Workshop on Structure Formation and Dark Matter Halos

Fermilab, 10-12 May 2001

The meeting will focus on how recently or soon-to-be released data sets can best be used to constrain models of hierarchical clustering.

Galaxy surveys: Observations and models
  • clustering as a function of colour, morphological type
  • evolution of clustering as a function of colour, type
  • redshift space distortions
  • halo models
  • Cluster surveys
  • optical, X-ray, Sunyaev-Zeldovich
  • Gravitational lensing surveys
  • strong, weak, galaxy-galaxy, quasar-galaxy
  • shear and magnification bias
  • (In)direct dark matter searches

    Problems
  • cuspy cores and halo substructure

  • Local organizing committee: Scott Dodelson, Josh Frieman, Wayne Hu, Roman Scoccimarro, & Ravi Sheth


    Schedule of talks

    All talks will be in the room called Curia II in the building called Wilson Hall, which is the high-rise structure on the Fermilab site.

    The schedule of talks is available here. A list of people who have registered is available here.

    There is no registration fee, and there will be no proceedings published.


    General information and accomodation

    General information about Fermilab, travel between Chicago's O'Hare airport and Fermilab, and hotels in the area is available here. Rooms at Red Roof Inn or at Extended Stay America should get a discounted rate if you mention Fermilab when making your reservation.

    A hotel map is available here. We will not be organizing any special transportation between Fermilab and the hotels.
