We reconstruct the equation of state $w(z)$ of dark energy (DE) using a recently released data set containing 172 type Ia supernovae without assuming the prior $w(z) geq -1$ (in contrast to previous studies). We find that dark energy evolves rapidly and metamorphoses from dust-like behaviour at high $z$ ($w simeq 0$ at $z sim 1$) to a strongly negative equation of state at present ($w lleq -1$ at $z simeq 0$). Dark energy metamorphosis appears to be a robust phenomenon which manifests for a large variety of SNe data samples provided one does not invoke the weak energy prior $rho + p geq 0$. Invoking this prior considerably weakens the rate of growth of $w(z)$. These results demonstrate that dark energy with an evolving equation of state provides a compelling alternative to a cosmological constant if data are analysed in a prior-free manner and the weak energy condition is not imposed by hand.

The measurement of present-day temperature of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), $T_0 = 2.72548 pm 0.00057$ K (1$sigma$), made by the Far-InfraRed Absolute Spectrophotometer (FIRAS), is one of the most precise measurements ever made in Cosmology.
On the other hand, estimates of the Hubble Constant, $H_0$, obtained from measurements of the CMB temperature fluctuations assuming the standard $Lambda$CDM model exhibit a large ($4.1sigma$) tension when compared with low-redshift, model-independent observations. Recently, some authors argued that a slightly change in $T_0$ could alleviate or solve the $H_0$-tension problem. Here, we investigate evidence for a hotter or colder universe by performing an independent analysis from currently available temperature-redshift $T(z)$ measurements. Our analysis (parametric and non-parametric) shows a good agreement with the FIRAS measurement and a discrepancy of $gtrsim 1.9sigma$ from the $T_0$ values required to solve the $H_0$ tension. This result reinforces the idea that a solution of the $H_0$-tension problem in fact requires either a better understanding of the systematic errors on the $H_0$ measurements or new physics.
Non-critical string cosmologies may be viewed as the analogue of off-equilibrium models arising within string theory as a result of a cosmically catastrophic event in the early Universe. Such models entail relaxing-to-zero dark energies provided by a
rolling dilaton field at late times. We discuss fits of such non-critical models to high-redshift supernovae data, including the recent ones by HST and ESSENCE and compare the results with those of a conventional model with Cold Dark Matter and a cosmological constant and a model invoking super-horizon perturbations.
With the entrance of cosmology in its new era of high precision experiments, low- and high-redshift observations set off tensions in the measurements of both the present-day expansion rate ($H_0$) and the clustering of matter ($S_8$). We provide a si
multaneous explanation of these tensions using the Parker-Raval Vacuum Metamorphosis (VM) model with the neutrino sector extended beyond the three massless Standard Model flavours and the curvature of the universe considered as a model parameter. To estimate the effect on cosmological observables we implement various extensions of the VM model in the standard texttt{CosmoMC} pipeline and establish which regions of parameter space are empirically viable to resolve the $H_0$ and $S_8$ tensions. We find that the likelihood analyses of the physically motivated VM model, which has the same number of free parameters as in the spatially-flat $Lambda$CDM model, always gives $H_0$ in agreement with the local measurements (even when BAO or Pantheon data are included) at the price of much larger $chi^2$ than $Lambda$CDM. The inclusion of massive neutrinos and extra relativistic species quantified through two well known parameters $sum m_{ u}$ and $N_{rm eff}$, does not modify this result, and in some cases improves the goodness of the fit. In particular, for the original VM+$sum m_ u$+$N_{rm eff}$ and the Planck+BAO+Pantheon dataset combination, we find evidence for $sum m_{ u}=0.80^{+0.18}_{-0.22}~{rm eV}$ at more than $3sigma$, no indication for extra neutrino species, $H_0=71.0pm1.2$~km/s/Mpc in agreement with local measurements, and $S_8=0.755pm0.032$ that solves the tension with the weak lensing measurements.

Recently a full-shape analysis of large-scale structure (LSS) data was employed to provide new constraints on a class of Early Dark Energy (EDE) models. In this note, we derive similar constraints on New Early Dark Energy (NEDE) using the publicly av
ailable PyBird code, which makes use of the effective field theory of LSS. We study the NEDE base model with the fraction of NEDE and the trigger field mass as two additional parameters allowed to vary freely while making simplifying assumptions about the decaying fluid sector. Including the full-shape analysis of LSS together with measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), baryonic acoustic oscillations (BAO) and supernovae (SN) data, we report $ H_0= 71.2 pm 1.0~textrm{km}, textrm{s}^{-1}, textrm{Mpc}^{-1}$ ($68 %$ C.L.) together with a $simeq 4 , sigma$ evidence for a non-vanishing fraction of NEDE. This is an insignificant change to the value previously found without full-shape LSS data, $ H_0= 71.4 pm 1.0~textrm{km}, textrm{s}^{-1}, textrm{Mpc}^{-1} $ ($68 %$ C.L.). As a result, while the NEDE fit cannot be improved upon the inclusion of additional LSS data, it is also not adversely affected by it, making it compatible with current constraints from LSS data. In fact, we find evidence that the effective field theory of LSS acts in favor of NEDE.
We investigate the behaviour of dark energy using the recently released supernova data of Riess et al ~(2004) and a model independent parameterization for dark energy (DE). We find that, if no priors are imposed on $Omega_{0m}$ and $h$, DE which evol
ves with time provides a better fit to the SNe data than $Lambda$CDM. This is also true if we include results from the WMAP CMB data. From a joint analysis of SNe+CMB, the best-fit DE model has $w_0 < -1$ at the present epoch and the transition from deceleration to acceleration occurs at $z_T = 0.39 pm 0.03$. However, DE evolution becomes weaker if the $Lambda$CDM based CMB results $Omega_{0m} = 0.27 pm 0.04$, $h = 0.71 pm 0.06$ are incorporated in the analysis. In this case, $z_T = 0.57 pm 0.07$. Our results also show that the extent of DE evolution is sensitive to the manner in which the supernova data is sampled.
