Welcome to the cosmolab!
Our lab is located on the beautiful campus of the University of Arizona in Tucson, at the outskirts of the amazing Sonoran Desert. We are a group of faculty, postdocs, graduate and undergraduate students researchers across the departments of Astronomy and Physics.
We are interested in exploring the Universe's formation and evolution through a mix of statistical analysis of large cosmological datasets, numerical simulations, analytical calculations, and machine learning.
At the center of our research are fundamental physics questions such as the nature of dark energy and dark matter, and details about the formation of large-scale structures in the Universe. We build physical models for cosmological observables and implementing them into code. These models are then compared to datasets from different experiments, such as the Dark Energy Survey, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time, the NASA SPHEREx explorer, and the Roman Space Telescope.
Welcome again, and have fun exploring our website!
