    Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    The coming years promise a deluge of data concerning the properties and evolution of the universe. These data will include large galaxy surveys, providing 3D maps of the universe extending well past halfway to the horizon, and precise measurements of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background, providing both a search for gravitational waves from the early universe and a precise map of...

  3. 184. Shedding New Light on Sterile Neutrinos
    Dr Brian Shuve (Perimeter Institute & McMaster University)

    Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)
    Oral (Non-Student) / orale (non-étudiant)
    Theories with sterile neutrinos are well-motivated extensions to the Standard Model that can account for the observed dark matter abundance, the baryon asymmetry and neutrino masses. The recent astrophysical detection of a possible "smoking gun" signature of sterile neutrino dark matter decay gives further impetus to the study of sterile neutrino models. I give a comprehensive overview of the...

  4. 239. Neutrinos at the South Pole with the PINGU detector
    Ken Clark (University of Toronto)

    Particle Physics / Physique des particules (PPD)
    Oral (Non-Student) / orale (non-étudiant)
    IceCube and its low energy extension DeepCore have been deployed at the South Pole and taking data since early 2010. With a neutrino energy threshold of about 10 GeV, DeepCore allows IceCube to access a rich variety of physics including searching indirectly for WIMP dark matter and studying atmospheric neutrinos. A proposed new in-fill array, named PINGU, would continue to lower the...
