Q&A - The Mysterious Architecture of the Universe - with J Richard Gott

J
Richard Gott and Astronomer Royal Lord Martin Reese answer questions
from the audience following the main event. Can 'emergent gravity'
explain dark matter and dark energy? Do academics agree on this view of
the Universe?

J.
Richard Gott was among the first cosmologists to propose that the
structure of our Universe is like a sponge made up of clusters of
galaxies intricately connected by filaments of galaxies – a magnificent
structure now called the 'cosmic web'. In this talk he will show how
ambitious telescope surveys such as the Sloan Digital Sky Survey are
transforming our understanding of the cosmos, and how the cosmic web
holds vital clues to the origins of the universe and the next trillion
years that lie ahead.

J Richard Gott is Emeritus Professor of
Astrophysical Sciences at Princeton University and is noted for his
contributions to cosmology and general relativity.

Lord Martin
Rees is a Fellow of Trinity College and Emeritus Professor of Cosmology
and Astrophysics at the University of Cambridge. He holds the honorary
title of Astronomer Royal and also Visiting Professor at Imperial
College London and at Leicester University. After studying at the
University of Cambridge, he held post-doctoral positions in the UK and
the USA, before becoming a professor at Sussex University. In 1973, he
became a fellow of King's College and Plumian Professor of Astronomy and
Experimental Philosophy at Cambridge (continuing in the latter post
until 1991) and served for ten years as director of Cambridge's
Institute of Astronomy. From 1992 to 2003 he was a Royal Society
Research Professor, and then from 2004 to 2012, Master of Trinity
College. In 2005 he was appointed to the House of Lords, and he was
President of the Royal Society for the period 2005-10.
