Dear Colleagues,
Hereby, we would like to invite you to take part in the upcoming 2nd Ukraine Seminar in Fundamental Physics, which is organized by the National Research Foundation of Ukraine and which will be held next Thursday, April 27, at 4pm CEST (3pm BST, 5pm EEST, 10am EDT, midnight AEST).
Our speaker is Prof. Tamara Davis from the University of Queensland (Brisbane, Australia).
Title of the talk: Cosmology as a probe of fundamental physics
Abstract: The last few decades have been a golden age for observational astrophysics and cosmology, with the power of modern telescopes revealing surprising features of our Universe in ever more detail. From explaining the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy, to measuring the mass of the neutrino and understanding nuclear physics through gravitational waves, modern astrophysics is now a key tool in studying fundamental physics. In this talk Tamara Davis will summarize the main methods by which astrophysicists are pushing the boundaries of known physics, and discuss the cracks (“tensions”) that are emerging between different cosmological probes.
The Seminar will take place online via the following Zoom-link:
