Description
Among the major scientific breakthroughs of recent years, the discovery of
the Higgs  boson and the detection of gravitational waves are spectacular
successes crowning decades of effort by a large community. At the same time,
the cosmological observations show that the current description of the matter
and its interactions is incomplete. Among the open questions are: the nature
of dark matter which constitutes most of the matter of the universe
today; the absence of antimatter in the cosmos; the origin of the acceleration
of the expansion of the universe today and in the first moments just after
the Big Bang. I will discuss how all these questions are related to particle
physics in the primordial universe.
