Funded Activity Summary

Probing dark energy with the largest 3D Map of the Universe. Dark Energy is one of the most profound mysteries of modern physics. It makes up about 70 percent of the Universe, but no compelling theory can explain its nature. This project aims to measure the properties of Dark Energy with unprecedented accuracy: an order of magnitude better than the state of the art. It aims to accomplish this by extracting information from the largest 3D map of the cosmos, built with the optical spectra of 35 million galaxies, observed by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. This project will foster Australia's historic leadership and investments in galaxy surveys via unique international partnerships, and produce cutting-edge tools for big data analyses with important applications in a wide range of industries.
