Presented By: Department of Physics
Physics Graduate Summer Symposium | Cosmology using galaxy surveys
Otávio Alves (UM Physics)
The observed spacial distribution and shapes of galaxies encode a wealth of information about the evolution of our Universe and the fundamental physics governing it. In this talk, I will review a few ways in which data from galaxy surveys can be used to probe fundamental physics such as deviations from general relativity, the mass of neutrinos, and the nature of the dark sector. Methods I will review include weak gravitational lensing and galaxy clustering.
