Progress in cosmology over the past few decades has been quantified by the extent to which we can accurately measure “two-point functions” such as the power spectrum of galaxies; the shear-shear- correlation function; galaxy-galaxy lensing; and most famously the C_l’s of the anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background. New statistics are emerging though that offer potential to infer even more information about the universe. The speaker will open by asking your opinions about what information is most important that is not listed above. Then, he will give his opinion and share some proposals for extending this relatively new class of statistics to learn about the large-scale structure of the universe.

“Copernicus Webinar and Colloquium Series”: To promote scientific discussions during this pandemic, they are organizing an online seminar series, i.e. Copernicus Webinar Series, seeking the most outstanding speakers to introduce innovative ideas and important progress in the field of gravity and cosmology. This series is named after the famous Polish Astronomer, Nicolaus Copernicus, whose discovery eventually marked the dawn of modern science.
此活動由歐洲核子研究組織CERN主辦。
