Location: 726 Broadway, 940, CCPP Seminar
Abstract: I will provide a review and a status update on Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN). After a brief overview of BBN, I will give examples of cosmological parameters and models of new physics that can be probed with our precise understanding of this cosmological epoch. I will finally discuss some open questions (or recently closed questions) relating to BBN and our understanding of cosmology, particle physics, and nuclear physics.
