Galaxy Formation and Evolution

Talk

The LCDM model has the virtue of having strong predictive power in so far as the properties of the dark matter are concerned. For example, the mass function of dark matter halos is known to high precision, from the mass scale of the Earth to that of rich clusters. The predictive power is weakened when baryons are considered because of the complex astrophysical processes to which they can give...

78. An Overview of DESI Cosmology

Prof. Cheng Zhao (Tsinghua University)

11/17/25, 9:30 AM

Cosmology and Large-scale Structure

Talk

The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has constructed the largest 3D map of galaxies and quasars to date, spanning the nearby Universe to a redshift of over 3. Recently, DESI has released cosmological measurements from its third-year (Y3) data, revealing evidences of dynamic dark energy. In this talk, I will review DESI results and discuss future developments.
