In this work we update the bounds on $\sum m_{\nu}$ from latest publicly available cosmological data and likelihoods using Bayesian analysis, while explicitly considering particular neutrino mass hierarchies. In the minimal $\Lambda\textrm{CDM}+\sum m_{\nu}$ model with most recent CMB data from Planck 2018 TT,TE,EE, lowE, and lensing; and BAO data from BOSS DR12, MGS, and 6dFGS, we find that at 95\% C.L. the bounds are: $\sum m_{\nu}<0.12$ eV (degenerate), $\sum m_{\nu}<0.15$ eV (normal), $\sum m_{\nu}<0.17$ eV (inverted). The bounds vary across the different mass orderings due to different priors on $\sum m_{\nu}$. Also, we find that the normal hierarchy is very mildly preferred relative to the inverted, using both minimum $\chi^2$ values and Bayesian Evidence ratios. In this paper we also provide bounds on $\sum m_{\nu}$ considering different hierarchies in various extended cosmological models: $\Lambda\textrm{CDM}+\sum m_{\nu}+r$, $w\textrm{CDM}+\sum m_{\nu}$, $w_0 w_a \textrm{CDM}+\sum m_{\nu}$, $w_0 w_a \textrm{CDM}+\sum m_{\nu}$ with $w(z)\geq -1$, $\Lambda \textrm{CDM} + \sum m_{\nu} + \Omega_k$, and $\Lambda \textrm{CDM} + \sum m_{\nu} + A_{\textrm{Lens}}$. We do not find any strong evidence of normal hierarchy over inverted hierarchy in the extended models either.

  1. Probing the small-scale primordial power spectrum via relic neutrinos and acoustic reheating

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Dissipation of small-scale primordial perturbations after neutrino decoupling cools relic neutrinos and reduces their abundance, enabling PTOLEMY to constrain the primordial curvature power spectrum to O(0.1) on scale...

    astro-ph.CO 2024-04 accept novelty 7.0

    First-year DESI BAO data are consistent with flat LambdaCDM and, when combined with CMB, show a 2.5-3.9 sigma preference for evolving dark energy (w0 > -1, wa < 0) that strengthens with certain supernova datasets.

  3. Constraining Neutrino Mass with the Void Weak Lensing Effect

    astro-ph.CO 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Simulations of void-shear cross-correlation demonstrate that void lensing can constrain total neutrino mass to σ(M_ν)=0.096 eV without shape noise and 0.340 eV with Stage-III-like noise.

  4. Negative neutrino mass or negative dark energy?

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    A sign-switching dark energy model (Λ_s CDM) recovers positive effective neutrino masses (0.055 ± 0.050 eV) consistent with oscillation data, unlike ΛCDM which prefers negative values (-0.075 eV), for DESI DR2 + CMB +...

    DESI DR2 BAO and full-shape data plus CMB yield ∑m_ν < 0.0642 eV (95% CL) under ΛCDM, in 3σ tension with oscillation lower limits, relaxed to <0.163 eV in w0waCDM.
