abstract

Following Gott et al. (2001), we use Huchra's final compilation of 553 measurements of the Hubble constant ($H_0$) to determine median statistical constraints on $H_0$. We find $H_0=68 \pm 5.5$ (or $\pm 1$) $\kmsmpc$, where the errors are the 95% statistical and systematic (or statistical) errors. With about two-third more measurements, these results are close to what Gott et al. found a decade ago, with smaller statistical errors and similar systematic errors.

  1. Updated observational constraints on $\phi$CDM dynamical dark energy cosmological models

    astro-ph.CO 2025-09 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Updated φCDM constraints from Planck 2018 + non-CMB data find α=0.055±0.041, consistent with a cosmological constant and only mildly favoring evolving quintessence.

  2. Is excess smoothing of Planck CMB ansiotropy data partially responsible for evidence for dark energy dynamics in other $w(z)$CDM parametrizations?

    astro-ph.CO 2025-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In three new w(z)CDM parametrizations, Planck CMB plus non-CMB data favor evolving dark energy over a cosmological constant at roughly 2 sigma when the Planck lensing anomaly parameter is fixed, and at roughly 1 sigma...

  3. Effect of Peak Absolute Magnitude of Type Ia Supernovae and Sound Horizon Values on Hubble Tension using DESI results

    astro-ph.CO 2024-12 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Using DESI DR1, Pantheon+ and cosmic chronometer data, the authors show that changing the Type Ia supernova absolute magnitude and sound-horizon priors moves the inferred H0 from about 73 to 68 km/s/Mpc, reducing the ...
