Large-scale structure

The distribution of galaxies and clusters across the cosmos, reflecting the seeds of structure from early density fluctuations.

How Does Large-Scale Structure Test Cosmology?

How Does Large-Scale Structure Test Cosmology?

August 28, 2026 | Large-scale structure | Earnest S. Carroll

Large-scale structure—the cosmic web of galaxies and dark matter—offers one of the most powerful tests of the standard cosmological model. From the imprint of primordial fluctuations to the growth of clusters and voids, its patterns confirm the Lambda-CDM framework and reveal the history of the universe from the Planck epoch to today.

What Are Baryon Acoustic Oscillations? A Cosmic Ruler for the Universe

August 25, 2026 | BAO, Cosmology Concepts, Large-scale structure | Earnest S. Carroll

Baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) are subtle ripples in the distribution of matter across the cosmos, frozen in when the universe was only 380,000 years old. They serve as a standard ruler for measuring cosmic distances and probing the nature of dark energy.
