abstract

We present a comprehensive analysis of statistical tools for evaluating tensions in cosmological parameter estimates arising from distinct datasets. Focusing on the unresolved Hubble constant ($H_0$) tension, we explore the Pantheon Plus + SH0ES (PPS) compilation, which includes low-redshift Cepheid data from the SH0ES collaboration, along with the latest release of CMB data from the Planck collaboration, Cosmic Chronometers (CC) dataset and the most recent Baryonic Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) datasets. Employing various tension metrics, we quantitatively assess the inconsistencies in parameter estimates, emphasizing the importance of capturing multidimensional tensions. Our results reveal substantial tension between PPS and Planck 2018 datasets and moderate tension between the BAO data sets and all other datasets. We highlight the importance of adopting these metrics to enhance the precision of future cosmological analyses and facilitate the resolution of existing tensions.

  1. The $H_0$ world cup. II. A comprehensive competition between proposed Hubble tension solutions

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Against a common 2025-26 dataset (Planck PR4, ACT DR6, SPT-3G, DESI DR2, Pantheon+), early dark energy and early modified gravity models win the H0 competition (~3σ residual tension), while radiation and late-time sol...

  2. Statistical consistency of sign-switching vacuum energy with cosmological observations

    astro-ph.CO 2026-03 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Using exact non-Gaussian shift and posterior predictive tests, ΛsCDM improves CMB–BAO consistency and softens but does not resolve the Hubble tension, which persists at p≈4×10⁻⁴.

  3. Generalizing the relativistic precession model of quasi-periodic oscillations through anharmonic corrections

    gr-qc 2025-04 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Adding a quadratic radial correction changes the predicted lower QPO frequency near the ISCO, but fits to eight neutron stars show it is insufficient to rescue the relativistic precession model.
