[Astro] NCoG Colloquium - Cora Dvorkin - Wednesday at 2pm

[Thomas Sotiriou]

Dear all,

This is reminder that this week's NCoG Colloquium, Wednesday, January 22nd, at 2pm, delivered by Cora Dvorkin (Harvard).

Title: The Universe as a Lab for Fundamental Physics

Abstract:
The remarkable progress in cosmology over the last decades has been driven by the close interplay between theory and observations. Cosmological observations and galaxy dynamics have shown us that 84% of all matter in the universe is composed of dark matter, which is not accounted for by the Standard Model of particle physics. The properties and interactions of dark matter remain one of the great puzzles of fundamental physics.
In this talk, I will discuss new ways to use current and upcoming astrophysical observations to improve our understanding of the nature of dark matter.

Cora will be joining us online. Here is a zoom link for joining:
