  12. baryogenesis/nucleosynthesis • use BBN constraints to test cosmological models(MS) • effect of varying constants on primordial abundances(MF) • leptogenesis/baryogenesis (MF, NM, SS) • non-thermal dark matter and baryogenesis(BA)

  13. cosmological Inflation • Higgs inflation(MF, MS) • alternatives to scalar field inflation(NM, MS) • string theory models of inflation(BA,MS,MF) • particle physics models of inflation(MS,MF,JE) • multifield inflation/curvatons(MF,MS)

  14. CMB, large scale structure, lensing • vector fields in the CMB(JA, EL, NM, MS) • primordial non-gaussianities(EL, MS, MF) • CMB polarization and 2nd order CMB effects(EL)

  15. dark energy and modified gravity • model building(NM, MS, SS) • modified gravity(JA, EL, MF) • use of data to constrain DE models(MF)

  16. dark matter • astroparticle candidates(JE, MF, NM) • SUSY dark matter(BA, JE, MF) • dark matter in string/M theory(BA) • direct/indirect detection (BA, MF, JE) • dark matter and galactic dynamics(MF, MS) • dark matter interacting with stars (MF) • tests of alternative to the DM theories especially strong and weak lensing (NM, MS, SS) • lorentz-violating dark matter and astrophysical/cosmological tests using astrophysical sources, such as AGN, GRB(EL, JA, NM)

  17. gravity and gravitational waves • GW signals from cosmological sources (MS,EL) • gravitational back-reaction(EL, MS) • GW propagation in models beyond GR(MS) • numerical GR in cosmology(EL)
