Testing the H0 and σ8 Tensions with Galaxy Surveys and Large-Scale Structure

Join a research presentation exploring how galaxy surveys and large-scale structure observations can help address two major cosmological tensions - the Hubble constant (H0) and the amplitude of matter fluctuations (σ8). Led by Alex Krolewski from the University of Waterloo, examine current evidence from galaxy clustering, weak lensing, and redshift-space distortions that contribute to understanding these fundamental disagreements in cosmological parameters. Delve into how next-generation galaxy surveys may provide crucial insights to resolve these tensions that challenge the standard ΛCDM model of cosmology.
