    Cosmology has advanced from "2.5 facts" in 1963 to a very data-rich field today. This has led to the determination of the baryon density, the dark matter density, and the dark energy density. But more facts lead to a greater reliance on advanced statistical techniques, which are usually useful but occasionally misleading. It is important to consider "look elsewhere effects", and to remember...

    Dark matter and structure in the Universe
    Talk

    In its most basic form, the highly successful $\Lambda$CDM cosmology can be encapsulated in six parameters. Once these parameters are specified, so too is a wide variety of phenomena, from fluctuations in the microwave background to the growth of structure to the evolution of the expansion rate of the Universe. I will review the predictions related to cosmological structure formation, focusing...
