We propose a new model of Early Dark Energy (EDE) as a solution to the Hubble tension in cosmology, the apparent discrepancy between local measurements of the Hubble constant $H_0\simeq 74$ km s$^{-1}$ Mpc$^{-1}$ and $H_0\simeq 67$ km…

Early dark energy (EDE), introduced at the epoch of matter-radiation equality to alleviate the Hubble tension, has posed a new coincidence problem: why EDE appears at matter-radiation equality when their physics are completely unrelated? To…
New Early Dark Energy introduces a new phase of dark energy that decays in a fast-triggered phase transition around matter-radiation equality. The presence of a trigger mechanism sets it apart from other early dark energy models. Here, we…
