First cosmological results using Type Ia supernovae from the Dark Energy Survey: measurement of the Hubble constant
Abstract: We present an improved measurement of the Hubble constant (H 0 ) using the 'inverse distance ladder' method, which adds the information from 207 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) at redshift 0.018 < z < 0.85 to existing distance measurements of 122 low redshift (z < 0.07) SNe Ia (Low-z) and measurements of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAOs). Whereas traditional measurements of H 0 with SNe Ia use a distance ladder of parallax and Cepheid variable stars, the inverse distance ladder …

“…The full cosmological analysis is presented in Wong et al (2019, in preparation). Our measurement is also consistent with recent ones from other techniques, not only from Planck and SH0ES, but also from the Carnegie Supernova Project (Burns et al 2018), the Megamaser Cosmology project (Braatz et al 2018), DES clustering and weak lensing + baryon acoustic oscillations + Big Bang nucleosynthesis experiments (Abbott et al 2018), the inverse distance ladder (e.g., Aubourg et al 2015;Macaulay et al 2019), extragalactic background light attenuation (e.g., Domínguez et al 2019), etc.…”

“…[30] the authors found r d = 143.9 ± 3.1 Mpc using CC, SNe Ia, BAO, and a local measurement of H 0 . Using the inverse distance ladder method, the DES collaboration found r d = 145.2±18.5 Mpc from SNe Ia and BAO measurements [60]. Our estimates are consistent with these measurements too.…”

“…Nevertheless, it is important to remark that the values of H 0 obtained by us in the current study are perfectly consistent with those obtained by some authors that apply model-independent reconstruction techniques and low-redshift data from SNIa, BAO and H(z) data points from cosmic chronometers, see e.g. [73][74][75][76][77]. In the DDE scenarios analyzed in this paper, the σ 8 -tension is directly linked with the H 0 -tension.…”
