Cosmic microwave background polarization encodes information not only on the early universe but also dark energy, neutrino mass, and gravity in the late universe through CMB lensing. Ground based surveys such as ACTpol, PolarBear, SPTpol…
We present the first results based on Planck measurements of the CMB temperature and lensing-potential power spectra. The Planck spectra at high multipoles are extremely well described by the standard spatially-flat six-parameter LCDM…
We show that, in the presence of massive neutrinos, the Galileon gravity model provides a very good fit to the current CMB temperature, CMB lensing and BAO data. This model, which we dub ${\nu} \rm{Galileon}$, when assuming its stable…
In this letter, we investigate cosmology within the framework of modified $f(Q, L_m)$ gravity using the non-linear model $f(Q, L_m) = -Q + \alpha L_m^n + \beta$, where $\alpha$, $\beta$, and $n$ are free parameters. The modified Friedmann…

The concept of a rapidly sign-switching cosmological constant, interpreted as a mirror AdS-dS transition in the late universe and known as the $\Lambda_{\rm s}$CDM, has significantly improved the fit to observational data, offering a…
