DESY Heinrich Hertz Lecture on Physics 2024DESY Hertz Lecture on Physics: Consensus and confusion in cosmology
Prof. Dr. Marc Kamionkowski (Johns Hopkins University)
The past quarter century has been a period of rapid progress in our understanding of the origin and evolution of the Universe. We now have a simple mathematical model that can account for the gross features of our Universe as well as detailed information from precise measurements and observations. The model requires, though, several ingredients, such as dark matter and dark energy, that are not to be found within our current understanding of the fundamental laws of physics. There has also emerged, in the past few years, some inconsistencies between various measurements. In this talk, I will describe the triumphs of our current cosmological model, as well as its shortcomings.
