| contents | Recently the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) provided constraints on the expansion history from their Data Release 2 (DR2). The DESI baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements are well described by a flat $Λ$CDM model, but the preferred parameters are in mild ($2.3σ$) tension with those determined from the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The DESI collaboration has already explored a variety of solutions to this tension relying on variations in the late-time evolution of dark energy. Here we test an alternative -- the introduction of an ``early dark energy'' (EDE) component. We find that EDE models can alleviate the tension, though they lead to differences in other cosmological parameters that have observational implications. Particularly the EDE models that fit the acoustic datasets prefer lower $Ω_m$, higher $H_0$, $n_s$ and $σ_8$ in contrast to the late-time solutions. We discuss the current status and near-future prospects for distinguishing amongst these solutions. |
