Andreu Font Presents Latest DESI BAO Results at Harvard
May 5, 2025
During the week of April 15, 2025, Andreu Font delivered a talk at Harvard’s Center for Astrophysics, presenting the latest Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) results from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) collaboration. His presentation, titled “How Constant is the Cosmological Constant? Challenging the ΛCDM Model with New Measurements from the DESI Collaboration ”, explored how recent data may question key assumptions of the standard cosmological model.
The talk is available to watch online .
