Euclid CMBXC meeting Ferrara

4 Oct 2018, 08:00 → 5 Oct 2018, 18:00 Europe/Rome

IUSS A2/A3 (Ferrara)

The workshop is organized by the Euclid science working group CMBXC which deals with cross-correlations between Euclid fields and CMB related fields as measured by Planck and other probes. Coordinators of the group are Nabila Aghanim (IAS) and Carlo Baccigalupi (SISSA). The workshop is hosted by the Cosmology group at the University of Ferrara.
