abstract
Accurate ($\lesssim 1\% $) predictions for the anisotropy of the Cosmic Background Radiation (CBR) are essential for using future high-resolution ($\lesssim 1^\circ$) CBR maps to test cosmological models. In many inflationary models the variation (``running'') of the spectral index of the spectrum of density perturbations is a significant effect and leads to changes of around 1\% to 10\% in the CBR power spectrum. We propose a general method for taking running into account which uses the derivative of the spectral index ($dn/d\ln k$). Conversely, high-resolution CBR maps may be able to determine $dn/d\ln k$, giving important information about the inflationary potential.

Cosmological analysis of the DESI DR1 Lyman alpha 1D power spectrum
DESI DR1 Lyman-alpha data yields Δ²★=0.379±0.032 and n★=-2.309±0.019 at k★=0.009 km⁻¹s and z=3, sharpening N_eff, α_s, and β_s constraints by factors of 1.18-1.90 when combined with other probes.

Axion isocurvature and the model-building problem of low-scale inflation
A light pre-inflationary QCD axion that is all the dark matter forces the inflationary Hubble scale below ~10^7–10^10 GeV and, for canonical slow-roll inflation, confines the inflaton to sub-10^-4 M_Pl of field motion...

The $H_0$ world cup. II. A comprehensive competition between proposed Hubble tension solutions
Against a common 2025-26 dataset (Planck PR4, ACT DR6, SPT-3G, DESI DR2, Pantheon+), early dark energy and early modified gravity models win the H0 competition (~3σ residual tension), while radiation and late-time sol...

The $H_0$ World Cup. I. Summary of the baseline group stage results
In a systematic head-to-head analysis, early dark energy and early modified gravity models reduce the Hubble tension to about 3σ and are favored over ΛCDM, while radiation and late-time alternatives are not.

Constraining primordial oscillations and inflationary particle production with Planck, ACT DR6, and DESI DR2
Using combined CMB and LSS observations, the analysis sets 95% CL upper limits on oscillatory amplitudes at approximately 2% of A_s and a MAP value of 0.034 for the particle production coupling constant, finding no st...
