Origin And Formation Of The Universe

Scientific paper

During the XXth century a scientific picture of the universe and its history has emerged on the basis of the ``Primeval Atom'', the original proposition of Georges Lemaî tre. Indeed, I will show during this review that modern cosmology is a scientific theory, and as such does not pretend to provide the ``Truth'', but a framework in which predictions are possible and can be confronted to observations for possible falsification in Poper sense. The last forty years have offered a remarkable list of observational verifications of the predictions of the standard picture, on the basis of well established physics. During the last twenty five years a more revolutionizing picture has emerged: essential pieces of information for fundamental physics are obtainable from cosmology: this picture specifies the existence of non-baryonic matter, of dark energy and the physics relevant at energies well above what is accessible to terrestrial laboratories. Although definitive conclusions are obviously more uncertain, this approach is still a fully scientific path which successes have been remarkable and allow to consider cosmology as a new and rich branch of modern physics.
