Dark Matter Opportunities with Weak Lensing
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore dark matter opportunities through weak lensing in this conference talk by Alex Amon from Cambridge. Recorded at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics as part of the "Cosmic Signals of Dark Matter Physics: New Synergies" conference, delve into the latest developments in theory, cosmological simulations, and observational capabilities in the era of large surveys. Discover how weak lensing techniques can be used to probe the nature of dark matter and contribute to our understanding of physics beyond the Standard Model. Learn about the astrophysical and cosmological constraints on dark matter, and gain insights into the ongoing efforts to extract dark matter physics from cosmic observables. Understand the importance of synergies between particle and cosmology theorists, simulators, and astronomers in constraining the elusive nature of dark matter.
