Cosmic Signals of Dark Matter Physics: New Synergies
Coordinators: Kimberly Boddy, Vera Gluscevic, Ferah Munshi, Ethan Nadler, and Annika Peter
Observables spanning a wide range of cosmic epochs and length-scales independently testify to the existence of dark matter. Although little is known about the microphysical nature of dark matter, its mere existence points to physics beyond the Standard Model. New developments in theory, cosmological simulations, and observational capabilities in the era of large surveys have opened up a vast landscape for dark matter discovery, which includes models that can only be tested by astrophysical and cosmological probes.
This conference aims to:
- Overview the many different astrophysical and cosmological constraints on dark matter.
- Synthesize ongoing theoretical, computational, and observational efforts to extract dark matter physics from cosmic observables
- Identify new synergies between particle and cosmology theorists, simulators, and astronomers working toward constraining the elusive nature of dark matter.
PLEASE NOTE: During the conference there will be an opportunity to present a contributed talk. If you are interested, please submit your title and abstract. Deadline April 3, 2024 **please note deadline has already passed, no more abstracts will be reviewed**
We ask that the posters be no larger than 44 inches high x 34 inches wide at the most (it is important to follow these measurements or posters may be turned down due to limited space).
