Beyond Vanilla CMB and LSS will measure standard cosmological parameters like Wmh², Wbh², n, As, and h to a percent level in the coming years. While this progress is significant, numerous questions remain about dark energy, dark matter, primordial spectra, non-Gaussianity, isocurvature admixtures, neutrino masses, gravitational waves from the early universe, and particle decays. Addressing these concerns is crucial for advancing our understanding of the cosmos and is a primary focus of future research initiatives and discussions from Eisenstein's recent talk at ON.

Beyond Vanilla • CMB+LSS will measure the standard cosmological parameters (Wmh2, Wbh2, n, AS, h) to percent level in the next few years. • But there's lots more to do, e.g., • Dark Energy: cosmological constant or not? If not, what? • Dark Matter, deviations from CDM • Primordial spectrum • Primordial non-Gaussianity • Isocurvature admixtures • Neutrino Masses • Gravitational waves from the early Universe. • Particle decays • Galaxy physics From Eisenstein’s talk at ON
