Description
The current status of the ΛCDM cosmological model is reviewed. The main
observables and model constraints obtained from cosmic probes, such as
standard "candles" like supernovae, "rulers" like the cosmic
microwave background radiation and baryonic acoustic oscillations (BAO),
and "chronometers" like the observational Hubble rate data are
discussed. In particular, the BAO data release from the Dark Energy
Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is introduced and compared with previous
BAO data sets,
