Exploring the Components of the Universe Through Higher-Order Weak Lensing Statistics Higher-Order Weak Lensing Statistics

Our current cosmological model, backed by a large body of evidence from a variety of

different cosmological probes (for example, see [1, 2]), describes a Universe comprised of

around 5% normal baryonic matter, 22% cold dark matter and 73% dark energy. While many

cosmologists accept this so-called concordance cosmology – the ΛCDM cosmological model
