Carlberg's research work covers cosmology, galaxies and telescopes. A full decade ago Carlberg was one of the leaders in proposing the "three tiered" design of the CFHT Legacy Survey, with his own interests focussed on the deep component with supernova cosmology as the primary scientific driver. The measurement of the dark energy parameter based on the preliminary analysis of the first year data produced the most highly cited CFHT paper ever. Much richer analyses are continuing based on the full five years of data and we have now substantially achieved the goal of a 5% statistical accuracy measurement of w.

卡尔伯格的研究工作涉及宇宙学、星系和望远镜。整整十年前，卡尔伯格是CFHT遗产调查“三层”设计的领导者之一，他自己的兴趣集中在超新星宇宙学作为主要科学驱动力的深层成分上。基于对第一年数据的初步分析的暗能量参数的测量产生了有史以来被引用最多的CFHT论文。基于整整五年的数据，我们正在继续进行更丰富的分析，现在我们已经基本实现了对w的5%统计准确度测量的目标。
