Overview
Explore the fascinating intersection of particle physics and cosmology in this illuminating lecture by Yvonne Wong from the University of New South Wales. Delve into how the study of elementary particles on subatomic scales connects with the structure and dynamics of the universe on the largest scales. Discover how these seemingly disparate branches of physics converge in the hot, dense environment of the early universe. Gain insights into how observations of the cosmos can be used to probe fundamental physics, bridging the gap between the infinitesimally small and the incomprehensibly vast. Learn from an expert with extensive experience at renowned institutions such as DESY, Max Planck Institute for Physics, and CERN as she unravels the intricate relationship between the building blocks of nature and the phenomena observed across the observable universe.
