Still non-accelerating: age-bias correction in supernova cosmology is robust to host-progenitor age mapping

Chul Chung, Junhyuk Son, Seunghyun Park +4

We re-examine the claim by Wiseman et al. (2026) that progenitor-age bias has a negligible impact on cosmological inferences from Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). We show that their in…

Strong Progenitor Age Bias in Supernova Cosmology. III. Progenitor Age as the Physical Origin of the Type Ia Supernova Magnitude Steps with Host Properties

Seunghyun Park, Young-Wook Lee, Chul Chung +4

The standardized magnitude of a type Ia supernova (SN Ia) correlates with host-galaxy properties, and a host mass-step correction is now routinely included in SN Ia luminosity stan…

How Robust is the Cosmic Distance with Tip of Red Giant Branch against Stellar Population Variations?

Chul Chung, Young-Wook Lee, Suk-Jin Yoon +10

The tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) provides a key standard candle for extragalactic distance measurements and for refining the Hubble constant. We test its robustness by quanti…

SDSS-C4 3028: The Nearest Blue Galaxy Cluster Devoid of an Intracluster Medium

Shweta Jain, Yuanyuan Su, Andra Stroe +9

SDSS-C4 3028 is a galaxy cluster at , notable for its unusually high fraction of star-forming galaxies with 19 star-forming and 11 quiescent spectroscopically-confirmed me…

PSZ2 G181.06+48.47 III: weak-lensing analysis and merging scenario reconstruction of a low-mass cluster with exceptionally-distant radio relics

Eunmo Ahn, Hyejeon Cho, M. James Jee +7

The galaxy cluster PSZ2 G181.06+48.47 () is a post-merging system that exhibits symmetric double radio relics separated by ~2.7 Mpc. We present the first weak-lensing anal…

PSZ2 G181.06+48.47 II: radio analysis of a low-mass cluster with exceptionally-distant radio relics

Kamlesh Rajpurohit, Andra Stroe, Ewan O'Sullivan +13

We report upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope and Karl J. Jansky Very Large Array radio observations of a low-mass merging galaxy cluster PSZ2 G181.06+48.47. This exceptional…
