A Symmetry of Cosmological Observables, and a High Hubble Constant as an Indicator of a Mirror World Dark Sector [CEA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/2107.13000


We point out a previously unnoticed symmetry of many important cosmological observables and show that a cosmological model with a “mirror world” dark sector can exploit this symmetry to completely eliminate the Hubble tension. Our work motivates searches for both a more detailed particle physics model that satisfies laboratory constraints and a means of increasing the cosmic photon scattering rate that respects observational bounds on the primordial helium abundance.
