve is the prediction of the Double Dark theory, which agrees spectacularly well with the white points, the 2010 data from NASA’s Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe satellite. What is graphed is the amount of structure on different angular scales in the temperature of the cosmic background radiation, pictured on the sphere. Large angular scales are on the left, and smaller ones are on the right. The graph is from N. Jarosik et al., “Seven-Year Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP7) Observations: Sky Maps, Systematic Errors, and Basic Results, Astrophysical Journal Supplement (in press). [Source: http://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/product/map/pub_papers/sevenyear/cosmology/images/large/ek7_f07_PPT_L.png ]Ground-based data are from the ACBAR and QUaD experiments at the South Pole, pictured in the figure. The Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite provided data on the largest angular scales, and COBE data announced in 1992 gave an early confirmation of a key Cold Dark Matter theory prediction.
            Figure 33. The distribution of matter also agrees with the Double Dark theory. The same theory that correctly predicts the properties of the cosmic background radiation (the blue curve in fig. 32) also correctly predicts the amount of structure on different length scales in the universe today (red curve).

Chapter 4. Our Place in Time

            Figure 42. The Hubble Ultra Deep Field in optical light. This photo was taken by the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope. The Ultra Deep Field observations represent a narrow, deep view of the cosmos. Peering into the Ultra Deep Field is like looking through an eight-foot-long soda straw. In ground-based photographs, the patch of sky in which the galaxies reside (just one-tenth the diameter of the full moon) is so empty that only a handful of stars (with four-pointed spikes in the image) within the Milky Way galaxy can be seen.

Radii of dark matter halos are represented by the blue circles, and the size of their core regions is represented by the red dots. Many little halos at early times merge to form larger halos, which subsequently merge into one big halo. Image: Risa H. Wechsler, James S. Bullock, Joel R. Primack, Andrey V.
