We introduce a set of two-parameter models for the dark energy equation of state (EOS) $w(z)$ to investigate time-varying dark energy. The models are classified into two types according to their boundary behaviors at the redshift…
Recently, two issues concerning the three-year WMAP likelihood code were pointed out. On large angular scales ($l \lesssim 30$), a sub-optimal likelihood approximation resulted in a small power excess. On small angular scales ($l \gtrsim…

The concordance of the $\Lambda$CDM cosmological model in light of current observations has been the subject of an intense debate in recent months. The 2018 Planck Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature anisotropy power spectrum…
The concordance (LambdaCDM) model reproduces the main current cosmological observations assuming the validity of general relativity at all scales and epochs, the presence of cold dark matter, and of a cosmological constant, equivalent to a…
