SUMMARY:Cosmological tensions? A guide for high energy theorists - William
  Handley (Cambridge U.)
DTSTART:20250131T160000Z
DTEND:20250131T170000Z
UID:TALK213256@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Terry Generet
DESCRIPTION:I will present a pedagogical overview of present status of cos
 mological 'tensions' (Hubble\, weak lensing\, curvature and dark energy)\,
  tailored for high energy theorists. I'll cover the principles of cosmolog
 ical measurement and inference\, contrasting these with particle physics a
 pproaches (including philosophical differences between frequentist and Bay
 esian methods). I'll cover why these tensions have been of such interest t
 o cosmologists for the past five years\, and provide a summary of the curr
 ent state of play following the latest JWST and DESI data this year\, and 
 what we can expect in the near future.
