SUMMARY:Cosmological implications of the clustering of galaxies in BOSS 
DESCRIPTION:Cosmological implications of the clustering of galaxies in BOSS
  \nDr. Ariel Sánchez\n\nDriven by the potential of large-scale structure 
 (LSS)  observations to shed light on the physics behind the accelerated  e
 xpansion of the Universe, several ground-breaking galaxy surveys are  curr
 ently under way. These surveys will measure the LSS of the Universe  with 
 unprecedented precision, providing new insights not only on the  origin of
  cosmic acceleration, but also on many other important physical  parameter
 s. The ongoing Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS)  is an examp
 le of these new surveys. In this talk I review our  theoretical understand
 ing of LSS and the details of the analysis of  these measurements. I also 
 describe the cosmological implications of the  latest clustering measureme
 nts from BOSS, with an emphasis on the  problem of understanding cosmic ac
 celeration.
