Seven hints that early-time new physics alone is not sufficient to solve the Hubble tension
I’m very excited to share that my latest single-author paper (on which I already gave three talks) has now been published in Universe (in a Special Issue guest edited by Eleonora Di Valentino, Leandros Perivolaropoulos, and Jackson Levi Said)! This is an opinion paper where I argue that the Hubble tension is even nastier than it looks and that, if we insist on it requiring new physics, it will not be enough to add early-time (i.e. pre-recombination) new physics - instead, I present seven reasons in favor of my argument that one should combine early- and late-time new physics, and potentially local new physics as well. The choice of number seven is motivated by Miller’s law, which states that the number of objects the average person can hold in working memory is 7±2. The full bibliographic coordinates for the paper are Universe 9 (2023) 393, and you can also find it in preprint form on arXiv: 2308.16628. Here is the link to the paper (which is published Open Access).
