Matter that shows when numbers do not work out and other unknowns

In a detailed computer simulation complex filaments of dark matter, shown in black, are strewn about the universe like spider webs, while the relatively rare clumps of familiar baryonic matter are coloured orange. Credits: KIPAC, SLAC, AMNH

Cosmology with Large Scale Structure Probes

The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) contains the statistical information about the early seeds of the structure formation in our Universe. Its natural counterpart in the local universe is the distribution of galaxies that arises as a result of gravitational growth of those primordial and small density fluctuations. The characterization of the

Astroparticle Theory

Our group works on theoretical astroparticle physics and our goal is to expand our understanding of the fundamental laws of Nature by exploiting the synergies between astrophysical observations and laboratory experiments. Different lines we are currently working on are: Indirect searches of dark matter: New light exotic particles coupled very
