Presidential Young Investigator (PYI) Award: Theoretical Topics in Cosmology

总统青年研究员奖将支持 高能粒子边界的理论研究 物理学和宇宙学 一个关于 构成星系晕中“缺失的质量”的物质可能来自 粒子物理学的基本理论 这些理论 还可以预测偏差的规模和幅度 来自宇宙微波背景辐射的均匀性。 这位杰出的年轻理论家将把她的注意力放在 这些问题，希望有助于解决。

This Presidential Young Investigator award will support theoretical research at the boundary of high-energy particle physics and cosmology. A solution to the puzzle of what constitutes the "missing mass" in galactic halos may come from the fundamental theories of particle physics. These theories also make predictions as to the scale and amplitude of deviations from uniformity in the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation. This outstanding young theoretician will give her attention to these problems, in hope of contributing to their solution.
