Colloquium Oct 3rd: Matias Zaldarriaga

Matias Zaldarriaga: "Cosmology into the next decade"

In this talk, I will be reviewing the observations that have contributed to the development of the Standard Cosmological Model. I will argue that as we seek to address many of the remaining questions, the field of observational Cosmology is transitioning to a more complex phase, where we are attempting to gather information from the late Universe on smaller scales. Specifically, I will be focusing on the challenging task of modeling galaxy clustering, and presenting some of the recent results in this area. Finally, I will be discussing the prospects for future theoretical developments. Pre-Colloquium Reception at 3:00 pm in SCI 101
