Hubble tension: The evidence of new physics

JP Hu, FY Wang - Universe, 2023 - mdpi.com
The Λ CDM model provides a good fit to most astronomical observations but harbors large
areas of phenomenology and ignorance. With the improvements in the precision and …

[HTML][HTML] Seven hints that early-time new physics alone is not sufficient to solve the Hubble tension

S Vagnozzi - Universe, 2023 - mdpi.com
The Hubble tension has now grown to a level of significance which can no longer be
ignored and calls for a solution which, despite a huge number of attempts, has so far eluded …

Analysing the large-scale bulk flow using cosmicflows4: increasing tension with the standard cosmological model

R Watkins, T Allen, CJ Bradford… - Monthly Notices of …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We present an estimate of the bulk flow in a volume of radii 150− 200 h− 1 Mpc using the
minimum variance method with data from the CosmicFlows-4 (CF4) catalogue. The addition …

[HTML][HTML] Torsion at different scales: from materials to the Universe

NE Mavromatos, P Pais, A Iorio - Universe, 2023 - mdpi.com
The concept of torsion in geometry, although known for a long time, has not gained
considerable attention from the physics community until relatively recently, due to its diverse …

Cosmic chronometers to calibrate the ladders and measure the curvature of the Universe. A model-independent study

A Favale, A Gómez-Valent… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We use the state-of-the-art data on cosmic chronometers (CCH) and the Pantheon+
compilation of supernovae of Type Ia (SNIa) to test the constancy of the SNIa absolute …

Testing the cosmological principle with CatWISE quasars: a bayesian analysis of the number-count dipole

L Dam, GF Lewis, BJ Brewer - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
ABSTRACT The Cosmological Principle, that the Universe is homogeneous and isotropic on
sufficiently large scales, underpins the standard model of cosmology. However, a recent …

Implications for the Hubble tension from the ages of the oldest astrophysical objects

S Vagnozzi, F Pacucci, A Loeb - Journal of High Energy Astrophysics, 2022 - Elsevier
We use the ages of old astrophysical objects (OAO) in the redshift range 0≲ z≲ 8 as
stringent tests of the late-time cosmic expansion history. Since the age of the Universe at any …

Testing the cosmological principle with the Pantheon+ sample and the region-fitting method

JP Hu, YY Wang, J Hu, FY Wang - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2024 - aanda.org
The cosmological principle is fundamental to the standard cosmological model. It assumes
that the Universe is homogeneous and isotropic on very large scales. As the basic …

[HTML][HTML] Accelerated structure formation: The early emergence of massive galaxies and clusters of galaxies

SS McGaugh, JM Schombert, F Lelli… - The Astrophysical …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
Galaxies in the early Universe appear to have grown too big too fast, assembling into
massive, monolithic objects more rapidly than anticipated in the hierarchical Lambda cold …

The cosmic dipole in the Quaia sample of quasars: a Bayesian analysis

V Mittal, OT Oayda, GF Lewis - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2024 - academic.oup.com
We present a Bayesian analysis of the Quaia sample of 1.3 million quasars as a test of the
cosmological principle. This principle postulates that the Universe is homogeneous and …
