Explore a comprehensive lecture on Galaxy Surveys delivered by Shadab Alam as part of the 3rd IAGRG School on Gravitation and Cosmology at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into advanced observational techniques used in modern cosmology, focusing on large-scale structure surveys and their role in understanding the universe's composition and dynamics. Learn how galaxy surveys contribute to estimating crucial cosmological parameters, including dark matter density, dark energy, and spatial curvature. Part of a broader two-week intensive program covering cutting-edge topics in theoretical and observational cosmology, this lecture connects with other key themes including inflation, the Cosmological Standard Model, and CMB physics. Designed for graduate students and researchers in cosmology, gain insights into how these observational methods have revolutionized our understanding of the universe's largest scales and fundamental structure.
