David Weinberg uses measurements of galaxy clustering and weak gravitational lensing to probe the physical origin of accelerating cosmic expansion. He interprets measurements of elemental abundances in stars to learn about the history of the Milky Way and other galaxies and about nucleosynthesis in supernovae.
