DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Marco Drewes\n\nThe next decade will bring unprecede
 nted amounts of data improving our understanding of the very early univers
 e\, including Cosmic Microwave Background observations as well as optical 
 and radio surveys. These will\, for the first time\, shed light on the tra
 nsition from cosmic inflation to a radiation-dominated hot big bang\, know
 n as cosmic reheating\, closing a critical missing link in physical cosmol
 ogy. Two complementary observational avenues can make this possible: The i
 mproved determination of the distribution of matter in the universe and a 
 potential discovery of primordial gravitational waves. We illustrate for s
 elected models of inflation how much can be learnt about the reheating tem
 perature and the underlying particle physics theories.\n\nhttps://indico.g
