AI Thread Summary
The latest results from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope reinforce confidence in the standard model of cosmology, suggesting no significant changes regarding inflation theories. Simple models like Staroninsky are not definitively ruled out but are less favored compared to more complex frameworks. The findings indicate a preference for models that align closely with the standard model's predictions. Researchers are encouraged to review the detailed results for a comprehensive understanding. Overall, the Atacama results contribute to ongoing discussions about the nature of inflation in cosmology.

Can you please cite your reference to the results from the Atacama telescope so we can take a look?
 
I would say no change to the status of any inflation aimed at ‘explaining’ the standard model initial state, since the conclusion is to increase confidence in the standard model of cosmology.

Thread 'Illuminating Black Hole Shadows with Dark Matter Annihilation'

Abstract The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has significantly advanced our ability to study black holes, achieving unprecedented spatial resolution and revealing horizon-scale structures. Notably, these observations feature a distinctive dark shadow—primarily arising from faint jet emissions—surrounded by a bright photon ring. Anticipated upgrades of the EHT promise substantial improvements in dynamic range, enabling deeper exploration of low-background regions, particularly the inner shadow...
