Description

Testing gravity is challenging because gravity is the weakest of all fundamental forces of nature. Cosmology studies the largest scales accessible to the human being, with gravity being the driving force of cosmic evolution. Therefore, the Universe provides an ideal testbed of gravity. In this talk, I will describe my research on testing general relativity and searching for new gravitational physics with various cosmological probes.
