This is a short account, based on a talk given at the 2024 Moriond Cosmology Conference, of where and why string theory matters in early universe cosmology. It is written for a cosmology audience predisposed to be at best sceptical, and at worst contemptuous, of the notion that either quantum gravity or string theory has any relevance for their discipline. I cover inflation, CMB tensor modes, extended kination or tracker epochs and reheating.

  1. Cosmic superstrings in large volume compactifications: PTAs, LISA and time-varying tension

    astro-ph.CO 2025-04 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Cosmic superstrings with a time-varying tension in large-volume string compactifications generically predict a LISA-band spectral drop and a high-frequency f^4 boost, encoding the mass and decay of the volume modulus.
