An overview of the work we in @CompactCollab are doing to figure out the topology of the Universe. Thanks to @PhysRevLett for focussing on it.
The first report of the COMPACT Collaboration finds that Cosmic Microwave Background data does not yet rule out the Universe having nontrivial topology, such a twisted 3-torus.

What shape is the Universe? An international team of scientists @CompactCollab are trying to find out newhumanist.org.uk/articles/…

Here is our new @CompactCollab paper, where we demonstrate that cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization measurements from upcoming experiments can provide new avenues for detecting cosmic topology (i.e., the shape of the Universe):

Is the universe infinite, or does it have a hidden shape waiting to be discovered? 🌌

Quanta Magazine (@QuantaMagazine) just published a story about our searches for the topology of the Universe:
Is the universe infinite and unbounded, or confined to a specific topology? Cosmologists are using new computational methods to find answers. Steve Nadis reports: quantamagazine.org/cosmologi…

Thanks a lot, Elizabeth Fernandez (@SparkDialog), Jade Tan-Holmes and Tom Groenestyn for creating such an incredible video!

Do you want to know why and how we search for the shape of the Universe? Watch this video where I answer these questions. @ift_uam_csic @CompactCollab
🔴Nuevo vídeo de YouTube, ¡en el aire!
¿Y si el universo tuviera la forma de un dónut?🍩
@YasharAkrami explica en este nuevo vídeo qué es la topología cósmica y cuáles son las pruebas y metodologías de las que disponemos para hallarla.
¡Emocionante!

Here is yet another @CompactCollab paper on cosmic topology, where we place constraints on lens spaces as a function of the curvature scale of the Universe:

Check out our new @CompactCollab paper led by @Amirsamandar, where we show that parity can be broken in the Universe without any parity-violating microphysics:

Check out our new COMPACT paper by @CompactCollab, where we have proposed a number of machine leaning techniques to search for the topology (global shape) of the Universe (led by Andrius Tamosiunas @Andrius_T_ and Fernando Cornet-Gomez):
