Cosmological Parameters 2006 (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sánchez, A., & Baugh, C. (2007). Cosmological Parameters 2006. In N. Metcalfe, & T. Shanks (Eds.), Cosmic Frontiers: proceedings of a conference held at Department of Physics, Durham University, Durham, UK, 31 July-4 August 2006

Recent measurements of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB), particularly when combined with other datasets, have revolutionised our knowledge of the values of the basic cosmological parameters. Here we summarize the state of play at the e... Read More about Cosmological Parameters 2006.

This paper describes our experience making a short stereoscopic movie visualizing the development of structure in the universe during the 13.7 billion years from the Big Bang to the present day. Aimed at a general audience for the Royal Society's 200... Read More about Cosmic cookery: making a stereoscopic 3D animated movie.

Evidence for Galaxy Formation at High Redshift. (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Shanks, T., Metcalfe, N., Fong, D., McCracken, H., Campos, A., & Thompson, D. (2001). Evidence for Galaxy Formation at High Redshift. In M. Harwit, & M. G. Hauser (Eds.),

We present new evidence that simple evolutionary models where the star-formation rate in galaxies increases exponentially with redshift but the space density of galaxies remains constant with redshift, give very precise fits to the number count of Ly...
