The Kavli Institute for Cosmology (KICC) provides an environment in which the University’s cosmologists and astrophysicists from different academic departments can share knowledge, work together on major projects and develop new initiatives.
Kavli research encompasses observational experiments and theoretical modelling of the Universe. It's origin and evolution from the 'Big Bang' through to the present and into the future.
Scientists at KICC have been leading, or have been heavily involved in many major observational, instrumental and computational projects, often involving large international collaborations.
The Kavli Institute brings together eminent Professors, Lecturers, Postdoctoral and Doctoral Researchers from three University departments, Institute of Astronomy, Cavendish Astrophysics and Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP) together with visiting academics from around the world.
Researchers will use cutting-edge quantum technologies to transform our understanding of the universe and answer key questions such as the nature of dark matter and black holes.
