Physics

Scientific paper

The discovery of cosmic acceleration has generated tremendousexcitement among researchers in fundamental physics and cosmology. Mostexperts agree that nothing short of a revolution will be required to fullyintegrate the observed cosmic acceleration (which many attribute to amysterious "dark energy") with established physics. Currently this discoveryis driving very exciting research in both the theoretical and observationaldomain. I will present two of these topics that particularly interest me:

1. Dark Energy and Cosmic Equilibrium: How a cosmological constant couldmake the universe look like a box of gas (and what this could mean forcosmology).
2. Probes of Dark Energy: A host of new probes promise to tell us more aboutdark energy, but what do we really want to know?
