We present new constraints on cosmic variations of Newton's gravitational constant by making use of the latest CMB data from WMAP, BOOMERANG, CBI and ACBAR experiments and independent constraints coming from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. We found that current CMB data provide constraints at the 10% level, that can be improved to 3% by including BBN data. We show that future data expected from the Planck satellite could constrain G at the 1.5% level while an ultimate, cosmic variance limited, CMB experiment could reach a precision of about 0.4%, competitive with current laboratory measurements.

Hubble Tension and the G-step Model: Re-examination of Recent Constraints on Modified Local Physics
The paper argues that the G-step model remains a viable solution to the Hubble tension by widening error bars, adopting a weaker luminosity-gravity scaling, and reinterpreting Earth history and distance-ladder data.

Probing Scalar-Photon Coupling in the Early Universe: Implications for CMB Temperature and Anisotropies
For a scalar field coupled to radiation, the paper derives a modified CMB temperature law T(z) = T0(1+z)^(1-ε/4) and argues that positive ε shifts acoustic peaks to larger scales, claiming this eases the Hubble tension.
