Hertz Lectures

Vortragsreihe mit renommierten Wissenschaftlern

Mit den Hertz Lectures erinnert DESY an die Verdienste von Heinrich Hertz: Er lieferte den Beweis, dass Magnetismus und Elektrizität zwei Erscheinungsformen von nur einer Kraft sind - dem Elektromagnetismus. Heinrich Hertz wurde 1857 in Hamburg geboren. Viele Aspekte der aktuellen Teilchenphysik bei DESY folgen den Ideen von Heinrich Hertz mit dem Ziel, eine einheitliche Beschreibung aller Naturkräfte zu erreichen. Die Englischsprachigen Vorträge von international renommierten Wissenschaftlern geben einem breiten Publikum Einblicke in die moderne Grundlagenforschung.

Consensus and confusion in cosmology

Hertz Lecture 2024

Prof. Dr. Marc Kamionkowski

Johns Hopkins University

The past quarter century has been a period of rapid progress in our understanding of the origin and evolution of the Universe. We now have a simple mathematical model that can account for the gross features of our Universe as well as detailed information from precise measurements and observations.

The model requires, though, several ingredients, such as dark matter and dark energy, that are not to be found within our current understanding of the fundamental laws of physics. There has also emerged, in the past few years, some inconsistencies between various measurements. In this talk, I will describe the triumphs of our current cosmological model, as well as its shortcomings.
