Dear all,<br>
<br>
On <b>Wed Mar 14, 13:15, room C6:1038</b> we will have a special
C&G working group session devoted to discussing the <b>EDGES</b>
detection of the 21-cm signal, and its possible implications for
physics <b>beyond the Standard Model</b>.<br>
<br>
In preparation for the discussion, here is a list of papers related
to the EDGES detection you might want to look at, divided by topic.<br>
<br>
