Institute of Cosmology - University of Portsmouth


Workshop Pictures

The Institute of Cosmology and Gravitation (ICG) at the University of Portsmouth will host a one day workshop on higher order statistics in cosmology. The meeting will focus on the application of higher order statistics, this includes use of n-point correlation functions in quantifying the galaxy distribution, searches for non-gaussianity in the CMB and constraining the higher order terms present in gravitational lensing. We will also cover the theoretical sources of such higher-order correlations and statistics. This will be the 3rd annual workshop on observational cosmology held at the ICG. Previous workshops: 2006 Redshift Surveys of the Future & 2005 Dark Energy

Dear All,

Many thanks for coming to Portsmouth and making our workshop so enjoyable. Could all the speakers please send me a copy of their talks so I can put them on the webpage. The talks we have so far are on www.sdss2005.info/higher/agenda.html

Also I have added a picture page, so if you have any good snap send them to me.
