Our research spans a wide range of topics in cosmology, astrophysics, and particle/nuclear astrophysics. These include dark energy, dark matter, and galaxy formation; the high-energy astrophysics of cosmic rays, gamma rays, and neutrinos; and transient/multi-messenger astronomy.
Our efforts in theory are closely coupled to those in experiment and observation, which include galaxy surveys, cosmic-ray and neutrino telescopes, and supernova surveys.
