| Abstract | This award funds the research activities of Professor Ken Van Tilburg at New York University. The current set of physical laws --- as encapsulated within the Standard Models of Particle Physics and Cosmology --- provide an exquisitely accurate and precise description of all known phenomena in nature. However, several puzzles still remain. The most tangible shortcoming is that the microscopic nature of dark matter, a mostly inert component comprising most of the matter density of the Galaxy and t |
