Measurements of the speed at which the universe is expanding today, referred to as the Hubble constant, allow us to test the accuracy of contemporary cosmological models. Some recent measurements of the Hubble constant suggest a significant gap in the leading Lambda cold dark matter paradigm, coined the Hubble Tension...

The Nearby Supernova Factory (SNfactory; Aldering+02,04) at Berkeley Lab has developed a model for inferring the distances between Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) that is about twice as accurate as previous ones. The model uses the spectral differences between different SNe to constrain variations in their intrinsic luminosities. The...
