Project in cosmology or theoretical particle physics ?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on selecting a master's project in cosmology or theoretical particle physics. The user expresses a preference for projects related to cosmic rays and the CMS Experiment at CERN, highlighting potential research opportunities involving galaxy surveys and the bispectrum of primordial fluctuations. They seek guidance on additional cosmological projects that can lead to publishable papers. The user aims to finalize their project choice by the end of the week after reviewing relevant literature.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of cosmology and theoretical particle physics concepts
  • Familiarity with the CMS Experiment at CERN
  • Knowledge of galaxy surveys and clustering techniques
  • Ability to analyze primordial fluctuations and their implications
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the CMS Experiment at CERN for potential project ideas
  • Explore galaxy surveys and their applications in cosmology
  • Read papers on the bispectrum of primordial fluctuations
  • Investigate other cosmological projects suitable for master's level research
USEFUL FOR

Students in physics, particularly those specializing in cosmology or theoretical particle physics, as well as researchers looking for master's project ideas that can lead to publishable work.

Hey
I didnt know where to put this

so the masters projects we can do for next year came out ..
but I am not really interested in any of them

However we can propose projects

So i was thinking if anyone could lead me in the right direction
Im want something in either COSMOLOGY or THEORETICAL PARTICLE PHYSICS or Both LOL

There are experimental particle and astro projects .. But I don't enjoy them
For particle physics has to be within cosmic rays i think
and there is no real cosmology research so .. they do stuff mostly todo with stars and a galaxies

If there's any half way research which , that would be perfect

oh this my field in university so i think the CMS Experiment in CERN will be the exact what do you want for your master i hope that i help.

There are possible projects in using Galaxy surveys/clustering to constrain and measure the bispectrum of primordial fluctuations? Would allow you to explore particle physics models for inflation as well as the applications to large scale structure?

http://arxiv.org/abs/0711.4126 - I like this paper.

Not within cosmic rays though, sorry.

Hey thanks a lot guys these both look very interesting .. I am going to have to give them both a thorough research


And just talked to my lecturer and he said it doesn't have to be within cosmic rays, and can be in any field in cosmology and particle physics aslong as it is masters level and a paper can be published from it :D

anyone know of any more purely cosmological projects?
i want to read a few more papers by then end of next week so i know exactly what i want and don't want when i see my lecturer
