1. Effects of the Higgs field on Inflation and Reheating
Abstract : The model of inflation - a period of accelerated expansion in the very early Universe - was introduced to give solutions to a number of problems encountered in the Standard Big Bang paradigm. Additionally, due to its quantum nature, inflation is able to generate the necessary primordial inhomogeneity “seeds”, which eventually evolve into large-scale structures. READ MORE

2. Weigh them all! : Cosmological searches for the neutrino mass scale and mass ordering
Abstract : The elusive neutrinos are among the most intriguing constituents of the particle zoo. The observation of neutrino flavour oscillations, indicating that neutrinos are massive, provides the only direct evidence for physics beyond the Standard Model. READ MORE

3. On the emergent structures at cosmic dawn
Abstract : Recent developments have granted us the means necessary for studying the emergence of the very first luminous structures in the Universe. The beckoning of the first generation of stars marks the end of the cosmic dark ages – thus entering into the cosmic dawn. READ MORE

4. Reconstructing the Primordial Seeds of Cosmic Structures in Galaxy Surveys
Abstract : One of the most outstanding questions in modern cosmology concerns the physical processes governing the primordial universe and the origin of cosmic structure. These primordial signals appear in a variety of cosmic large-scale structure probes, e.g. READ MORE

5. Delving in the Dark : Searching for Signatures of Non-Standard Physics in Cosmological and Astrophysical Observables
Abstract : The dark sectors of our Universe, dark matter and dark energy, together constitute about 96 % of the total energy content of the Universe. To date, we only have observational evidence for their existence. READ MORE
