Conference at CosKASI

The quest to construct a complete and consistent cosmological model relies on combining data from a number of different sources. Data from the cosmic microwave background, standard candles, sirens, and rulers, the cosmological large-scale structure, and the abundances of chemical elements have all been combined to create the concordance model of cosmology, ΛCDM. With improved technology, new types of measurements and detections will become possible, and can be added to the ensemble of data sets.

As the data expands, there may be correlations between the data sets, and often the strongest constraints and greatest gain in knowledge can come from the correlations inside and between datasets. Some examples of cross-correlations include galaxy-galaxy lensing, time-delay between GW events and the electromagnetic counterpart, higher-order correlations between density fluctuations (non-Gaussianity), time-lag in the of continuum- and line-emission of quasars (reverberation mapping), the Integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect, and others.

In the workshop we will discuss the opportunities that current and future data represent, the space of theories that can be tested with such data, as well as the sharing of ideas and techniques. This will be a focussed workshop, with invited and submitted presentations, as well as adequate time for discussion.
