摘要:Wide field astronomy has recently produced important results for the dark matter and dark energy problematics. I will summarize the scientific impact of the ongoing wide field surveys and focus on the LSST project (Large Synoptic Survey Telescope). This project will use a 8.4m diameter telescope, equipped with a 3.2 Gpixel wide field camera. Cosmological studies is one of his main objectives with a wide capability to address the problematics of the content, the structuration and the expansion history of the Universe, as well as the question of the neutrino mass.
