CosmoPhys

I had in mind to create a list of recent papers I found of interest that also had an author's talk available and in some cases a review. But after starting this post, I realized it's really so much better to have this data input into the recently initiated and excellent ResearchSeminars.org site, which has great listing and filtering capabilities and is becoming widely used. So I volunteered to the organizers of two cosmology talk series to input their data: Cosmology Talks on youtube hosted by Shaun Hotchkiss and CosmoConβ on youtube, aka Cosmology from Home. The target audience for these are researchers in the field. Now at the Research Seminars site, both Cosmology Talks and CosmoConβ are listed with all their current talks. Also, the Cosmology Talks series includes indexed links to the times of major sections of each talk as a convenience and helpful reference feature.

So the following starter list is discontinued in favor of the above:
