Course Overview
The Big Bang and the Origin of Chemical Elements online course by edX will begin with the nuclear structure of atoms and the creation of hydrogen in the universe during Big Bang. It will then cover the fusion of hydrogen in stars to form heavier elements. It will also elaborate on the three pillars of the Big Bang cosmology.
With the Big Bang and the Origin of Chemical Elements programme, you will learn how the alpha particle was identified as a possible building block for elements like carbon and oxygen. The discovery of the proton and its role as the ultimate building block for all nuclei is also covered.
The works of notable physicists and astronomers like Hubble, Penzias, Wilson, Leavitt, and Slipher, are discussed in the Big Bang and the Origin of Chemical Elements certification course. The 1978 Nobel lectures by Penzias and Wilson are the source material for some chapters.
