Observing the Dark Universe with Euclid - Conference presentations
17-18 November 2009
Space Expo - ESTEC
Noordwijk, The Netherlands
Euclid is an all-sky space mission designed to map the geometry of the dark Universe. Its primary objectives are the study of dark energy, dark matter, modified gravity and cosmic initial conditions.
At the two-day conference the Euclid science case for fundamental cosmology and legacy science were discussed, along with the current baseline for Euclid's payload, mission and ground segment. Synergies with related ground based and space based projects were also discussed.
