University of Texas at Austin-McDonald Observatory: Early Dark Energy Could Resolve Cosmology's Two Biggest Puzzles
FORT DAVIS, Texas, Sept. 15 (TNSres) -- The University of Texas at Austin's McDonald Observatory issued the following news release: A new study by physicists at MIT and The University of Texas at Austin tackles two of the biggest puzzles in cosmology. They are the Hubble tension, which refers to a mismatch in measurements of how fast the universe is expanding; and observations of numerous early, bright galaxies at a time when the early universe should have been much less populated.
