29Excess Power on Large Scales?
Blake et al. 06
Padmanabhan et al. 06
30The origin of excess power
- Photo-z systematics?
- Window functions?
- Cosmic variance?
- Large scale redshift distortion?
- Large scale biasing?
- Gauge transformations?
- Modified early universe physics?

43Summary
-
- Many observations support the L-CDM model,
but - - What is the Dark Matter?
- - What is the Dark Energy?
- - Why are their amounts similar?
- If in 10 years it turns out that
- w-1 to within 1,
- then what??
- New Physics? The Anthropic Principle?

45Globalisation and the New Astronomy
- One definition of globalisation
- A decoupling of space and time - emphasising
that with instantaneous communications, knowledge
and culture can be shared around the world
simultaneously.
46Globalisation and the New Astronomy
- How is the New Astronomy affected by
globalisation? - Free information (WWW), big international
projects, - numerous conferences, telecons
-
- Recall the Cold War era
- Hot Dark Matter/top-down (Russia)
- vs. Cold Dark Matter/bottom-up (West)
- Is the agreement on the concordance model a
product of globalisation?
47Globalisation and the New Astronomy
- Independent communities are beneficial,
- but eventually they should
- talk to each other!
