The growth index of matter fluctuations is computed for ten distinct accelerating cosmological models and confronted to the latest growth rate data via a two-step process. First, we implement a joint statistical analysis in order to place…
Recent observational analyses have revealed a significant tension in the growth index $\gamma$, which characterizes the growth rate of cosmic structures. Specifically, when treating $\gamma$ as a free parameter within $\Lambda$CDM…
The parameter $\sigma_8$ is the rms mass fluctuations on a scale of $R_8=8h^{-1}$ Mpc and is used to quantify the amplitude of matter fluctuations at linear scales. However, the dependence of $R_8$ on $h$ complicates direct comparisons of…
We present cosmological parameter constraints from the SFI++ galaxy peculiar velocity survey, the largest galaxy peculiar velocity sample to date. The analysis is performed by using the gridding method developed in Abate et al. (2008). We…
The key probes of the growth of large-scale structure are its rate $f$ and amplitude $\sigma_8$. Redshift space distortions in the galaxy power spectrum allow us to measure only the combination $f\sigma_8$, which can be used to constrain…
One problem of the $\Lambda$CDM model is the tension between the $S_8$ found in Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) experiments and the smaller one obtained from large-scale observations in the late Universe. The $\sigma_8$ quantifies the…
We investigate whether the two cosmological discrepancies on the Hubble constant ($H_0$) and the matter fluctuation parameter ($\sigma_8$) are suggesting and compatible with the existence of an additional one on the matter density. Knowing…
In this study, we analyse constraints on the growth index of matter perturbations, $\gamma$, within the framework of $f(Q)$ gravity, using recent cosmological observations, at the background and the perturbation levels, including…
Constraints on the cosmological concordance model parameters from observables at different redshifts are usually obtained using the locally measured value of the gravitational constant $G_N$. Here we relax this assumption, by considering…
Measurements of the cosmological parameter $S_8$ provided by cosmic microwave background and large scale structure data reveal some tension between them, suggesting that the clustering features of matter in these early and late cosmological…
We carry out a multi-probe self-consistency test of the flat $\Lambda$CDM model with the aim of exploring potential causes of the reported tensions between high- and low-redshift cosmological observations. We divide the model into two…
We analyze the claimed tension between redshift space distorsions measurements of $f(z)\sigma_8(z)$ and the predictions of standard $\Lambda$CDM (Planck 2015 and 2018) cosmology. We consider a dataset consisting of 17 data points extending…
Recent weak lensing surveys have revealed that the direct measurement of the parameter combination $S_8\equiv\sigma_8(\Omega_m/0.3)^{0.5}$ -- where $\sigma_8$ is a measure of the amplitude of matter fluctuations on 8 $h^{-1}$Mpc scales --…
The excellent measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) fluctuations by Planck allow us to tightly constrain the amplitude of matter fluctuations at redshift $\sim 1100$ in the $\Lambda$-cold dark matter ($\Lambda$CDM) model.…
In the literature, it was proposed that the growth index $\gamma$ is useful to distinguish the scenarios of dark energy and modified gravity. In the present work, we consider the constraints on the growth index $\gamma$ by using the latest…
Assuming a minimal $\Lambda$CDM cosmology with three massive neutrinos, the joint analysis of Planck cosmic microwave background data, DESI baryon acoustic oscillations, and distance moduli measurements of Type Ia supernovae from the…
We present constraints on the amplitude of matter fluctuations from the clustering of galaxies and their cross-correlation with the gravitational lensing convergence of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), focusing on low redshifts…
We use the clustering properties of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) and the growth rate data provided by the various galaxy surveys in order to constrain the growth index ($\gamma$) of the linear matter fluctuations. We perform a standard…
The parameter $S_8 \equiv \sigma_8 (\Omega_m/0.3)^{0.5}$ quantifies the amplitude of matter density fluctuations. A persistent discrepancy exists between early-universe CMB observations and late-universe probes. This review assesses the…
Hubble constant $H_0$ and weighted amplitude of matter fluctuations $S_8$ determinations are biased to higher and lower values, respectively, in the late Universe with respect to early Universe values inferred by the Planck collaboration…
