Dear All,
Tomorrow, Wednesday, 7 September at 14:00 CET, in the Euler lecture
hall, Leonardo building,
Christian Maes (KU Leuven) will give a seminar titled:
*Statistical mechanical perspectives on some cosmological problems *
Abstract:
We review some well-known paradoxes in cosmology and give them a
statistical mechanics reading. Puzzles to be touched include the
horizon and the flatness problem, the information paradox, the dark
energy problem and the possible origin of the so-called space roar.
Each time, we emphasize the role of statistical arguments to complement
the dynamical understanding. Exciting directions for nonequilibrium
(statistical) cosmology are briefly added, especially concerning
geometric dissipation.
