Title: Cluster of galaxies from various perspectives: cosmology & astrophysics, simulations & observations
Date: Friday, September 14th, 2012
Time: 15:00
Venue: Villa Bazzoni

Abstract: Investigating cluster properties is crucial to validate our knowledge of the fundamental physical processes regulating the formation and evolution of cosmic structures and the interaction between constituents of the universe. In vision of future large cosmological cluster-based surveys such as e-Rosita, DES, LSST, and Euclid, I will review my past and recent effort to establish a robust theoretical framework we can use to interpret the large amount of data we will receive from the sky. A specific emphasis will be devoted to concentration-mass relation and, more generally, to mass profiles.
