Scientific Calendar Event



Description The purpose of the School on Cosmology is to provide an introduction to the current state of research in cosmology and astroparticle physics. It is intended for beginning graduate students, as well as more senior non-expert researchers that are interested in these fields.

During the School, the Dirac Medal ceremony will also take place and the award will be shared amongst Thomas W.B. KIBBLE, Phillip James E. PEEBLES and Martin John REES

TOPICS:
INTRODUCTION TO COSMOLOGY
MODIFIED GRAVITY
INFLATION
LARGE SCALE STRUCTURE: COMPARISON OF THEORY WITH OBSERVATION
COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND RADIATION
LARGE SCALE STRUCTURE
DARK MATTER
IGM/BARYONS

LECTURERS:
A. Challinor (Cambridge)
A. Ibarra (TU Munich)
J. Khoury (UPenn.)
J. Miralda-Escude' (ICREA/U. Barcelona)
T. Padmanabhan (IUCAA, Pune)
C. Porciani (AlfA, Bonn)
B. Reid (LBNL, Berkeley)
