- The Cosmological Constant - The following pages present a discussion of the role the cosmological constant plays in modern cosmology. They are designed to offer an overview of how the cosmological constant alters standard cosmology, and to discuss whether a non-zero cosmological constant exists today.
- University of Cape Town Cosmology and Gravity Group - Relativity group in Cape Town, South Africa. The main focus is cosmology, including observational cosmology and cosmological applications of string theory. Includes staff list, description of activities and information about seminars.
- An Introduction to Quantum Cosmology - This is an introductory set of lecture notes on quantum cosmology, given to an audience with interests ranging from astronomy to particle physics.
- 1st SPOT Cosmology - References to cosmological sites featuring in-depth coverage of issues like dark matter, black holes and symmetric theory.
- Crisis in cosmology - The conference will consider the present state of understanding of the universe in the light of the increasing number of observations that challenge the conventional cosmological model.
- Quantum Cosmology and Eternal Inflation - A lecture from "The Future of Theoretical Physics and Cosmology" series in honor of Stephen Hawking.
- Cosmology: Methodological Debates 1932-48 - Discusses philosophical views about cosmology in the 1930s and 1940s; from the Stanford Encyclopedia, by George Gale.
- A Review of Inflationary Cosmology - The aim of this lecture is to highlight two areas of recent progress in inflationary cosmology, namely reheating and the quantum theory of cosmological perturbations.
- An Introduction to Quantum Cosmology - This is an introductory set of lecture notes on quantum cosmology, given in 1995 to an audience with interests ranging from astronomy to particle physics

- Raëlian cosmology - Raëlian cosmology is a cosmology proposed in 1973 by Raël, the founder of the International Raelian Movement (IRM), a growing religious organization. This cosmology is similar to the Jain cosmology in that it proposes that the observable universe has no creator and is infinite in time and finite in size and ...
- Islamic cosmology - Islamic cosmology is mainly derived from the Qur'an as well as other pre-Islamic sources. The Qur'an itself like the Bible lacks in detail on cosmology however there are many suras that mention much about cosmology prior to the earth's creation.
- Non-standard cosmology - A non-standard cosmology is any physical cosmological model of the universe that has been, or still is, proposed as an alternative to the big bang model of (standard) physical cosmology. In the history of cosmology, various scientists and researchers have disputed parts or all of the big bang due to a rejection or addition of fundamental assumptions needed to develop a theoretical model of the universe.
- String cosmology - String cosmology is a relatively new field that tries to apply equations of string theory to solve the questions of early cosmology. A related area of study is Brane cosmology .
- Self-creation cosmology - Self-creation cosmology (SCC) theories are gravitational theories in which the mass of the universe is created out of its self-contained gravitational and scalar fields, as opposed to the theory of continuous creation cosmology or the steady state theory which depend on an extra 'creation' field.
