Lendület funding

From quasars to cosmic voids: new probes of dark energy with extreme cosmic structures - in the context of the Lendület excellence program, the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (HAS) selected this research project for funding. See further details at the web page of the Eötvös Loránd Research Network (ELKH).

The main goal of this 5-year project is to extend the mapping of the largest cosmic voids and superclusters to un-probed, key redshift ranges (z>1). Then, the Lendület-LSS team will cross-correlate the positions of these super-structures with Cosmic Microwave Backgound (CMB) anisotropies to learn about the cosmic dark sector, and about the growth of density fluctuations in such extreme corners of the Universe.
