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 …

[HTML][HTML] Combining pre-and post-recombination new physics to address cosmological tensions: Case study with varying electron mass and sign-switching …

Y Toda, W Giarè, E Özülker, E Di Valentino… - Physics of the Dark …, 2024 - Elsevier
It has recently been argued that the Hubble tension may call for a combination of both pre-
and post-recombination new physics. Motivated by these considerations, we provide one of …

Stepped partially acoustic dark matter: likelihood analysis and cosmological tensions

MA Buen-Abad, Z Chacko, C Kilic… - … of Cosmology and …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We generalize the recently proposed Stepped Partially Acoustic Dark Matter (SPartAcous)
model by including additional massless degrees of freedom in the dark radiation sector. We …

Exploring mirror twin Higgs cosmology with present and future weak lensing surveys

L Zu, C Zhang, HZ Chen, W Wang… - … of Cosmology and …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We explore the potential of precision cosmological data to study non-minimal dark sectors
by updating the cosmological constraint on the mirror twin Higgs model (MTH). The MTH …

Dark radiation from neutrino mixing after big bang nucleosynthesis

D Aloni, M Joseph, M Schmaltz, N Weiner - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
Light dark fermions can mass mix with the standard model (SM) neutrinos. As a result,
through oscillations and scattering, they can equilibrate in the early universe. Interactions of …

Multidimensionality of the Hubble tension: the roles of and

D Pedrotti, JQ Jiang, LA Escamilla, SS da Costa… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
The Hubble tension is inherently multidimensional, and bears important implications for
parameters beyond $ H_0 $. We discuss the key role of the matter density parameter …

Cosmic stability of dark matter from Pauli blocking

B Batell, W Yin - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
Why does dark matter (DM) live longer than the age of the Universe? Here we study a novel
sub-eV scalar DM candidate whose stability is due to the Pauli exclusion of its fermionic …

Resonant neutrino self-interactions and the tension

J Venzor, G Garcia-Arroyo, J De-Santiago… - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
In this work, we study the previously unexplored resonant region of neutrino self-
interactions. Current disagreement on late and early time observations of the Universe …

Dark matter-radiation scattering enhances CMB phase shift through dark matter-loading

S Ghosh, DWR Ho, Y Tsai - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2025 - iopscience.iop.org
A phase shift in the acoustic oscillations of cosmic microwave background (CMB) spectra is
a characteristic signature for the presence of non-photon radiation propagating differently …

Reconciling cosmological tensions with inelastic dark matter and dark radiation in a U (1) D framework

W Cho, KY Choi, S Mahapatra - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
We propose a novel and comprehensive particle physics framework that addresses multiple
cosmological tensions observed in recent measurements of the Hubble parameter, S 8, and …
