The Physics of Fine-Tuning

How Does Dark Matter Act?

In the second part of their discussion, Celine Boehm and Justin Read talk about how dark matter acts, both on large scales, at early times, and in small galaxies much nearer to us.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

How Do We Find Dark Matter?

In the first part of their discussion, Justin Read and Celine Boehm go over our evidence for dark matter and consider the possible particles that could make it up.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

Dark Matter(s) Discussion

Celine Boehm, Rocky Kolb, and Justin Read discuss fine-tuning in dark matter models, how we judge astrophysical parameters to be fine-tuned, how we get evidence for dark matter, supersymmetry, and our prospects for finding the dark matter particle.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

The Level of Fine-Tuning it Takes to Make a Dark Matter Model

Dr. Celine Boehm (Durham) discusses the possible dark matter particles and the constraints--theoretical and experimental--on their parameter space.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

The Decade of the Wimp

Dr. Rocky Kolb (Chicago) discusses the theoretical reasons to expect dark matter to be a Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP), and the prospects for finding one.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

Astrophysical Probes of Dark Matter

Dr. Justin Read (Surrey) explains the astrophysical evidence for dark matter, and our prospects for getting more information about its nature and interaction by looking at nearby dwarf galaxies.

Big Questions - with Oxford Sparks

'Light' Part 3 - How does sunlight damage DNA?

Once we've received our genetic make-up from our parents our genomes are stable, right? What causes mutations in our DNA as we live and grow, and how do our cells repair damage?

The case of innovative bilateral DIEP flap surgery.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

New Frontiers in Cosmology

In the fourth part of their discussion, Joe Silk and John Peacock conjecture about future developments in cosmology. What part of cosmology is most likely to be fruitful? This discussion was conducted at Trinity College, Oxford, on May 12, 2016.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

Dark Energy and the Multiverse

In the third part of their discussion, Joe Silk and John Peacock consider approaches to dark energy. Should we accept the multiverse, or wait for a theory of quantum gravity?
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

New Data and New Work

In the second part of their discussion, Joe Silk and John Peacock discuss possible future sources of data and developments in cosmology. They conjecture about the search for dark matter and its impact on astronomy.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

New Statistics and Prediction

In the first part of their discussion, Joe Silk and John Peacock compare approaches to statistics and how these bear on predictions in cosmology, including Weinberg’s prediction of the cosmological constant.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

Practical Fine-Tuning

In the fourth part of their discussion, Luke Barnes and David Sloan look for ways the fine-tuning problems can lead to advances in physics.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

Comparing Theories

In the third part of their discussion, Luke Barnes and David Sloan puzzle over the way we compare theories, and whether there can be a theory that doesn’t have some unexplained posits.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

New Approaches to Probability

In the second part of their discussion, Luke Barnes and David Sloan go over the difference between frequentist and bayesian statistics, and how this difference applies to astrophysics and cosmology.
The Physics of Fine-Tuning

What Is Fine-Tuning?

In the first part of their discussion, Luke Barnes and David Sloan come up with a working understanding of fine-tuning. They also discuss various examples of fine-tuning in physics. This discussion was conducted at Trinity College, Oxford, on May 13, 2016
