Cluster cosmology is potentially one of the most powerful observational probes of structure formation. However, enabling unbiased cosmological constraints requires careful modeling of the cluster selection function. In the case of optical cluster cosmology, this requires accurate modeling of projection effects. We will introduce a new simulation-based inference framework with which we reanalyze DES Y1 […]

Speaker: Julio Navarro Institution: University of Victoria Abstract: Lambda Cold Dark Matter (LCDM) is the most successful theory for the formation of structure in the Universe. Although its predictions have been verified on large scales, they are still contested on the scale of dwarf galaxies, whose dynamical properties are often cited as evidence for the […]

As part of the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, the workshop Entangle This VI will bring together experts at the forefront of quantum theory and experiment. It is organized by the Quantum groups at IFT and IFF. Read more >>

The JUNO reactor neutrino experiment has recently begun collecting data, marking the start of a new precision era in neutrino research. With its unparalleled precision, JUNO is poised to refine our understanding of most neutrino oscillation parameters. Its cornerstone measurement - the determination of the neutrino mass ordering -- holds the promise of a breakthrough. […]

Light Dark World 2025 (LDW'25) is the tenth meeting of the annual Light Dark World International Forum, which will take place between September 16 and September 19, 2025, at the Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) in Madrid (Spain). The workshop will gather international specialists from both experimental and theoretical backgrounds in order to examine recent […]
