The fundamental physics governing the formation of cosmic structure

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project will investigate the physics that underlie three of the most fundamental processes within the universe - its accelerated expansion, the formation of cosmic structure, and galaxy formation - thereby contributing to the Priority Goal of Breakthrough Science under National Research Priority 3. It will involve world-leading research in these areas, enabled by innovative instrumentation on Australia's national telescope facilities. National benefit will also come via the collaborations it will involve with prestigious North American institutions. These collaborations will lead to new research capability being built within Australia, through knowledge and expertise being vested in young postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers.
