ILC Cosmology

Abstract

Recent breakthroughs in cosmology pose questions that require particle physics answers. I review the problems of dark matter, baryogenesis, and dark energy and discuss how particle colliders, particularly the International Linear Collider, may advance our understanding of the contents and evolution of the Universe.
