The Local Distance Network: a community consensus report on the measurement of the Hubble constant at 1% precision

H0DN Collaboration, Stefano Casertano, Gagandeep Anand +35

The direct, empirical determination of the local value of the Hubble constant (H0) has markedly advanced thanks to improved instrumentation, measurement techniques, and distance es…

The Perfect Host: JWST Cepheid Observations in a Background-Free SN Ia Host Confirm No Bias in Hubble-Constant Measurements

Adam G. Riess, Siyang Li, Gagandeep S. Anand +8

Cycle 1 JWST observations of Cepheids in SN Ia hosts resolved their red-giant-dominated NIR backgrounds, sharply reducing crowding and showing that photometric bias in lower-resolu…

The CosmoVerse White Paper: Addressing observational tensions in cosmology with systematics and fundamental physics

Eleonora Di Valentino, Jackson Levi Said, Adam Riess +533

The standard model of cosmology has provided a good phenomenological description of a wide range of observations both at astrophysical and cosmological scales for several decades.…

JWST Validates HST Distance Measurements: Selection of Supernova Subsample Explains Differences in JWST Estimates of Local H0

Adam G. Riess, Dan Scolnic, Gagandeep S. Anand +16

JWST provides new opportunities to cross-check the HST Cepheid/SNeIa distance ladder, which yields the most precise local measure of H0. We analyze early JWST subsamples (~1/4 of t…

Tip of the Red Giant Branch Distances with JWST. II. I-band Measurements in a Sample of Hosts of 10 SN Ia Match HST Cepheids

Siyang Li, Gagandeep S. Anand, Adam G. Riess +7

The Hubble Tension, a >5 sigma discrepancy between direct and indirect measurements of the Hubble constant (H0), has persisted for a decade and motivated intense scrutiny of the pa…

Small Magellanic Cloud Cepheids Observed with the Hubble Space Telescope Provide a New Anchor for the SH0ES Distance Ladder

Louise Breuval, Adam G. Riess, Stefano Casertano +7

We present phase-corrected photometric measurements of 88 Cepheid variables in the core of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), the first sample obtained with the Hubble Space Telesco…

Reconnaissance with JWST of the J-region Asymptotic Giant Branch in Distance Ladder Galaxies: From Irregular Luminosity Functions to Approximation of the Hubble Constant

Siyang Li, Adam G. Riess, Stefano Casertano +5

We study stars in the J-regions of the asymptotic giant branch (JAGB) of near-infrared color magnitude diagrams in the maser host NGC 4258 and 4 hosts of 6 Type Ia supernovae (SN I…

JWST Observations Reject Unrecognized Crowding of Cepheid Photometry as an Explanation for the Hubble Tension at 8 sigma Confidence

Adam G. Riess, Gagandeep S. Anand, Wenlong Yuan +7

We present high-definition observations with the James Webb Space Telescope of >1000 Cepheids in a geometric anchor of the distance ladder, NGC4258, and in 5 hosts of 8 SNe~Ia, a f…

Tip of the Red Giant Branch Distances with JWST: An Absolute Calibration in NGC 4258 and First Applications to Type Ia Supernova Hosts

Gagandeep S. Anand, Adam G. Riess, Wenlong Yuan +12

The tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) allows for the measurement of precise and accurate distances to nearby galaxies, based on the brightest ascent of low-mass red giant branch s…

The Local Value of H

Adam G. Riess, Louise Breuval

We review the local determination of the Hubble constant, H, focusing on recent measurements of a distance ladder constructed from geometry, Cepheid variables and Type Ia super…

Crowded No More: The Accuracy of the Hubble Constant Tested with High Resolution Observations of Cepheids by JWST

Adam G. Riess, Gagandeep S. Anand, Wenlong Yuan +7

High-resolution JWST observations can test confusion-limited HST observations for a photometric bias that could affect extragalactic Cepheids and the determination of the Hubble co…

A 1.3% distance to M33 from HST Cepheid photometry

Louise Breuval, Adam G. Riess, Lucas M. Macri +7

We present a low-dispersion period-luminosity relation (PL) based on 154 Cepheids in Messier 33 (M33) with Hubble Space Telescope (HST) photometry from the PHATTER survey. Using hi…

Cluster Cepheids with High Precision Gaia Parallaxes, Low Zeropoint Uncertainties, and Hubble Space Telescope Photometry

Adam G. Riess, Louise Breuval, Wenlong Yuan +6

We present HST photometry of 17 Cepheids in open clusters and their mean parallaxes from Gaia EDR3. These parallaxes are more precise than those from individual Cepheids (G<8 mag)…

A Comprehensive Measurement of the Local Value of the Hubble Constant with 1 km/s/Mpc Uncertainty from the Hubble Space Telescope and the SH0ES Team

Adam G. Riess, Wenlong Yuan, Lucas M. Macri +15

We report observations from HST of Cepheids in the hosts of 42 SNe Ia used to calibrate the Hubble constant (H0). These include all suitable SNe Ia in the last 40 years at z<0.01,…
