The discovery of cosmic acceleration has generated tremendous
excitement among researchers in fundamental physics and cosmology. Most
experts agree that nothing short of a revolution will be required to fully
integrate the observed cosmic acceleration (which many attribute to a
mysterious "dark energy") with established physics. Currently this discovery
is driving very exciting research in both the theoretical and observational
domain. I will present two of these topics that particularly interest me:
