Brentwood Library: Chronicles of a Peculiar Universe: Secrets of Our Dark Universe

Most of our Universe is made up of dark matter and dark energy, but so far scientists have had a hard time detecting or explaining them. PhD student Alexandra Terrana explores some of the big open questions in cosmology, what dark matter and energy are, and how an alternative theory of gravity might solve these mysteries.

Chronicles of a Peculiar Universe is a series of talks presented in collaboration with York University's Faculty of Science.
