Research
My main research interests are in the interface of cosmology, that studies the Universe as a whole, and particle physics, that studies the smallest constituents of the Universe. We now know that if we are to reconstruct the history of the Universe from its origin to today, we must mix the physics of the very large with the physics of the very small. As part of this research, I investigate several very fundamental questions, such as "Can we understand the origin of the Universe?," or "Where does the matter we and everything else is made of come from?," or "What are the (dark) energy and (dark) matter that drive the expansion of the Universe?," and "Where does complex behavior in physical systems come from?" For more details, including access to my research publications, please visit my research group's web page.
