A Review on Resolving the Hubble Tension via Late-Universe Physics

Abstract

The $\Lambda$CDM cosmological model has been successful in explaining many astronomical observations. However, recent observations increasingly point to deviations from the standard $\Lambda$CDM framework. Among these, one of the most significant discrepancies is the \textit{Hubble tension}, which refers to the difference in values obtained for the Hubble constant $H_0$ from high-redshift measurement and local observation. To address this issue, numerous cosmological models and methodological approaches have been proposed. This review offers a concise overview of recent progress in resolving the Hubble tension. The combination of Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) and uncalibrated Type Ia supernovae data yields a value for $H_0$ that is significantly higher than the $\Lambda$CDM predication based on early-universe probes, even without incorporating local distance ladder constraints. This result indicates that the origin of the Hubble tension lies in new physics at low redshifts. Our findings suggest that although many unresolved systematics persist in current observations, they are insufficient to account for the magnitude of the current Hubble tension. This implies the likely existence of new physical mechanisms that have yet to be discovered.
