Dark Energy and Modified-Gravity cosmologies: DARKMOD from September 11, 2017 to October 6, 2017
The acceleration of the expansion of the Universe at low redshifts has not received a satisfactory theoretical explanation yet. The value of a possible cosmological constant remains a puzzle and alternative approaches, dark energy or modified gravity, are still being developed. In view of the future observations by galaxy surveys, such as EUCLID for instance, it is timely to gather experts on both the theoretical aspects of dark energy and modified gravity, together with phenomenologists and observers. This 4-week workshop will provide an opportunity to discuss most aspects of both dark energy and modified gravity, from their theoretical construction to their link with observational cosmology.
