probabilistic cosmology

I spent time working through some inference problems in the future of cosmology, including how you use probabilistic redshift information, how you marginalize out beliefs about the density field and galaxy formation within that density field, and how you might get probabilistic information about the 2-pt function. I am confused about how much this all matters for different kinds of projects.

At lunch, Andy Haas (NYU) told us about searches for milli-charged particles at the LHC. He has a plan that would rule out a huge class of models.
