This book provides a comprehensive and instructive coverage of particle physics in the early universe, in a logical way. It starts from the thermal history of the universe by investigating some of the main arguments such as Big Bang nucleosynthesis, the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and the inflation, before treating in details the direct and indirect detection of dark matter and then some aspects of the physics of neutrino. Following, it describes possible candidates for dark matter and its interactions.
The book is targeted at theoretical physicists who deal with particle physics in the universe, dark matter detection and astrophysical constraints, and at particle physicists who are interested in models of inflation or reheating. This book offers also material for astrophysicists who work with quantum field theory computations.
All that is useful to compute any physical process is included: mathematical tables, all the needed functions for the thermodynamics of early universe and Feynman rules. In light of this, this book acts as a crossroad between astrophysics, particle physics and cosmology.

Yann Mambrini is Research Director at the French CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) in the Irene Joliot Curie Laboratory, at University Paris-Saclay. His research interests concern the field of particle physics and fundamental interactions. He works actively on extensions of the Standard Model, from Supergravity to Grand Unified Theories, and more specifically on their cosmological consequences, especially involving dark matter aspects. He was awarded with the Prix d'Excellence Scientifique of the National Research Council in 2010, 2014 and 2018. Currently, he is lecturing at Ecole Normal Supérieure. One of his passion is the concept of time, from its measurement to its nature, and the history of ideas in physics. He wrote several popular books on the subject: Histoires de Temps and Le Siècle des révolutions Scientifiques, Ed. Ellipses and Newton à la Plage, Ed. Dunod. He shares this passion with magic, with which he presents shows for the general public mixing illusions, time and mysteries of the universe.

About the Author Yann Mambrini serves as a Research Director at the French CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) in the Irene Joliot Curie Laboratory at the University of Paris-Saclay. His research primarily centers on particle physics and fundamental interactions, spanning from supergravity to grand unified theories. He focusses on cosmological implications, especially within the study of dark matter. Recognized for his contributions, Mambrini received the Prix d'Excellence Scientifique from the National Research Council in 2010, 2014, and 2018. Currently, he lectures at the Ecole Normale Supérieure. Apart from his academic pursuits, he is deeply intrigued by the concept of time, ranging from its measurement to its fundamental nature, and the historical evolution of ideas in physics. He has authored several well-received French books on these subjects: Histoires de Temps (Ellipses, 2019), Le Siècle des révolutions Scientifiques (Ellipses, 2020), Newton à la Plage (Dunod, 2021; also translated into Italian in 2022 as Una Giornata con Newton by Espress), and La Nouvelle Physique (Albin Michel, 2024). Alongside his scholarly endeavors, Mambrini shares his passion for magic, weaving illusions into discussions about time and the mysteries of the universe in shows tailored for the general public.
