Hořava-Lifshitz gravity is  perturbatively renormalizable quantum gravity model candidate with an anisotropic UV-scaling between space and time. I would like to present a cosmological background analysis of the minimal projectable formulations of the theory, with particular focus on the running of the parameter λ with energy.

The upcoming mega-telescopes, such as European Space Agency’s recently launched Euclid satellite, and the upcoming radio Square Kilometer Array (SKA), will provide images of our universe over 10 billion years of cosmic history, and enable us to study its evolution with unprecedented level of detail. In the framework of simulations-based inference, the big telescopes deliver a throve of high-resolution observations and big computers provide the feature-rich numerical theory prediction.

Venez assister à la retransmission du lancement en direct de la mission Euclid en compagnie des chercheurs et techniciens ayant contribué à la construction du satellite!
 

The new weak lensing measurements from the first three years of observation by the Dark Energy Survey offer a unique opportunity to constrain deviations from General Relativity, our theory of gravity. Weak gravitational lensing is indeed a powerful probe of the growth of structures. As such it offers a window on the laws of gravity on cosmological scales. We thus used DES Year 3 weak lensing data to test the validity of General Relativity (GR) to a new regime, and explore modifications to GR as an alternative to dark energy.
