520    The past two decades have observed dramatic advancement in
       our understanding of the universe. Such progress in turn 
       has triggered further questions yet to be answered. 
       Aspired by such prospects, several institutions dedicated 
       to the research of cosmology have been established in the 
       last decade, which include the Leung Center for Cosmology 
       and Particle Astrophysics (LeCosPA) at the National Taiwan
       University. To celebrate its 4th anniversary the First 
       LeCosPA Symposium was held in February 2012 at NTU. 
       Internationally renowned physicists and authorities in 
       cosmology, particle astrophysics, gravity and general 
       relativity, and high energy physics convened to survey our
       present understanding of the universe and to explore the 
       future prospects from both theoretical and experimental 
       perspectives. Topics covered include the detection and the
       nature of dark matter and dark energy, the fundamental 
       understanding of space, time, mass and gravity itself, 
       cosmological constant and vacuum energy, etc. This book 
       should be valuable to researchers and students in the 
       field of cosmology and particle astrophysics.
