Baryonic effects on cosmological large scale structure

Event Start:

Event Information:

Upcoming measurements of large-scale clustering in the universe promise to provide new insights into cosmology and fundamental physics, but a variety of modelling and analysis challenges must be addressed if this promise is to be fully realized. In this talk, I will discuss one such challenge: the modelling uncertainty associated with so-called "baryonic effects," specifically the influence of gas dynamics and feedback from active galactic nuclei on the large-scale distribution of matter.
