L.Bleem:Cluster Cosmology with the SPT
Posted: Fri 11 Nov 2016 17:37VIA lecture by Prof. Lindsey Bleem ''Cluster Cosmology with the South Pole Telescope'' was given on 11.11.2016.
Her presentation is available at

and the record is in VIA library

The following questions were put and comments made in the discussion:
Ken Ganga: Are there any plans to work with, e.g., LSST, Euclid, WFIRST, etc.?
Shantanu: There is lot of work in cosmological community on variants of Vanilla CDM model such as Self-interacting DM and DM with large De Broglie wavelength (which go under different names such as psi DM or Wave DM etc). To test these models you need simulations and halo mass functions
Shantanu: is anyone working on this and testing them with SZ data?
Shantanu: There was recently a paper by Princeton group on wave DM and in this series David Marsh gave a talk on such a model
Shantanu: I think nature of DM is the most pressing question in cosmology.
