N. MacCrann works in observational cosmology, using large survey data to study the structure and evolution of the universe. Their work involves analyzing weak gravitational lensing (how mass bends light) and galaxy clustering from surveys like the Dark Energy Survey, as well as cosmic microwave background (CMB) data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope, to test models of dark matter, dark energy, and gravity. This research combines large collaborative survey projects with statistical and computational methods to constrain cosmological parameters.
