摘要
Recently,Riess et al.[1]reported the new result of local measurement of the Hubble constant,H_0=(73.00±1.75)km s^(-1) Mpc^(-1),which is 3.3σhigher than the fit result of ocal measurement of the Hubble constant, H_0 = (73.00 ± 1.75) km s^(-1) Mpc^(-1), which is 3.3σ higher than the fit result of (66.93±0.62) km s^(-1) Mpc^(-1) derived by the Planck collaboration based on theΛCDM model withmν=0.06 e V using the latest Planck CMB data.The tension between the latest H0measurement and the Planck data has inspired numerous discussions.On one hand,it might be caused by some systematic uncertainties in the measurements.On the other hand,perhaps one has omitted some unknown physical factors in the cosmological model,which leads to some inconsistencies among different data sets.For example,replacing the cosmological constant with a dynamical dark energy[2]and considering the extra relativistic degrees of freedom(i.e.,an additional parameter Neff)[1,3,4]both can help relieve this tension to some extent.It was also shown in ref.[4]that the involvement of light sterile neutrinos in the cosmological model can simultaneously relieve almost all the tensions among the current astrophysical observations,which leads to a new cosmic concordance.
