astro-particle subgroup seminar
| Date: | September 25, 2008, 13:30 - 15:00 |
| Place: | Seminar Room at IPMU Prefab. B, Kashiwa Campus of the University of Tokyo |
| Speaker: | Simon Dedeo (Chicago) |
| Title: | The View from UChicago |
| Abstract: | Without slides and in the form of a highly opinionated survey, I present some of the "radical" questions being asked in cosmology today: is there really evidence for dark energy as a new field ("minimally modified gravity") and is it "really real" at all (backreaction). |
