Abstract
In March 2025, the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) released its last cosmological analysis along with a new cosmic microwave background (CMB) dataset. The sixth data release (DR6), including data collected from 2017 to 2022, covers 40% of the sky at arcminute resolution providing the most precise maps of CMB temperature and polarization. In this talk, I will give an overview of the challenges faced during the ACT DR6 analysis and describe its constraints on fundamental assumptions of the standard cosmological model and extensions to it.
Series This talk is part of the Cosmology Lunch series.
