Challenges for ΛCDM: An update

L Perivolaropoulos, F Skara - New Astronomy Reviews, 2022 - Elsevier
A number of challenges to the standard Λ CDM model have been emerging during the past
few years as the accuracy of cosmological observations improves. In this review we discuss …

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 …

Ultra-light dark matter

EGM Ferreira - The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2021 - Springer
Ultra-light dark matter is a class of dark matter models (DM), where DM is composed by
bosons with masses ranging from 10^-24\, eV< m< eV 10-24 eV< m< eV. These models …

Small-Scale Challenges to the Λ CDM Paradigm

JS Bullock, M Boylan-Kolchin - Annual Review of Astronomy …, 2017 - annualreviews.org
The dark energy plus cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmological model has been a
demonstrably successful framework for predicting and explaining the large-scale structure of …

WIMP dark matter candidates and searches—current status and future prospects

L Roszkowski, EM Sessolo… - Reports on Progress in …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
We review several current aspects of dark matter theory and experiment. We overview the

Dark matter self-interactions and small scale structure

S Tulin, HB Yu - Physics Reports, 2018 - Elsevier
We review theories of dark matter (DM) beyond the collisionless paradigm, known as self-
interacting dark matter (SIDM), and their observable implications for astrophysical structure …

Galactic rotation curves versus ultralight dark matter: Implications of the soliton-host halo relation

N Bar, D Blas, K Blum, S Sibiryakov - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
Bosonic ultralight dark matter (ULDM) would form cored density distributions at the center of
galaxies. These cores, seen in numerical simulations, admit analytic description as the …

Structure formation in large-volume cosmological simulations of fuzzy dark matter: impact of the non-linear dynamics

S May, V Springel - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical …, 2021 - academic.oup.com
An ultralight bosonic particle of mass around is of special interest as a dark matter
candidate, as it both has particle physics motivations, and may give rise to notable …

Revisiting a negative cosmological constant from low-redshift data

L Visinelli, S Vagnozzi, U Danielsson - Symmetry, 2019 - mdpi.com
Persisting tensions between high-redshift and low-redshift cosmological observations
suggest the dark energy sector of the Universe might be more complex than the positive …

Massive galaxy clusters like El Gordo hint at primordial quantum diffusion

JM Ezquiaga, J García-Bellido, V Vennin - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
It is generally assumed within the standard cosmological model that initial density
perturbations are Gaussian at all scales. However, primordial quantum diffusion …
