is pleased to announce a colloquium

Paolo Gondolo

In Quest of Dark Matter

Cosmological observations support a model of the universe in which the present amount of baryons accounted for is only a part of the total amount of baryons, the baryons are only a part of the total amount of matter, and matter is only a part of the total mass-energy of the universe. Where are the missing baryons? What is the non-baryonic matter? I will present evidence for missing baryons, and I will discuss methods and prospects of detecting non-baryonic dark matter, super symmetric in particular. New speculations on the rest of the mass-energy will conclude the talk.
