SURF@JPL: Announcements of Opportunity
Announcements of Opportunity are posted by JPL technical staff for the SURF@JPL program. Each AO indicates whether or not it is open to non-Caltech students. If an AO is NOT open to non-Caltech students, please DO NOT contact the mentor.
Announcements of Opportunity are posted as they are received. Please check back regularly for new AO submissions!
**Students applying for JPL projects should complete a SURF@JPL application instead of a "regular" SURF application.
**Students pursuing opportunities at JPL must be U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents.

| Project: |
Optimal information extraction from future cosmological surveys
(JPL AO No. 14176)

| Disciplines: | Physics, Modern Physics, Astro, Data SCIENTIST | ||||||||
| Mentor: |

| Background: |
The next-generation observatories promise to substantially advance our knowledge on the cosmological model governing the origin and evolution of the Universe. With their unprecedented sensitivity, survey area, and spectral coverage, traditional analysis methodologies such as detection-based galaxy survey become suboptimal for these new datasets. Therefore, it is essential to develop new analysis methods to more effectively probe the cosmological information from future experiments such as Rubin LSST, Euclid, Roman Space Telescope, and SPHEREx. |
||||||||
| Description: |
The project will develop new analysis technique to optimize information extraction from future cosmological survey such as SPHEREx. |
