New physics and large scale structure

The current model of particles and fields works disconcertingly well. 
The standard model and general relativity fit existing data to such an extent 
that we are at a loss on how to move forward. I will argue that, if there is 
anything new out there, it will generally lead to new forces that can play a 
role in the formation of cosmic structure. I will explain how we should look 
for it and what we might find.
