The puzzles of dark matter, dark energy and the nature of the early universe demand a joint venture between cosmology and particle physics. The Center for Particle Cosmology provides an incubator for such research, fostering the development of new theoretical approaches, grounded in the current epoch of remarkable experimental progress.

a panel discussion and multimedia event to celebrate the launch of the Center for Particle Cosmology. February 24th, 4:30pm - 7:00pm, Bodek Lounge, Houston Hall.
Center for Particle Cosmology Begins
The Center for Particle Cosmology at the University of Pennsylvania begins January 1, 2009.
Large Hadron Collider Nears Completion
The LHC is now entirely cooled and ready to begin colliding particles before the end of the year. The most important particle physics machine in decades holds great promise for uncovering new particle physics and providing insights into the earliest times in the universe.
