The Formation of Galaxies in Friedmannian Universes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 February 2017
Abstract
A short review of the theory of the formation of galaxies and clusters of galaxies is given within the framework of the non-linear theory of gravitational instability. Probable initial conditions are discussed as well as processes which bring about the origin of galaxies and clusters of galaxies. Possible observational tests are discussed.
