Title | Barrow, John David: certificate of election to the Royal Society |
Citation | John Barrow is distinguished for research in Cosmology, Gravitation, and the Large-scale Structure of the Universe. His work has furthered our understanding of the Universe's deviations from perfect homogeneity and isotropy. He devised new ways to evaluate the amplitudes and patterns of possible cosmological anisotropies and inhomogeneities, and identified the conditions for cosmological chaos to occur. He has investigated many applications of particle physics to the early Universe, especially the study of nucleosynthesis, the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe, and 'inflation'. He is also an effective populariser of science through his many books, newspaper articles, lectures, and radio broadcasts. |
