Description

This talk will present the latest cosmological results from the first data release (DR1) of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). DESI, with its unprecedented spectroscopic capabilities, provides a rich dataset that allows for a precise investigation of the large-scale structure of the universe. We analyze the distribution of galaxies, quasars, and the Lyman-alpha forest to extract parameters such as the Hubble constant and those for the dark energy equation of state and the matter density. We also combine DESI data with external datasets, including Cosmic Microwave Background and Supernovae, to push our constraints and identify tensions. We include a discussion of the various quality checks, including blinding, and elaborate on the implications of our results for current cosmological models.
