List of Cosmologists - T

T

• Max Tegmark (1967–) determined the parameters of the lambda-cold dark matter model using Sloan Survey data, studied mathematical models of multiverses
• William G. Tifft theorized that galactic redshifts are quantized
• Beatrice Tinsley (1941–1981) researched galactic evolution, the creation of lightweight elements, and accelerated expansion of the universe
• Frank J. Tipler (1947–) proved that time travel requires singularities, promoted the anthropic principle
• Richard Chase Tolman (1881–1948) showed that the cosmic background keeps a black-body profile as the universe expands
• Trinh Xuan Thuan (1948–) researched galaxy formation and evolution
• Mark Trodden (1968–) studied cosmological implications of topological defects in field theories
• Michael S. Turner coined the term dark energy
• Neil Turok (1958–) predicted correlations between polarization and temperature anisotropy in the cosmic background, explained the big bang as a brane collision
• Henry Tye (1947–) proposed brane-antibrane interactions as a cause of inflation
