Though on exercises for the Cosmology Block course:
Day 1: Newtonian cosmology:
Exercise: things to do with the collapsing top hat:
-- explain that (in three days) we'll see that overdose parts of the Universe
can be treated as Newtonian Universes
-- the collapsing sphere:
-- toy-problem
-- "virializing"
-- properties
-- application to the Milky Way:
we take v_circ --> v_virial --> mass, size, etc..
Day 2: Friedman-Robertson Walker Universe
-- code up, and plot, the angular diameter distances; luminosity distances
as a function of cosmological parameters;
-- what are the uncertainties implied by current cosmol. parameter uncertainties
(which we prod ad hoc at this point)
-- application: what's size of a galaxy at z=0.5,2,7
[TOO Early; move all of this to day 3?]
Day 3: Linear growth of structure etc...
-- code up the solution of contrast growth for non-trivial (i.e. realistic) cosmological parameters
-- compare the (linear) growth of structure between toy-cases of cosmological parameters
-- do top-hat now in a cosmological context
-- or code up and plot Press-Schechter
