It will take me a bit. An initial brief look indicates that it looks good, although there are a few uncited statements that may need cleaning. More to come. Ldm1954 (talk) 07:07, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for taking this up. Sgubaldo (talk) 09:25, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- Initial comments:
- Please include the title of his PhD thesis. Ideal would be a link to a pdf as well, but this may not exist.
- If you mention Hawking radiation, you have to say something about whether it is real, as I believe this is still being debated. There is a lot more material on this, including on the page on it. You need to carefully say something.
- Overall it is well constructed and well sourced.
- But, it is not obvious to me whether everything in Alexei Starobinsky#Research is accurate enough, and I have to wonder about neutrality of the interpretation. I said wonder because I do not know enough about the area. I think it is appropriate that I ask for a second/expert opinion at WP:Physics. Ldm1954 (talk) 08:38, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- Important. please go to MediaWiki, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?search=cosmic+inflation&title=Special:MediaSearch&go=Go&type=image. There are images which would probably be useful to illustrate. Ldm1954 (talk) 08:46, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- PhD Thesis - I've included the title of his PhD thesis (Quantum effects and wave amplification in strong gravitational fields) in the infobox and education section. I tried to find a link to it online, but I can't find it anywhere, not even on lists of his publications.
- Hawking Radiation – I've added a note specifically stating that this is theoretical and hasn't been observed.
- Research Section – Sure, I'm not an expert in the area either, so I'm happy to wait for someone else from WP:Physics to take a look.
- Image – I've included the classic timeline of the universe image, with a short caption on when the inflationary epoch took place.
