Local HII galaxy and cosmic chronometer data favor the Rh=ct universe over ΛCDM at 92% vs 8% likelihood, with Rh=ct satisfying all energy conditions while ΛCDM violates the strong energy condition at z≲2.

abstract
We present a spectroscopic catalog of (mostly) red galaxies in 24 galaxy clusters in the redshift range 0.17 < z < 0.92 obtained with the LRIS instrument on the Keck I telescope. Here we describe the observations and the galaxy spectra, including the discovery of three cD galaxies with LINER emission spectra, and the spectroscopic discovery of four new galaxy-galaxy lenses in cluster environments.

The energy conditions and model selection in the local Universe
Local HII galaxy and cosmic chronometer data favor the Rh=ct universe over ΛCDM at 92% vs 8% likelihood, with Rh=ct satisfying all energy conditions while ΛCDM violates the strong energy condition at z≲2.
