Conference Talk

Speaker

Tim Tait (University of California, Irvine)

Description

I will discuss BBN and a new python-based tool (PRyMordial) which allows one to easily simulate it both in the context of a standard cosmological model as well as in various scenarios of physics beyond the Standard Model. I’ll discuss how BBN provides a unique probe of physics relevant for the ~ MeV scale, and how it constrains or hints at modifications to the standard picture.
