Some persistent cosmic tensions

I took the occasion of the NEIU debate to refresh my knowledge of the status of some of the persistent tensions in cosmology. There wasn't enough time to discuss those, so I thought I'd go through a few of them here. These issues tend to get downplayed or outright ignored when we hype LCDM's successes.

Abstract

I took the occasion of the NEIU debate to refresh my knowledge of the status of some of the persistent tensions in cosmology. There wasn't enough time to discuss those, so I thought I'd go through a few of them here. These issues tend to get downplayed or outright ignored when we hype LCDM's successes.
