Professor Freese is Director of Nordita, the Institute for Theoretical Physics of the Nordic countries in Stockholm. She is also the George E. Uhlenbeck Professor of Physics at the University of Michigan.
Katherine Freese is working on a wide range of topics in theoretical cosmology and astroparticle physics. She was among the first to propose ways to discover and identify dark matter. She has worked on model building for the early universe and has proposed an alternative to dark energy. Her recent works include proposals of a new form of star, called dark star. Katherine Freese has also written the book `The Cosmic Cocktail: Three Parts Dark Matter', published by Princeton University Press in June 2014.
As usual, refreshments will be available in the foyer outside the lecture theatre from 4:30 pm and there will be a drinks and nibbles reception after the lecture.
The lecture is aimed at a broad audience. Please announce it widely and encourage your colleagues, students (UGs and PGs) and friends to attend. Everybody is welcome!
