The ΛCDM model has been extraordinarily successful, providing a coherent framework that explains the cosmic microwave background, baryon acoustic oscillations, and large‑scale structure with remarkable precision. Yet, despite this robustness, persistent anomalies such as the Hubble tension (H₀) and the S₈ tension reveal its limits. My independent research with the AQ model builds directly on ΛCDM’s strengths: it validates the standard framework where it excels, but offers a decisive upgrade by resolving both tensions simultaneously while preserving BAO and CMB consistency.
The AQ model is grounded in quantitative predictions and empirical consistency, providing precise, falsifiable results aligned with robust cosmological datasets. For example, AQ yields H₀ ≈ 70.8 ± 0.9 km/s/Mpc and S₈ ≈ 0.78 ± 0.02, bridging the gap between Planck and local observations. Most alternative approaches address one anomaly at a time; AQ is unusual in resolving both simultaneously within a falsifiable framework. This dual achievement suggests that cosmology can move beyond the current divide, uniting robustness with innovation.
I present these results not only to highlight scientific progress but to open the way toward a serious partnership. Institutions such as FQXi have a unique role in supporting independent research that bridges rigor and innovation, and I would welcome the opportunity to explore how this collaboration could be developed further.
