Recent DESI BAO measurements, combined with CMB data, reveal a tension within the $\Lambda$CDM model that leads to a discrepancy between cosmological and laboratory bounds on the summed neutrino mass. We show that a recoupled interacting…

Current tensions in cosmology, including $H_0$ and $\sigma_8$, provide one of the strong reasons to suspect the existence of physics beyond the standard model of cosmology ($\Lambda$CDM). In this paper, we investigate if there is a relation…

The current discrepancy between the CMB and weak lensing measurements of the amplitude of matter fluctuations, the so-called $S_8$ tension, has attracted a great deal of recent attention, as it may show a crack in the $\Lambda$CDM model of…

Some cosmological models with non-negligible dark energy fractions in particular windows of the pre-recombination epoch are capable of alleviating the Hubble tension quite efficiently, while keeping the good description of the data that are…

In the effort to define the main features a successful solution to the Hubble tension should have, growing evidence has emerged pointing to the need for models able to modify the expansion (and possibly thermal) history of the universe both…

Cosmological models exhibiting crossing of the phantom divide improve the fit to current data, suggesting late-time dark energy (DE) dynamics at $\sim3\sigma$ CL. However, they favor low values of $H_0$, in tension with SH0ES. This may…

It has been intensively discussed if modifications in the dynamics of the Universe at late times is able or not to solve the $H_0$ tension. On the other hand, it has also been argued that the $H_0$ tension is actually a tension on the…
