摘要
We present model-marginalized limits on the six standard ΛCDM cosmological parameters (Ω_ c h^2, Ω_ b h^2, θ_ MC, τ_ reio, n_s and A_s), as well as on selected derived quantities (H_0, Ω_ m, σ_8, S_8 and r_ drag), obtained by considering three independent Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) experiments: the Planck satellite, the Atacama Cosmology Telescope, and South Pole Telescope. We also consider low redshift observations in the form of Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) data from the SDSS-IV eBOSS survey and Supernovae (SN) distance moduli measurements from the Pantheon-Plus catalog. The marginalized errors are stable against the different fiducial cosmologies explored in this study. The largest impact on the parameter accuracy is produced by varying the effective number of relativistic degrees of freedom (N_ eff) or the lensing amplitude (A_ lens). Nevertheless the marginalized errors on some derived parameters such as H_0 or Ω_ m can be up to two orders of magnitude larger than in the canonical ΛCDM scenario when considering only CMB data. In these cases, low redshift measurements are crucial for restoring the stability of the marginalized cosmological errors computed here. Overall, our results underscore remarkable stability in the mean values and precision of the main cosmological parameters, making irrelevant the choice of different possible cosmological scenarios once both high and low redshift probes are fully accounted for. The very same results should be understood as a tool to test exotic cosmological scenarios, as the marginalized values should be used in numerical analyses due to their robustness and slightly larger errors, providing a more realistic and conservative approach.
