论文摘要
这篇文章是针对更广泛的受众的非技术底漆，在其中，我描绘了现代宇宙学的广泛刷牙图片。我首先回顾了大爆炸的证据，包括我们宇宙的扩展，宇宙微波背景以及光元素的原始丰度。接下来，我讨论如何通过宇宙学的一致性模型来很好地解释这些和其他宇宙学观察，从而特别强调了宇宙能量预算的组成，以可见的物质，暗物质和暗能量的形式。这为宇宙历史的简短概述从其存在的最早时刻一直到后期及以后的加速扩张。最后，我总结了该领域的当前状态，包括当前面临的挑战，例如哈勃紧张局势，并以对光明未来的前景结论，在未来几年和几十年中等待我们。文本的补充是一本广泛的书目，为希望深入研究的读者提供指南。
This essay is a nontechnical primer for a broader audience, in which I paint a broad-brush picture of modern cosmology. I begin by reviewing the evidence for the big bang, including the expansion of our Universe, the cosmic microwave background, and the primordial abundances of the light elements. Next, I discuss how these and other cosmological observations can be well explained by means of the concordance model of cosmology, putting a particular emphasis on the composition of the cosmic energy budget in terms of visible matter, dark matter, and dark energy. This sets the stage for a short overview of the history of the Universe from the earliest moments of its existence all the way to the accelerated expansion at late times and beyond. Finally, I summarize the current status of the field, including the challenges it is currently facing such as the Hubble tension, and conclude with an outlook onto the bright future that awaits us in the coming years and decades. The text is complemented by an extensive bibliography serving as a guide for readers who wish to delve deeper.
