The Anderson Group at EPFL focuses on unraveling the physics of stars and the cosmos using pulsations. They measure the current expansion of the Universe with maximum accuracy using pulsating stars and other stellar standard candles. By studying Cepheids, they aim to understand the physics of stars, probe the structure of nearby galaxies, and contribute to a better understanding of dark energy and the evolution of the cosmos since the Big Bang.
