Scientists zero in on why time flows in one direction
1 November 2004		Scientists zero in on why time flows in one direction "... By Steve Koppes, News Office The big bang could be a normal event in the natural evolution of the universe that will happen repeatedly over incredibly vast time scales as the universe expands, empties out and cools off, according to two University of Chicago physicists. “We like to say that the big bang is nothing special in the history of our universe,” said Sean Carroll, an Assistant Professor in Physics at the University of Chicago. Carroll and University of Chicago graduate student Jennifer Chen will electronically publish a paper describing their ideas at http://arxiv.org/. ..." News Office, The University of Chicago

15 September 2004		KICP Faculty Sean Carroll and Graduate Student Jennifer Chen propose alternative to Big Bang "... "The Big Bang may have been smaller than we suspect. That's the intriguing conclusion of two researchers at the University of Chicago who ponder the mysteries surrounding the origin of the universe. (BY SANDRA GUY SUN-TIMES COLUMNIST )" ..."

Milky Way's "Satellite Problem" Solved
14 June 2004		by Michael Schirber, Milky Way's "Satellite Problem" Solved "... Our Milky Way galaxy is surrounded by a dozen smaller orbiting galaxies. The size of this cosmic neighborhood has perplexed astrophysicists for some time because the currently favored theory of galaxy formation predicts 10 times as many satellites. But new computer simulations run by Andrey Kravtsov of the University of Chicago and his colleagues have shown that the relative paucity of Milky Way companions may not be such a concern after all. ..."

Fred Kavli, Kavli Foundation donate $7.5 million to University of Chicago for cosmological physics institute
10 March 2004		Fred Kavli, Kavli Foundation donate $7.5 million to University of Chicago for cosmological physics institute "... The University of Chicago will devote $7.5 million in donations from Fred Kavli and the Kavli Foundation of Oxnard, Calif., to studying some of the most puzzling scientific questions about the origin and evolution of the universe and the laws that govern it. The funds will make permanent the Center for Cosmological Physics, established in 2001 by the National Science Foundation. The center will be renamed the Kavli Institute for Cosmological Physics. The new institute is one of seven being established by Kavli around the country and in Europe on brain science, nanoscience and cosmology. ..." University of Chicago, Press Release
