Quantifying the concordance between different cosmological experiments is important for testing the validity of theoretical models and systematics in the observations. In earlier work, we thus proposed the Surprise, a concordance measure…
To shed light on the fundamental problems posed by Dark Energy and Dark Matter, a large number of experiments have been performed and combined to constrain cosmological models. We propose a novel way of quantifying the information gained by…
Assessing the consistency of parameter constraints derived from different cosmological probes is an important way to test the validity of the underlying cosmological model. In an earlier work [Nicola et al., 2017], we computed constraints…
The subject of this paper is a quantification of the information content of cosmological probes of the large-scale structures, specifically of temperature and polarisation anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background, CMB-lensing, weak…
Recent progress in cosmology has relied on combining different cosmological probes. In earlier work, we implemented an integrated approach to cosmology where the probes are combined into a common framework at the map level. This has the…

Combining cosmological probes has consolidated the standard cosmological model with percent precision, but some tensions have recently emerged when certain parameters are estimated from the local or primordial Universe. The origin of this…
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 obtain the reduced CMB data $\{l_A, R, z_*\}$ from WMAP9, WMAP9+BICEP2, Planck+WP and Planck+WP+BICEP2 for the $\Lambda$CDM and $w$CDM models with or without spatial curvature. We then use these reduced CMB data in combination with…
We present updated constraints on cosmological parameters in a 12-parameter model, extending the standard six-parameter $\Lambda$CDM by including dynamical dark energy (DE: $w_0$, $w_a$), the sum of neutrino masses ($\sum m_{\nu}$), the…
