An Introduction into the Theory of Cosmological Structure Formation
by Christian Knobel
Publisher: arXiv 2012
Number of pages: 102
Description:
This text aims to give a pedagogical introduction into the main concepts of the theory of structure formation in the universe. The text is suited for graduate students of astronomy with a moderate background in general relativity. A special focus is laid on deriving the results formally from first principles.

Cosmology for Particle Physicists
by U. A. Yajnik - arXiv
We begin with a recapitulation of General Relativity, and the Standard Model of Cosmology. This is followed by lectures on inflation, density perturbations, study of hot and cold relics decoupled from the remaining constituents, and baryon asymmetry.

The Cosmological Constant
by Sean M. Carroll - arXiv
This is a review of the physics and cosmology of the cosmological constant. The author presents an overview of cosmology in the presence of a cosmological constant, observational constraints on its magnitude, and the physics of a small vacuum energy.
