abstract

Current tensions in cosmology, including $H_0$ and $\sigma_8$, provide one of the strong reasons to suspect the existence of physics beyond the standard model of cosmology ($\Lambda$CDM). In this paper, we investigate if there is a relation between these tensions and beyond cold dark matter scenarios. To model non-CDM, we assume a decaying dark matter (DDM) which is unstable and may decay into two daughter particles, a combination of cold dark matter, warm dark matter, and dark radiation, to explore a vast era of possibilities. We checked our model against CMB data and could show that decaying dark matter seems not a promising candidate to address the cosmological tensions.

  1. Interpreting the Hubble tension with a cascade decaying dark matter sector

    astro-ph.CO 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A cascade decaying dark matter model combining early and late effects still cannot reduce the Hubble tension below about 3 sigma, and is statistically disfavored relative to Lambda CDM.

  2. Alleviating Cosmological Tensions with the Hadrosymmetric Twin Higgs

    astro-ph.CO 2025-10 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    The HTH cosmology fit yields a negligible twin-pion decay rate and density, so the reported H0-tension relief is an artifact of widened parameter errors rather than a new physical mechanism.
